KEEP REFRIGERATED
Star Gays
by Martia Proba April 15-30
This is Taurus lime! Not only the Sun but also
Jupiter, the planet of benevolence, is in the sign of
Taurus this period. Taurus people are wonderfully
sensitive to others'needs. Male Taurcans are like
overgrown teddy bears, while the female of the sign
tends toward the Koala.
TAURUS After the 19th, the Sun
and Jupiter in your first house and
Venus in your second house promise
a fortunate financial outlook indeed.
Time to find a rich Pisces who wants romance with
a determined, stubborn person such as yourself.
GEMINI This period is an excellent
one in which to do some self
change work and what better season
in which to do this arduous task.
After the 20th, intense stress will ease.
Listen for a romantic message from an earth sign.
CANCER Make a resolution on the New Moon of
the 16th to get out with friends and
partake of more social activities.
Begin to carry the resolution out
after the 19th. An Aries could be
important at your job on the 16th.
LEO After the 20th, your career
may well take off. Be extra careful
of your health on the 23rd and 24th
while the Moon is in your sign.
This is a time of effective
communication for you, so speak up!
i VIRGO Travel is advantageous
l for you after the 19th. If you're
taking a business trip, romance is
possible on the road. Many planets are
in earth signs now, so feelings may be hard to reach.
LIBRA The Sun in your 8th house after the 19th
adds to Jupiter benevolence in your
latest attempt to salvage a bad
situation. The Moon in your sign on
the 29th urges you to postpone
maKinga decision, which is always good news for
an air sign.
SCORPIO Your prospects for
joining with others this period are
highlighted by three planets in
Capricorn, but old retrograde Pluto
may lead you into trouble on the night
of the 30th.
SAGITARIUS You fiery archers
are just surrounded by health issues
and opportunities now. The Sun
and Jupiter are both in your sixth
house after the 19th so any exercise
you get (in or out of bed) should be helpful. Take it
.easy on the 25th.
CAPRICORN You get a good
chance to be creative in love on the
20th. Find a Gemini and propose
something unusual to both of them. If
the answer isn't what you want, at least it'll be
^entertaining.
I AQUARIUS This is an excellent
time to settle up old issues with
family members. On the 28th,
Uranus will help you find new meaning in the word
"patience."

PISCES Look out for a Cancer
with mysterious eyes on the 21st -
make no promises. This is a good
time to put educational plans into action.
ARIES Another year older but not
necessarily deeper in debt since the
Sun helps your financial problems
along after the 19th. The New Moon on
the 16th is no time for a new romance.

Dear Nadisa
"DEAR NADISA" arrived on the
2:40 pm southbound train in search of
the Lesbian community. Is there
something on your mind? Send her
your questions care of this newspaper
(confidentiality assured) and look for
your answer right here each issue.
Dear Nadisa:
My lover of one year is vegetarian
and I am a devout meat-eater. Why
she feels she has to preach the
"virtues" of sprouts, roots and buds
every time I put beef or fowl in my
mouth is beyond me. I feel each
woman to her own vittles, you know?
Say "YES" to garlic bologna, deviled
weiners, barbecued spare ribs and
chicken livers wrapped, then baked
in bacon slices. I'm with you.
However, realize that some honeys
"preach" because they care about
you and want you to be as healthy as
they think possible. You can remind
her of the function of your incisor
teeth or draw up a list of women
champions who eat meat. Try to
avoid the one about the pesticides
that are sprayed on fruits and
vegetables. And don't talk about the
genetic engineering that is going on
to "improve" the harvests of these
eats. Why don't you make her happy
and have a raw spinach leaf from
time to time.
Dear Nadisa:
I am 18 years old and wildly in love
with a woman in her 50s. I have gone
calling on this woman and expressed
my intentions which are honorable
and serious. I know she is attracted to
me, but she says our ages are a
barrier. Nadisa, I truly love this
woman. How can I convince her that
my feelings are sincere?
/ am sure she is already convinced
that your feelings are genuine. And 1
have no doubt she is attracted to you.
It is flattering to have someone desire
you. On the other hand, it is fruitless
to bestow "wild love" on someone
when it is neither desired by the
woman your heart is fluttering for
nor reciprocated by her. One of the
many allures of an older woman is
her EXPERIENCE in the ways of the
heart. You must show your maturity
by being more realistic about your
ability to sustain a healthy, fulfilling
and lasting relationship with a
woman who is 30-plus years older
than you. Develop the friendship you
already have with her. You may be
quite surprised at the satisfaction you
both can share. Follow her lead.
Don't push. My Momma used to tell
me, "If you force it, you'll break it.”
