elixir of life

Sixty-six-year-old Taurus actor Jack Nicholson is a paragon of receptivity. "I'm dying to have my mind changed," he told "Esquire" magazine. "I'm probably the only liberal who read Treason, by Ann Coulter. I like listening to everybody. This is the elixir of life." Nicholson's refreshing declaration should be your words to live by in the next couple of weeks, Taurus: It's your astrological season of expansion and experimentation. Don't just grudgingly agree to open your eyes and have your theories challenged. Learn to love the uncanny stretching sensation.
