Sara's dilemma ...
"Four years ago I moved to New York City from Arkansas to pursue an acting career. It's gone ok, it's had its ups and downs. Recently, I've been thinking about going back to grad school and I applied to some schools closer to home. My parents are so excited about this that they have offered to pay my rent and buy me a car if I go home. Do I stay in New York City and continue to pursue a career in acting, or do I go home, go back to school and let my parents take care of me for a little while?"
Rachael enlists the help of two special people to give Sara some guidance: on one side is Rachael's mom Elsa, armed with her own brand of "good, hard core" advice like the kind she's given Rachael over the years. On the other side is astrologer Greg Tufaro, who looks to Sarah's star charts to determine the path she should take. Whose advice will Sara choose?
Greg says:
"I want her to give it six more months. She feels that she has no luck, like nothing good is happening. Jupiter, the planet of luck -- she feels like it's reaching the bottom of her chart, but it's going to start moving up. It's going to start bringing her luck and it's going to hit planets in her tenth house, which is the house of career. I'm telling you, six months from now if she doesn't stay here, she's going to kick herself. She's going to ask herself, 'Why didn't I stay here?'"
Elsa says:
"Duh! I think the decision's been made already because you're tormenting yourself so. Maybe you've set a time limit for yourself and you've reached that. Maybe you need to get away. It doesn't mean that you let go of your dreams and hopes. Don't ever stop imagining you're an actor if that's what you want to be because the mind is constantly putting those signals out, but it may be timing. With this whole new thing you're thinking of doing, it may be that break you need. And you'll eventually get to a place where the mind will signal and you'll find your place."
