How do we celebrate Martin Luther King, Jr. weekend? Well, we serve and parade and march in protest of the status quo, of course. Alas, the right to peacefully assemble brings some traffic snarls, so be advised and perhaps ditch the car this weekend. Plan accordingly, astrology fans: One event is during Capricorn season (#goals), while the others kick off Aquarius season (#squad).
