Who's afraid of the big, bad desert?

So, I was sitting at a bar a couple nights ago, killing some time. I picked up a local paper, and flipped to the back. Free will astrology, alternative horoscopes. Scanned down to ye ole Libra, and THIS is what I read:

I'm guessing that the dry season will soon be arriving in your part of the world. The waterholes may dwindle. But that could ultimately prove to be a lucky development, because it will bring you into contact with interesting life forms you might not have otherwise met.

Now, I am not one to read TOO much into astrological signs, but I may be heading out to traverse 100 700 or so miles of the desert in the driest year ever recorded in California.
