CANCER (June 21-July 22): Thomas Gray was a renowned 18th-century English poet best remembered for “Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard.” It was a short poem, only 986 words, less than the length of this column. It took him seven years to write it, or an average of 12 words per month. You’re embarking on a labor of love evolving at a gradual pace, too. It might not take seven years, but it’ll probably take longer than you imagine. Yet, that’s exactly how long it should take. It’s a character-building, life-defining project not to be rushed.
