PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20):

magic  (ma' jik), n.

A mysterious event or process that seemingly refutes the known laws of science. A willed transformation of one's own state of mind. A surprising triumph that exceeds all expectations. Something that works, though no one understands why. The impossible becoming possible. "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." (Arthur C. Clarke.) A quality predominant in the lives of Pisceans during the period July 1 through July 20, 2009.
