Rhetorical Horoscope brings Ethos to Day

without comments

If anyone would like to know what I study in grad school, one must read my horoscope for today:

Scorpio:

One of your many specialties is the art of persuasion. You can talk just about anyone into just about anything — if they’re still breathing, at least. So now, when you’re feeling the need to communicate something important to someone equally important — to convince someone of something you know they need to know — there’s really no way for you to fail. Unless, of course, they leave the vicinity or are already committed to holding their breath for a very long time.

Yes, one of the definitions I use for Rhetoric is the “art of persuasion.” I guess my horoscope is telling me I’m in the right field of study!
