I am working on some more serious posts to share with you and intend to have some material ready soon. In the meantime, I thought we might enjoy a little more song fun together.
Venus signifies 'woman' in astrology. Western society's beliefs about what constitutes the ideal woman have changed over time. What qualities should she possess? Is she to be plump and round, or tall and thin? Domestic, or worldly? Sweet and mild, smart and sassy, or some combination?
Here's one modern picture of an ideal woman that might put a smile on your face. It did mine! This twenty-first century gal has it all goin' on, at least in her tenth house. Her second house is in good shape, too. For your enjoyment, I present to you Ms. Modern Venus:
Short Skirt, Long Jacket (by Cake)
I want a girl with a mind like a diamond
I want a girl who knows what's best
I want a girl with shoes that cut
And eyes that burn like cigarettes
I want a girl with the right allocations
Who's fast and thorough and sharp as a tack
She's playing with her jewelry, she's putting up her hair
She's touring the facility and picking up slack
I want a girl with a short skirt and a lonnnng jacket
I want a girl who gets up early (gets up early!)
I want a girl who stays up late (stays up late!)
I want a girl with uninterrupted prosperity
Who uses a machete to cut through red tape
With fingernails that shine like justice
And a voice that is dark like tinted glass
She is fast and thorough and sharp as a tack
She's touring the facility and picking up slack
I want a girl with a short skirt and a lonnnnng.... lonnng jacket
I want a girl with a smooth liquidation
I want a girl with good dividends
At Citibank we will meet accidentally
We'll start to talk when she borrows my pen
She wants a car with a cup-holder arm rest
She wants a car that will get her there
She's changing her name from Kitty to Karen
She's trading her MG for a white Chrysler La Baron
I want a girl with a short skirt and a lonnnnggggggggg jacket
