  • Capricorn You will simultaneously break two of the Ten Commandments this week when you disrespect your parents by murdering them.
  • Aquarius Although initially humorous, the apron that you purchase this week will ultimately be unable to overthrow and crush patriarchal society's confining gender roles.
