He Tried To Consult The Stars

Like most cards, today's has a few layered meanings.

First, there's a reminder not to take yourself too seriously. John Lennon loved clever wordplay, and he engages in that in the sentence he wrote on this sketch.

"He tried to consult the stars, but no one returns his calls."

A play on astrology and celebrity (and there's plenty of overlap in both). Further, you probably know someone with a casual interest in astrology, whose interest only goes as far as finding out something good about themselves; if it's too complicated, or reveals something they don't want revealed, their interest wanes.

There's also a bit of "a watched pot never boils". The look on John's face is anger, no longer just determined to try and will the phone to ring, but shifting into anger that it hasn't, yet.

How often is that the case? We are so eager for something to happen that, if it doesn't happen fast enough for our liking, we start to feel anger and resentment. It should have happened by now! Why is the Universe against me?

Take a breath and keep your sense of humor. And remember to repeat that, as needed!
