BRIDGE WORLD: HOROSCOPE ( Part 3 )..................

• Leo ( July 23rd - August 22nd ) : You've been going through a bad time lately, yes ? Whenever misfortune rains on you it pours. Time now to restore your pride. Because let's face it, you are in the main a fine bridge player. But you do need to remember who you are. You're a big cat.....a predator.....a beast.....a jungle king. So start looking for game. Target weak opponents and extract maximum penalties from them, whenever they wander into doubling territory. Bid wildly at times, forcing weaker opponents to enter the bidding at dangerously high levels............. ready to bite their heads off each time they raise them above the parapet. Believe that you are The King at the table, and roar triumphantly after each and every successful board. Never allow yourself again to become the tame pussy cat, which no one ever fears. Because if you do, your score-card will end up like all the others........straight into the litter-bin.
• Virgo ( August 23rd - September 22nd ) : Your feminine side has played havoc with your bidding and play at the tables. Your big bottoms are in keeping with your massive boobs. All too often you start the session in erratic form. It then becomes impossible for you to recover, having fallen so far behind the early leaders. This situation becomes more acute when Uranus is fidgety, and the rings of Saturn are shifting around. You need to get yourself sitting in a relaxed and comfortably way. This might help your emotions to settle down. Base all your decisions at the table on logic, common sense and clinical calculations. Don't rely on feminine instinct and intuition : these do not help you to get good scores. Avoid hell-bent notions that your partner is to blame. And for goodness sake, stay abreast of all the new bidding conventions, which are far superior to the ones you currently employ. It is imperative for you to use every macho instinct that currently lays dormant within your feminine psyche, if you are to avoid ending up in the rear half of the field.
