Today’s Oracle takes us to the Scorpio monthly for Jan. 8, 2007

You will be able to afford just about anything you want this year, but stick to what makes you feel good about yourself. Most of this will be surprisingly inexpensive and at the same time, tend to come from exotic places. Anything knotted by hand, such as macram?; cane furniture — but black, and for the big indulgence, a wrought iron gate with a functioning lock. Speaking of locks, embark on an upgrade and improvement program, and make sure that every door latches smoothly and cleanly. This will remind you to protect and value what you have. Self-esteem is something you usually take for granted, but this year, keep the reminders everywhere. In plants, go for the dangerous kind: nightshade, oleander and fox glove.
Note, The Oracle is a random selection from the Eric Francis horoscope archives. Each day we publish one entry from among the 10,000 in our database. It’s a little slice of horoscope history — but chosen by our Oracle program, which always speaks to the present moment. New horoscopes are published each Friday plus twice a month in Planet Waves subscriber edition and Planet Waves Light.
