'We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars.'
Oscar Wilde, Lady Windermere's Fan, 1892, Act III

The St Kilda Writer's Festival is pleased and amused to present:

How To Guess Anyone's Sun Sign in Six Seconds: An Interactive Astrology Lesson With The Australian's Mystic Medusa

The fabulous (in all senses of the word) Mystic Medusa ­ astrologer, writer, social commentator and pop cultural attaché ­ will present an evening of instruction, entertainment and good humour for one night only on Saturday April 29th.

This is your chance to come to grips with one of the most ancient forms of spiritual wisdom and self-knowledge in as informal setting as possible without actually being in the gutter.

Includes Q and A session.

• Which Sun Sign is the most beautiful of all?
• Are Virgos really the kinkiest?
• Are there any Leos not obsessed with their hair?
• Do Arians really know everything?
• Is it true that Libran men always smell nice?

And why Mystic Medusa at a writers festival?
Well she's a bloody good writer for a start. Try her books ­ Mystic Medusa's Astro Guide and Mystic Medusa's Soulmating (both published by Murdoch Books) ­ post-modern astrology guides for readers who don't buy astrology guides. Or log on to her website at www.mysticmedusa.com.

Don't miss an audience with Australia's Queen of Surreal Astrology

"Mystic is an astrologer for our times: a post-postmodern voice for an ancient and esoteric art form; a writer who is consistently in your face." John McDonald

Where: Theatreworks, Acland Street
When: Saturday 29th April at 8pm

About Mystic Medusa
She has been The Australian newspaper's resident astrologiste since 1997, where she has developed a cult following, including several celebrities, politicians and moguls who - in the strictest confidence - rely on Mystic's surreal astro-tips.

She has over a million hits per month on her website. It includes online Oracles and Mediatrix, her horribly addictive blog (www.mysticmedusa.com)

Her books What Your Friends Won't Tell You, Your Sun Sign Will and Soulmating are published in Australia, N.Z. the U.K. and the United States.

For her St Kilda presentation, Mystic is going to reveal the
super-surprising results of her juvenile but irresistible Astro-Poll; Which Sun Sign Is The Best In Bed? The Worst Flatmate? The Most Popular?

Her first novel - The Kylie Diaries - an hilarious romp through the life of a dingbatty Gemini who obsessively hates Barry, her husbands ghastly best friend and foiler of all her schemes - is due out early next year.

Her sun sign is confidential, lest she be accused of bias, but she admits to being born in the year of the Snake.
