Here’s a Word for You: Quincunx
Somehow I got on this [tag]horoscope[/tag] e-mail list a while back. Usually I ignore the e-mails but today decided to take a look and came across a word I had truly never seen before: quincunx.
Dutifully, and feeling rather inadequate, I looked up quincunx in the dictionary. Here goes the definition: “an arrangement of five objects, as trees, in a square or rectangle, one at each corner and one in the middle.”
If you’re a Capricorn and come across a quincunx today, turn the other way.
