I know I promised, but...

Can someone help me decode Breszny this week? Seriously? Multiple opinions encouraged. I need just a little hint, people. I can be dense sometimes (which, I know, is the point of this horoscope in the first place).

"Imagine this scene. You're really thirsty--so dehydrated that you're feeling faint. Yet here's the weird thing: You're walking along the bank of a wide river that's so clear you could see the bottom if you looked. But you're not looking. In fact, you seem oblivious to the surging force of nature just a few yards away. Is it invisible to you? Are you so preoccupied with your suffering that you're blind to the very source that would end your suffering? Up ahead you see a man. As you approach, you see he's holding a glass of water. You run to him and beg him to let you drink. He readily agrees. Gratefully, you guzzle the precious liquid, then thank him profusely. As you walk away, he calls after you, "By the way, there's a lot more water over there," and he points to the river. Do you hear him? If you hear him, do you believe him? Or do you keep walking, hoping to find another man with another glass somewhere up ahead?"

The immediate, obvious message: You're relying on other people to give you what you could easily take for yourself.

I can think of several things where that might fit.

The other question, I guess, that would fit better at the end is "What's preventing you from hearing what he says?"

I had a similar take on this; what we lions need is all around us readily available, but we go off on a journey to find the faraway somethings rather than seeing what's around us.

The fulfillment of your deepest cravings is within your reach if only you will take it. Stop looking for other people who can give you a little of what you want, when you can have it all if you can only see it to grasp it.

Very nice. Want to try your hand at Virgo's? The only good thing I can say about it is that it makes more sense than the paragraph for Sagittarius!
