BRIDGE PLAYERS' HOROSCOPE ( Part 6 ).............

• Aquarius ( January 21st - February 18th ) : Any political commentator would describe players like yourself as "complete and utter wets". So let's face facts: your recent results suggest that you are all at sea with your game, playing in competitions where you are clearly out of your depth, and sinking to the bottom without trace. Board after board you find yourself in hot water with your reckless and irresponsible bidding, but your real failing is your inability to tap in to partners' thinking and signals. If you want to urn their respect , then get onto their wave-lengths. Develop a thirst for success. Adopt the current trends in strategic and tactical bidding. Then perhaps, you'll notice your partners being well pleased.
• Pisces ( February 19th - March 19th ) : Do you find yourself swimming against the tide, floundering around without hope of success, and merely ending up being the proverbial fish in a barrel......dead easy to shoot ? Are you taken in by the opponents' deceptive bids.... hook, line and sinker ? To most observers your game is so bad, you're like a fish out of water. In another world , you would be a mouse, where the opponents would be cheese-eating cats.......just waiting for you with baited breath. Well rest assured, Neptune may come to your rescue, now that it is in conjunction with Pluto. The time is certainly right for you to adopt a new school of thought on how to bid and signal information to partner. So now is the time for change : there's no plaice whatsoever for any of your out-dated and out-moded ideas. You must spend some serious dosh, perchace books that explain the modern game, and follow the authors' advice.
