Importance of Date Selection in Feng Shui

How important is date selection in Feng Shui? Date selection is in fact one of the most important factor in Feng Shui. Often, date selection can be considered s a single subject when you learn or study Feng Shui. Without a good date selected for the execution of Feng Shui, your Feng Shui setup might seems to have no effect at all, or worst of all, bad effects. Most of these bad effects are caused by Sui Po or San Sha (3 killings) of the date or time used to activate the Feng Shui setup or changes. Hence if the Feng Shui setup or changes are done on inauspicious date or time, it will likely brings misfortune to him/her.

There are however plenty of date selection methods out there each with its strength and weakness. Just to list a few date selection systems here:

  • Xuan Kong Da Kua Date Selection
  • Great Sun Date Selection
  • Five Elements Date Selection
  • 4 Pillars Date Selection
  • 9 Stars Date Selection
  • Dong's Date Selection
  • Qi Men Dun Jia Date Selection
  • So under what situations are is date selection required? Generally, people use date selections for all sorts of events including start of new businesses, property developments, business negotiations, house renovations, shifting of beds, setting up Feng Shui changes, burials, etc.

    Some Feng Shui masters tend to suggest to their clients the appropriate changes to their home or working environment without suggesting the date and time to perform these changes. So the next time you engage a Feng Shui master to perform an audit, do remember to ask for an auspicious date to maximise the good effects.

    Can A Psychic Really Tell You If You Will Really Get Back Together?

    Throughout the years I have received many calls from men and women who want to know if their relationship is over. My heart goes out to all of you who have loved and lost. It could be a very scary process. It is also very tricky and a 50/50 chance for any psychic to perceive if this person will return to you. Many various scenarios have happened over the years to convince me that many random situations can occur for your lost love to return.

    One truth always will be discovered in this lifetime for all which is: Was it or was it not meant to be?

    We all have many soul mates our parents are our soul mates, our teachers, friends, relatives, children etc. Many of us are predestined to meet and be together. In most cases it's only for a limited time. Just to learn the necessary lessons to get on to the next important relationship in your life.

    When a client consults with me I am usually able to determine how many relationship transitions they have prior to a relationship of permanence.

    For example, Mary could have 2 more relationships prior to meeting a more stable suitable partner. Since we all have the free will and power to change and avert things Mary can adjust the way she chooses men to potentially attract this person faster. In some cases, I can help people with the answers as to why this relationship ended by channeling on the other partner. Another alternative is to research their former love's astrological chart. Most often when there is a break up, there may also be an astrological explanation. A chart can show personality traits, needs, frustrations and also give an indication of a the presence of a planetary alignment that may have a more random explanation as to why the break-up occurred.

    For example, many spring romances that start and end every quickly due to a certain planetary alignment known as mercury retrograde. It is a period of time during the year where the energy of the planet mercury revolves in a backwards motion. This can result in a sudden end or upheaval in a relationship. Many psychics and astrologers have their own explanation as to what can happen during the three weeks of time that a mercury retrograde can occur. The one point of agreement is that the break-ups that occur during this time are very unexpected and swift. The dates in which mercury retrograde can occur each year can be easily found on many astrological calenders available for search on line.

    Based upon whatever reading a interpretation a client receives during a reading. They need to remember that in the end they are in control of choosing to make a final attempt at contacting their lost love to try make amends or move on.

    In a very spiritual aspect God made us whole and perfect with everything we need with the goal in mind that we go out and love and help the world and not just keep all of our love in reserves for just "one" person. This means reaching out to people and giving love ( by giving you automatically receive) .

    Many of my clients have found when they go out to give their love and charity to the world and they take their mind off of meeting that one special soulmate, all of a sudden, their soul mate appears.

    Conventionally speaking, most experts may advise it doesn't matter why he/she left. You are a valuable human being. Never let someone's exit devalue who you are. You do not need a man or woman to validate your worth in this world. There is no reason with the growing population on this earth that you cannot attract a better person towards you. I have always noticed when speaking with a client, they always describe a similar scenario of a love relationship that ended without closure.

    The real question here is if you can handle the truth and how do you know if the psychic is right?

    Here is an simple visualization exercise you can do to help you see the truth for yourself. Picture yourself in a movie theater. You are watching a movie of you and your mate on the screen. There is a calendar on the upper right side of the screen. See the calendar advance month by month and watch how your picture changes. Is this person still with you or are you apart. Is this picture far away or clear and close up. Is it blurry or clear in focus. What is significant about this picture. If your picture is far away then chances are behavior will be set in motion to separate you. If it is close up there is still a chance for you to take the initiative to work things out. I ask people to take two minutes a day to do this exercise. It is important that you write down what happens so you can gage your accuracy.

    Chinese Astrology Compatibility

    There is a belief amongst the Chinese community that those who are born four years apart are more compatible than those who are born six year apart. And those that are born 6 years apart are likely to be less compatible. Do you know why?

    In the 12 Animals Zodiac system of astrology, our character is influenced by our year of birth. For example those born in the year of the rat are intelligent and suspicious while those born in the year of the horse are generous and loves freedom. Based on our year of birth we are imbued with certain characteristics that make us more of less compatible with each other.

    According to the ancient Chinese, the Monkey, Rat and Dragon form a compatible set. They have characteristics that make them more compatible with each other. The other compatible sets are the Snake, Rooster and Ox; the Pig, Rabbit and Goat and the Tiger, Horse and Dog. If you check the year of birth you notice that they are four years apart. For example those born in 1964 are Rats, 1968 are Dragons and 1972 are Monkeys!

    The Rat on the other hand is supposedly less compatible than the Horse. They form an incompatible set. The other incompatible sets are between Ox and Goat, Tiger and Monkey, Rabbit and Rooster, Dragon and Dog and between the Snake and Pig. If you check the year of birth you will notice that they are six year apart!

    The Chinese astrology compatibility tools that you find on the Internet are largely based on the above mentioned principles of combination and clash. Most will also include more combinations and clashes that I have not mentioned above but I hope you get the idea.

    What if you and your spouse form an incompatible set? Do not panic. Did you notice that I used the word ‘supposedly’ many times? In practice our character is also heavily influenced by the month, day and hour of birth which is not taken into consideration in the above examples. Therefore it is entirely possible for a Rat person to display characteristics of other animals (influences from the month, day and hour of birth)!

    The Best Way to Give a Psychic Reading

    The best way to ever give a psychic reading is directly from your heart. Millions of people are in need of getting a psychic reading almost daily. You have to just allow yourself to come forward in order to give someone a lot of love and a lot of psychic advice.

    People that get psychic readings are usually interested in how you can help them to see something that may not be so clear to them. This may involve you spending more time during a psychic reading with another person or it may make you feel as though you have to discipline yourself in order to give someone an accurate psychic reading. Sometimes a good psychic reading takes a lot out of you spiritually. You often have to practice mind control and feel like someone is going to give you a lot of love.

    A person that wishes to receive a psychic reading usually has some idea in the back of their mind as to what the psychic reading should look like once it is all over. If you find that sometimes you can’t understand something, then you should ask a master psychic who will be able to open your eyes to new and different things. A good master psychic will be able to show and tell you how to read better.

    Becoming a master psychic is never easy. It takes a whole lot of discipline and a lot of meditation. You have to practice mind control on a daily basis if you are ever to advance yourself in a psychic career. The more focused you are, the more you will be able to focus on a clients problems and you will be able to better instruct them on what to do. A good psychic client will always allow you to read from your heart. Other psychic clients may give you a hard time during a psychic reading and pressure you to give them more information than what you know you are able to give.

    Can a Psychic Predict If You Will Marry a Murderer?

    With several murder stories in the news from Nicole Simpson to Laci Peterson and the unforgettable John Bobbitt, many of my clients have asked me if they are likely to have a marriage that could lead to murder. There is no simple answer to this question. After watching several news interviews of the victims in these situations. They all expressed coming to a point of feeling afraid of their spouse and no longer trusting them or their whereabouts. In some cases where children are involved, they expressed fear of leaving their children a round them when they were in a bad mood.

    Many of these victims had problems moving on with their own life because their spouse consistently harassed them and would not let go. In other cases, their spouse was cheating, and decided to sabotage their own family as way of seeking revenge on the cheating spouse. I can mainly stress to you that if there is ever a situation where you are in a relationship and the contact with your love interest starts to escalate where arguments get out of hand, or they threaten you or taking their own life if you leave them, they refuse to disassociate with dangerous persons or display psychotic or irrational behavior, then you know it is time to check out.

    This patterns need to be recognized early. In many of these cases, the spouses waited too long to leave and still entrusted their mate with responsibilities or watching children. From an astrological perspective there are signs that mix like oil and water. Where long-term relationships can be turbulent: Please also check your love interests ascendant. May be the sign you are born under may not be compatible but your ascendants are.

    This list is only for turbulent love interests and marriages.

    Pisces can be turbulent with: Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Leo, Sagittarius, Aquarius and Pisces

    Aquarius can be turbulent with: Taurus, Cancer, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius and Pisces

    Capricorn can be turbulent with: Aries, Cancer, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius, and Capricorn

    Sagittarius can be turbulent with: Taurus, Cancer, Virgo, Scorpio, Capricorn, and Pisces

    Libra can be turbulent with: Aries, Taurus, Cancer, Virgo, Scorpio, Capricorn, and Pisces

    Virgo can be turbulent with: Aries, Gemini, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius, Aquarius, and Pisces

    Leo can be turbulent with: Taurus, Gemini (only if not faithful), Cancer, Virgo, Scorpio, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces.

    Cancer can be turbulent with: Aries, Gemini, Cancer, Scorpio (if there is alcohol/ drug use and is not faithful), Sagittarius, Capricorn, and Aquarius.

    Gemini can be turbulent with: Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Virgo, Scorpio, Sagittarius, and Pisces

    Taurus can be turbulent with: Aries, Gemini, Leo, Libra, Scorpio, Taurus, Aquarius, and Pisces

    Aries can be turbulent with: Pisces, Capricorn, Libra, Virgo, Cancer, and Taurus.

    There are 12 astrological signs and most of us are only compatible with half of the zodiac. Some of us less than half. It is important to choose your soul mate carefully and recognize the difference between infatuation and true love.

    11 Ways Nurses Can Become Mystics

    What is a Mystic?

    Mysticism from the Greek (mystikos) "an initiate" (of the Eleusinian Mysteries) (mysteria) meaning ("initiation") is the pursuit of achieving communion or identity with, or conscious awareness of, ultimate reality, the divine, spiritual truth, or God through direct experience, intuition, or insight; and the belief that such experience is an important source of knowledge, understanding, and wisdom.

    Traditions may include a belief in the literal existence of realities beyond empirical perception, or a belief that a true human perception of the world transcends logical reasoning or intellectual comprehension. A person delving in these areas may be called a Mystic.

    In many cases, the purpose of mysticism and mystical disciplines such as meditation is to a reach of state of return or re-integration to Godhead. A common theme in mysticism is that the mystic and all of reality are One. The purpose of mystical practices is to achieve that oneness in experience, to transcend limited identity and re-identify with the all that is. The state oneness has many names depending on the mystical system: The Kingdom of Heaven, the Birth of the Spirit, the Third Awakening, Illumination, Union (Christianity), Self-Realization, Reintegration, Nirvana (Buddhism), Samadhi (Hinduism), and Gnosis, to name a few.

    The term "mysticism" is often used to refer to beliefs which go beyond the purely exoteric practices of mainstream religions, while still being related to or based in a mainstream religious doctrine. For example, Kabbalah is a significant mystical movement within Judaism, and Sufism is a significant mystical movement within Islam. Gnosticism refers to both a mystical movement within Christianity and various mystical sects which arose out of Christianity. Some have argued that Christianity itself was a mystical sect that arose out of Judaism. While Eastern religion tends to find the concept of mysticism redundant, non-traditional knowledge and ritual are considered as Esotericism, for example Buddhism's Vajrayana. Vedanta is considered the mystical branch of Hinduism.

    1) Learn To Love All beings As God Loves

    2) Learn to surrender to the innate wisdom that is within all of us

    3) Learn to transcend learned habits, change course and get in line with your true nature

    4) Learn that we are all equal in Divine Radiance

    5) Become committed to your own transformation

    6) Accept the impermanence of life and look at that which lasts, which is permanent, such as Love and Joy

    7) Be aware of every moment as a witness--becoming One with the sea of consciousness which is free, nonjudgemental and loving

    8) Balance the male and female with in yourself by detaching as witness, loving ALL at the same time

    9) Fill your life with nonsuperficials, such as Love, Joy and Communion With The Divine

    10) Nurses in the Middle Ages sucked the wounds of lepars and healed them. They did this by "Loving until it hurts," in the Saint Francis and Mother Teresa tradition. This is called, "Radical Acceptance." Acceptance of self and others. Seeing with clarity the Divine in All

    11) Fill your life with a sense of love, with Abundance, with Prosperity. See your life as Eternal, Trascendent and Immortal. Give your life away, and know it can never be diminished. There is no lack. You are full of a loving and caring essence. Your Heart Shines Through All!!

    Born With The Moon In Scorpio

    According to Astrology, the exact location of the moon during the time of your birth determines your emotional reaction to the world around you. While the astrological sun colors your outwardly aggressive actions, the moon dictates your inner, passive or receptive urges. The moon is your "female energy" - she represents the type of nurturing energy you project, and/or the type of mothering you received as a child. Today we will discuss the Moon in Scorpio.

    The Scorpio Moon: Joy and Pain

    The Moon is literally in its fall, or denouement, in this sign. For this reason, Scorpio Moon folks are known to grapple with themselves on the inside. They typically experience all emotions extremely, deeply and totally - ecstasy, sorrow, elation... and yes, their tempers, when provoked, can be explosive. To complicate matters, Scorpio Moon people regard their own emotions as a source of vulnerability and therefore try to keep their true feelings under wraps. So, it's not surprising that while many Scorpio Moons are traveling this earth feeling everything very intensely, they're also wearing this kind of detached look. After all, if they were to be found out, there would be very grave consequences indeed. What those consequences might be is anybody's guess... but if the Scorpio Moon is the one doing the imagining, it's sure to be quite catastrophic.

    The Scorpio Moon, in a nutshell: intensity. Intense likes, intense dislikes, intense fascination, intense disgust... and yes, in keeping with the general Scorpio reputation, intense love affairs. This is a very black-and-white, all-or-nothing moon with extremely fixed notions about things. If you're loved by a Scorpio Moon then you are loved fiercely, totally and completely; but if you're despised by a Scorpio Moon, then you may as well not exist. And it's quite possible in dealing with this turbulent moon native that both emotions may be directed at you at different points in this lifetime. If a Scorpio Moon perceives that you have slighted them in some way... better make good immediately, or run and hide until the mood passes, because in all likelihood, revenge is being plotted against YOUR head!

    The Scorpio Moon: Offsetting the Drama With Private Relaxation

    Scorpio Moon people tend to go through life acting on hunches, "reading between the lines" - picking up subtle nonverbal cues, moods, intentions, underlying messages and such. Indeed, someone with this moon placement may get a very different meaning from the same conversation heard by someone with a more literal and pragmatic mind. This is not only quite distracting to the moon native, but when they react to these perceptions it often leads to undesired consequences and drama. Thus, the irony of the Scorpio Moon; being consumed by the very internal composition one despises in himself, and attracting drama-infused situations as a direct result of trying to avoid them.

    A troubled Scorpion Moon person should allow herself some distance from time to time... a private sanctuary where she can sort out her emotions, get a healthy perspective and then emerge from the "cocoon" with renewed inner peace and a higher purpose in mind. Indeed, reflection and meditation feels quite natural to this introspective moon native and is encouraged as a way to take the edge off and temper the extreme moods. A deeply sensitive soul, capable of great courage and strength... there is much room for psychological growth and wisdom to be gained with this lunar positioning.

    The Scorpio Moon: A Powerful Force for Good OR Evil

    As with any sign, there are both positives and negatives to the Scorpio Moon placement. The sign of Scorpio has been assigned two symbols- the Scorpion and the Eagle. The former, a covert creature who stealths along the ground; and the latter, a symbol of power and might, soaring into the high heavens. Lows and highs... the Scorpio Moon is quite familiar with both states of consciousness... more than most, in fact.

    Spiritually evolved Scorpio Moon souls can (and should) harness the gift of their emotional intensity and move proverbial mountains with it. If a Scorpio Moon person is intrinsically good, then that goodness of spirit can manifest itself in divine ways... extreme compassion and generosity toward fellow man, great and unshakeable integrity, impeccably honest conduct in business and personal affairs, and a permanent seat on the side of righteousness and justice. An enlightened Scorpio Moon will pledge his whole self to any and every cause he deems important; profess his undying faith to his family, home, country; and even make the ultimate sacrifice in a lifelong promise to serve God. Yes, this moon placement is often found in religious leaders, as the spiritual aspect is heavily emphasized here.

    Less evolved Scorpio moons, on the other hand, are not averse to using abject means to get what they want. The concentration of power in this sign placement has led many a wayward Scorpio lunar native down a dark and devious path of corruption. In direct contrast to their enlightened counterparts; illicit affairs, illegal and underhanded dealings, petty and deceitful behavior, psychological turmoil, and loyalty to no one but themselves are trademark signs of the afflicted Scorpio Moon. Again, this is all due to the fact that Scorpio is in the moon's fall, thus making emotions feel uncomfortable, unnatural and all-encompassing. With the all-or-nothing theme at work, indeed this placement will produce some extreme results.

    The Scorpio Moon and Sex

    It has been said that sexual impulses drive the Scorpio Moon native moreso than other moon signs, perhaps because they radiate such passion and intensity that they're forever in need of release. The Scorpio Moon is equated with transcendental lovemaking or "soul sex" in which the participants experience an exalted state of consciousness by way of the physical sex act itself. Clearly, while "sexual nirvana" is hardly a day-to-day occurrence, this moon person has been labeled as having an extra potential for such achievements. At the very least, this moon person admits to having a high sex drive, even allowing sex to affect his or her decisions at certain points in life.

    The Scorpio Moon as a Nurturer

    The Scorpio Moon Nurturer is fiercely protective and psychologically all-consuming. Scorpio Moon Mothers, or "Smothers" as they are sometimes known, must learn to temper their intensity. If the Scorpio lover is possessive in her affairs, the Scorpio mother is equally possessive of her children. It will be her ongoing challenge to "let go." These moon natives must get a reign on that fretfulness that leads to strings of sleepless nights, and interfere less in the daily trials and tribulations of their young sons and daughters. Scorpio Moon Mothers must generally permit themselves to chill out, cool down and back off. An earth-sign or earth moon-sign partner can lend a comforting and grounding effect for the Scorpio nurturer who has let the worrying get out of hand yet again.

    Other signature themes and preoccupations of the Scorpio Moon: secrets, mysteries, severity, psychology, power, control, passion, revenge, obsession, loyalty, sex, depth of feeling, ethics, spirituality, solitude, death. No, the Scorpio moon is surely not made of green cheese, but rather some of the most powerful facets of human existence. This lunar native must learn to embrace the reality of his or her own emotions as opposed to running or hiding from them. If the Scorpio Moon person can navigate his or her own spirit to a higher and more exalted place, he will recognize the potential for complete and total happines that lies within himself... and the transformation will be powerful for certain.

    Astrology Signs Reveal Hidden Attitudes

    An attitude is an opinion, a set way of looking at something. Your specific attitudes can be seen quite clearly in your astrological chart. For example, if Mercury was in the sign of Cancer at the time you were born, you would have a very different attitude toward the home than a person born with Mercury in Sagittarius. This is only one attitude. There are many more that are revealed by the various planetary positions in the twelve signs of the zodiac.

    It is very important to know what your attitudes are if you really want to understand yourself. This information will also help you understand what attitudes you need to change in order to get along well with other people.

    Obviously, some attitudes are positive, creative, and support your goals. They work for you. However, there may be other attitudes that you will want to change, or need to change if they are preventing you from getting what you want or obstruct your relationship with other people.

    So, the questions is, "What are the attitudes that I have that are detrimental to me?"

    A skilled astrologer can make all of your attitudes very clear to you and explain precisely how they tend to function under any given situation. This is extremely valuable information.

    In all human relationships, we encounter some people who appreciate our attitudes because we support what they are trying to do. At other times, we have to work with people who have very different attitudes than ours. We are in conflict with the way they see things -- their attitudes.

    Since you cannot change the other person, you will need to know what atttiudes you need to change to get along with them. The clash of attitudes that you experience with them can be fully understood if you look at how their astrological signs relate to yours. Your astrology signs, as well as the other person's astrology signs, will need to be thoroughly analyzed so that you will know what to do about your relationship.

    These are extremely beneficial insights that a professional astrologer can give you. Your hidden attitudes, as well as those of other people, will not be hidden any longer. With the astrologer's help, you can become completely aware of what is going on inside of you as well as within those people who are involved with you.

    The Month of Capricorn, 2006-07

    The karmic planet Saturn guides our Sun’s transit through Capricorn, beginning on 7:22pmEST December 21st. Capricorn is our final leader on the Zodiac wheel, initiating winter as it begins upon the solstice. Collectively we are meant to learn patience, stability and wisdom over this period. Currently Saturn is in Retrograde, and for some these lessons may be harder to achieve, as Retrograde periods easily can allow blockages and challenges to achieving the positive aspects of that planet’s guidance.

    While enjoying all the pleasures and finer things in life, Capricorn natives achieve them all through practicality and discipline. Like their symbol, the Goat, they never stop working, ultimately allowing our Saturnine friends to manifest the material as their reward. This cardinal earthen energy appreciates what is established and stable in life.

    Organized to a tee, the ultimate goal of perfection is the outcome of whatever task a Capricorn sets their mind to. The natural urge to work rarely lets them have fun, and with the possession of a hidden and subtle sense of humor, their virtues are never far away. The conscious aim for integrity grants our Goats with a strong sense of reverence and duty to their agendas.

    Keen in the capabilities to utilize, conserve, persevere, and concentrate, Capricorns attain one goal after another, often starting from a very young age. The nature is fatherly, just, cautious, economical, ambitious, and dependable. At worst the attitude is self-absorbed, scrupulous, suspicious, mean, snobbish, morbid and uninspired. Through the cultivation of sociability, buoyancy and effective self-expression, the typical Capricorn easily learns to have more flexibility and fun in life.

    During this astrological month, Saturn, now in Retrograde, continues in its transit of Leo. We are asked to REflect and REassess in the house Leo governs in our astrological chart. Looking to any individual’s personal month numerical cycles, January marks the start of their repetition till March to reform what we have gained from last October to December. Over this period, Saturn is meant to aide in our self-reliance, settling karmic ties and mysteries, and ultimately allows them to come to the surface to be dealt with.

    As time continuously evolves, whatever sign Saturn is transiting, is the area of life in need of cleansing that which is not serving us in our lives. Choosing resistance during these natural times of renewal only makes them all the more challenging to get through. Saturn grants us our LESSONS learned: for when we heed them NO ONE LOSES so there is NO LOSS.

    Shortly after the Christmas holiday Mercury joins our Sun and Venus in Capricorn, while we continue forward in learning more of those fatherly wisdoms. Look for attitudes of the collective to be practical until Venus enters Aquarius, when values see a release; now able to be more inventive, original and humanitarian oriented. December 27th through January 3rd marks intensity in the house Capricorn rules in anyone’s birth chart.

    Mars catches up with our Sun upon January 16th, allowing the collective’s drives to be extra rooted in discipline. Mars remains in Capricorn until February 25th, so again look to the house Capricorn rules in any birth chart to see where you’ll see an extra boost over this period. Mars accelerates and energizes, often bringing new ideas and beginnings while in any sign it is currently transiting through.

    Mistakes are only lessons waiting to be learned. As we continue to learn through our experiences, once we KNOW: NOW we have WON.

    Psychic with 9 Guides Reads Others, Teaches, & Heals

    September of last year, I had a blonde woman about 30 years old, with long straight hair show up in my bedroom, sit on my bed and just look at me for a while. For lack of a better name for her, I named her Len, like the name of the alternative rock band that sings one of the cutest songs. She was visible, but you could kind of see through her, she was nice though, I could feel a lightness around her, but without her even ever having to speak, I knew what she was there for. I could feel vibrations from her and sensed what was happening. She was a temporary guide of mine. She stuck around...

    Guides can be temporary or permanent, as well as they can be there to tell you about a past life or about something they want you to do career-wise. She literally inhabited my body in order to tell me what she had to say. She was very insistent about what she was telling me and since I had already been told what she was trying to tell me, I was reluctant to listen, because I had heard it when I was 20 and thought it was silly, so I blew it off.

    She stuck around for days repeating herself and I realized I was hearing her from inside my own head, but it was a different voice, other than my own, and she repeated what she had to say until I acknowledged what she was saying. A few days of that, I acknowledged it. It was information about my own past life, my very first one, should I say. I was not into past life readings, before this, so it was kind of a surprise for me that she would repeat what I had already heard once before. I listened and she cleared out, satisfied that I had finally gotten the message.

    A few days later, she returned… with a new message for me. A single word, “Kundalini, kundalini, kundalini, kundalini, kundalini…” and on and on and on and on. I looked through every single book I had in my possession. A channeling book was the only one that I had, in years of a collection of books and studying, that even briefly mentioned this kundalini thing. With reluctance to make her mad and have a need to come back and repeat it to me even more than she already had, I acknowledged that I heard what she was telling me with the intention of looking it up. She was satisfied and went away again.

    Kundalini is serpent energy that is stored at the base of your spine, in your root chakra. A Kundalini rising occurs when the energy shoots up your spine out of your crown chakra. It can be painful with some really nasty side effects and it can take years to completely have your Kundalini rise up if it is not done properly. However, Kundalini rising leads to some very interesting psychic activity and awareness and something called Kundalini fire, which is a factor to healing. I learned to do those kundalini awakenings, to heal, either through distant, remote or hands-on method and to teach others to heal or teach. Only someone that has had their Kundalini rising can pass this on to others. With it, you can heal injuries and you can heal situations, provided that there are not blockages from unknown issues or problems that aren’t being dealt with, at the time. You can even heal those situations that stem from something in the past with Kundalini Reiki.

    Tachyon Reiki is my favorite, though. Tachyon is zero-point energy, or equivalent to holy ghost or holy spirit energy, that when applied to any chaotic or disharmonized situation, zooms into and targets that disharmony and restores balance and harmony to it. It can be used for healing any situation under the sun. It is completely safe to our bodies. You can tachyonize water and drink it for better health.

    I have had remarkable results in peoples’ situations with Tachyon. Even one from a criminal case where I was trying to work in the background. In this case, literally everything that could go wrong, did. It was unbelievable how ridiculously this case had been handled. It was stressing me and draining me because local authorities were just not hearing what I was telling them about it. I couldn’t get to the client to lay hands on them or directly apply the tachyon healing method to them, so I wrote this client letters and tachyonized the letters. I can literally go beyond prison bars, if I need to, to help someone, now. With months of Tachyon applied to the situation, the case is about to go back to court for an appeal. This case was one of the most challenging things I have ever dealt with in my life and my career. It’s going well, now, because I learned what Len was telling me. I can also help abused women and kids, being a survivor of it myself.

    Astrology India

    Indian Astrology has a history of more than five thousand years. Indians believe strongly that the stars govern their destiny and have immense faith in astrology. Astrology in India plays a very important role in deciding matrimonial alliances and determining the right time for starting new ventures. Predictions help you overcome misfortunes and provide a solution to overcome the ill influence of the celestial bodies. It is the guiding force at various stages in a person's life. Astrology simply shows the way in times of difficulty. It is merely a roadmap, and the individual has to make the effort himself to improve his life.

    Indian astrology is nothing but the planetary chart of an individual. It is accurate and helps overcome bad tidings and misfortunes during the person's life. There are three main branches of Indian astrology, namely Siddanta, Samhita, and Hora.The study of planets and stars comes under Siddanta. Natural calamities, weather predictions, and rainfall come under Samhita. Another branch, the Phalitha Jyothisha deals with the art and science of predictions. The Nadi system traces a person's life history and future as written on palm leaves. This system is highly accurate but it requires proper reading by a skilful astrologer.

    Components of Indian Astrology Indian Astrology comprises twenty-seven constellations in twelve lunar houses. The Moon plays an important role in an individual's life. The Sun, Moon and five main planets, namely Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Venus and Mercury along with Rahu and Ketu, the nodal points of the Moon are the pillars of Indian Astrology. The position of the Moon at the time of his birth or in a specific star helps to make the person's astrological chart. This decides the astrological star of the person and is important to determine the important major and minor sub-periods in his life.

    Vedic Astrology Vedic Astrology or Jyotish is as old as about 1500 BC, long before modern day, astronomers as Kepler and Newton made their appearance. The principles of Vedic astronomy propounded that the planets revolved around the sun, long before Western astronomers. This and several other principles were far ahead of their time and still hold today. Vedic astrology has its basis in astronomy and determines the time of religious ceremonies and functions. There are instances of Vedic Astrology cited in the ancient Hindu scriptures, the Rig Veda, and the mythological stories of the Ramayana and the Mahabharata. Jyotish literally means remover of darkness and knowledge of the divine. It takes a holistic view of life incorporating the present, the past, and the future. It is a search for the ultimate knowledge and seeks to understand divine truths.

    This form of astrology takes in to consideration the effect of electro-magnetic celestial influences on an individual's mental and psychological being. The underlying principle is that an individual's destiny depends on his actions and it is his job to do his karma, irrespective of the outcome of his actions. Jyotish or Vedic astrology is therefore a study of the symbiotic relationships between living and celestial bodies in the universe.

    Birthstones Birthstones form an integral part of Indian astrology. There are specific birthstones for people born in a specific month of the year. Some of the birthstones are amethyst, garnet, cat's eye, aquamarine, lapis, moonstone, pearl, red coral gomedh, sapphire and ruby. Wearing the right birthstone helps improve your life, finances, relationships and career. It brings mental peace and stability in thought and actions. Birthstones help to increase the positive effect of certain planets and to minimize the negative influences of other planets as per your birth chart. The proper birthstones emanate positive energy and form a protective aura around the wearer. However, you must consult an astrologer and wear the appropriate birthstone only as a wrong birthstone can have a negative impact on your life.

    Indian astrology is therefore like a guide map to life. The planetary positions indicate our destiny, but ultimately we have to perform the requisite actions to get the desired results. Moreover, faith is important to ensure that the astrological predictions work for you.

    Origins and Perceptions of Tarot Cards

    In a world that is modern and full of scientific advances and experiments, there are still some long standing traditions that claim to incorporate mystic forces. People check their horoscopes on a daily basis live by superstitions and believe that there are some things that cannot be explained. A major phenomenon that is now back in fashion is the use of tarot cards to predict a person’s future and discover their past and present issues. 15th century Italy is generally believed to have been the time and place that the use of tarot cards began. The cards consisted of the Minor and Major Arcana. The Minor Arcana includes each of the four suits. The Major Arcana consists of 22 cards that do not belong to any of the suits. The trend spread across Europe and became extremely popular with nobility and commoners alike. Tarot was used to predict events and eventually became of particular use to people who were interested in the occult.

    The association of tarot cards and the occult led to the belief that tarot cards were involved in the dark arts and certain religions began to ban the use of tarot cards amongst their followers. Tarot cards then became a secretive form of expression with people using the divination of the cards privately. More recently, tarot cards have experienced a renewal in popularity, as people are more likely to view astrology in a light-hearted way whereas in past times they were overly superstitious. Tarot card readings have once again become hugely popular with a lot of people venturing to have their cards read on a regular basis whether for fun or for serious guidance in their lives.

    There is a huge market in this type of divination at present. Even on sites like Ebay, tarot card readings are available for sale. Occult shops often depend on the sale of tarot items for their main source of income and even regular bookshops now sell tarot cards and books on tarot. There is a certain fascination with divination in general and tarot cards can be attractive and appeal to a wide range of people. Tarot cards can come in all sorts of designs and colors and the collection of tarot cards is now as popular as the reading of them. Books giving instructions on the use of tarot cards and the different spreads available are now commonplace. There are even tarot parties where a group of friends hire a tarot card reader as the entertainment for the party. One of the party members may have some knowledge in the use of tarot cards and use their skills to give readings to their friends.

    Tarot cards are now so commonplace that they are no longer completely associated with the dark arts and are generally viewed as a harmless form of divination. Gone are the misconceptions that tarot card readings are performed by unsavory mysterious characters. A decent tarot card reader does not give deep, dark predictions of unwelcome events. They should instead make the customer comfortable and give a general guidance without actually instructing the customer on what to do with their lives. As some people have a dependence on this area, the tarot card reader should be able to recognize when a person is not stable enough to receive a reading and should also have the integrity to then refuse the person a reading. It is an area where the are many con-artists and scams but like anything in the world, the majority of people should not be judged by other people’s actions.

    Love Astrology and Venus

    Love Astrology is becoming very popular as more and more people realize the potential of this ancient, timeless wisdom to shed light on life’s great mysteries. Relationships sure are that, a mystery. Free daily horoscopes in the paper do little to shed meaningful light on relationships however; in fact they are misleading and cause many to dismiss love astrology as ineffective or just plain superstitious. Yet for those who know better, horoscope compatibility is an effective way to understand the complexity of relationships.

    Relationship Astrology Insights

    Much insight into relationships can be learned even from just a cursory glance through the lens of astrology. For instance, astrologically, the house of relationships is the furthest thing from you in the Astrology chart. You, the subject, are read from the first house, the rising sign, also known as the ascendant. Your partner is read from the 7th house or the descendant. This is the furthest point from you in the chart. Similarly, relationships are perhaps the hardest thing we do in life. They are an attempt to integrate that which feels the most alien to us.

    Universal wisdom knows that the only way we would face such difficulty or attempt such a Herculean task is if our desires were also the strongest; this is also the case. The seventh house, a house of desires. We want something from the partner, to satisfy our desires with them. The sexual bond that attaches us in relationships is the necessary glue that keeps us going back again and again to face this most un integrated part of ourselves. All of our guts are on the floor and the stakes are high in relationships, otherwise we simply would not do it.

    In many ways, the process is quite silly. We care so much about what a certain person thinks just because we think they are good-looking or because of some physical "chemistry switch" that goes off. The person could be dumb as a bag of hammers, but if they are good-looking, or we are attracted to them, suddenly we want them to like us or find us attractive also. Another person could be the most intelligent, insightful person in the world-but if there is no spark, who cares what they think, right?

    Venus, Bringer of Love

    The planet of attraction, beauty and desires is Venus. Through the miracle of Venus our worldly, trivial association with fleeting forms of beauty and desire becomes transformed into selfless love, devotion to love itself. This love is one more concerned with giving, not taking. This deeper love is our true nature and the reason we suffer when our love fails. Falling short of this ideal is how we fail ourselves.

    If we are to return love to its dignified place we need to honor the desires of another equal to our own and thus, compromise with them, also the realm of Venus. In order to get our needs met we also have to allow another to get their needs met also. We are willing to give up what we want now if we want to get more of what we want later. Venus in Astrology chart shows how a person's relationships unfold. Only Venus can transform our desire to experience sensual pleasure and gratification into the desire to please and help another person.

    Venus is the planet that teaches us how to live on Earth properly, because she's the one who teaches us how to play fairly. The capacity to yield and remain loving in spite of our disappointment and frustrated desires is the miracle of relationships. When we are able to do this we feel whole. This is why few things are more rewarding in life than growing in relationships and dealing with those difficulties gracefully. We feel like we are making profound spiritual progress when we are able to succeed in relationships.

    Love is in the Stars - Relationship Astrology part 2

    Man and Woman – Sun and Moon

    In Brihat Parashara Hora Sastra, the Sun and Moon are described. Masculine energy is related to the Sun. Feminine energy is related to the Moon

    Description of Surya. (The Sun) Surya's eyes are honey-colored. He has a square body. He is of clean habits, bilious, intelligent and has limited hair (on his head).

    Description of Chandra (The Moon) Chandra is windy and phlegmatic. She is learned and has a round body. She has auspicious looks and sweet speech, is fickle-minded and very lustful.

    Attributes of the Sun and Moon (Man and Woman) are compared:

    * Body: The man has a square body; the woman has a round body. * Process: The man is filled with intelligence; the woman is filled with knowing. * Looks: Sun, The man has honey colored eyes; the woman has auspicious looks. * Constitution: The man is bilious (fiery); the woman is watery and windy. * Psychology: The man is consistent; the woman is fickle minded

    Let’s explore these characteristics:

    The Moon is the most changeable of all the planets. It is the fastest moving; it is different everyday. The round body of the Moon shows the woman's changeability and creativity. She is susceptible to rolling here and there, depending on which way the wind is blowing or other environmental conditions. Yet this changeability also makes her creative and adaptable, which helps the man not stay so fixed so as to become rigid. His square body shows the consistency of his actions. A square is a structure of support upon which other objects can be placed. This allows for vertical growth.

    The intelligence of the man is of the mind. The knowing of the woman is of the heart. Intelligence comes from a rational perspective then moves forward. Knowing comes from an emotional place and generally reflects backward. This is why women tend to rely on memories. Men tend to want to move forward, looking for solutions, which are of the future. There needs to be balance and a sharing of both attributes, a thoughtful consideration of the past combined with an intelligent course of action for the future.

    The woman's auspicious looks, attracts the man's honey colored eyes. Women want the man's attention and like attracting it. Men like to look at women. A relationship works best when the woman feels the man's attraction to her and the man wants to give to her. The woman's sweet speech and knowing attracts and supports the man's intelligence.

    The man has a fiery constitution, which is related to competition, passion and digestion. The nature of fire is independent. It has the capacity to illuminate, purify and provide warmth. The nature of water is connective. It has capacity to sensitize, nourish and heal. Yet fire can also lead to anger and excessive desire. Water can also lead to excessive emotion, drowning in a flood of dependency.

    She is fickle minded. The square body of the man reassures her. A square is solid and not so easily moved, thus when she is rolling around she would like to knock into a solid surface.



    Relationship Astrology Attributes

    These are essential truths, stripped of artifice and modern political correctness. Of course all people have both qualities of the Sun and Moon within them. But in relationships, the woman wants to surrender her Moon to the man's Sun and he wants to give his Sun to her Moon. She surrenders her heart to him and he surrenders his power to her - or NOT.

    Each gender ultimately seeks to assimilate attributes of both male and female; but until our essential gender strength is validated in the partnership, we will not be able to relax and evolve toward our opposite. We all want to merge with that opposite energy, to assimilate the qualities inspired by our opposite and to inspire assimilation in them. We all want to be free and unburdened of the responsibilities of the limiting qualities of our gender, but this unburdening must come from a position of strength, not confusion.

    Love is in the Stars - Relationship Astrology part 1

    Relationship Astrology part 1 - Elemental Astrology. This is #1 in a series of relationship astrology articles.

    Relationship astrology is nothing new, yet it is experiencing a renaissance these days as more and more people rediscover the ancient, holistic wisdom that astrology offers. Thousands of years ago, every culture used astrology. The human beings who lived on Earth at the time developed subtle and meaningful spiritual technologies; astrology was among them. Just as humans today develop technologies that bring about more convenience and entertainment, ancient cultures everywhere developed subtle and magical systems awakening. Astrology, as the science of universal energy and unfolding time, was chief among them.

    Even the most cursory look at a basic Astrology book will show the importance of masculine and feminine energy in life. There are two female and two male elements in the astrology chart. Each element is repeated three times through different modalities. (Cardinal, Fixed, Mutable)

    The four elements in the Astrology chart from the densest to finest are: Earth and Water (female) -- Fire and Air (male) -- LET'S LOOK DEEPER.

    Feminine Energy in the Astrology Chart

    Earth shows our physical body as well as all things that are practical, useful, tangible and material. Our life unfolds through our physical body and its needs are the most urgent when they arise. The element of Earth will remain at rest unless acted upon by another force or object. Earth provides the tangible structure for which our life unfolds, but it may also be the stagnant quality that prevents our life from moving forward.

    Earth rules the sense of smell.

    Water shows the flow of our senses into our environment and the deep emotional connections formed. Water is related to our feelings. Water and Earth together creates growth, in the form of plants. Plants provide food and sustenance for all creatures as well as oxygen for us to breathe. Water gives a connection to love and feelings, which gives rise to a caring heart and a compassionate life. Water rests upon Earth and nourishes it, just as the senses feed, and love nourishes, our body. Yet water may make us cling to fantasies, memories or emotions. Water rules the sense of taste.

    Female Energy wants to stabilize, sensitize and nourish us, just like Earth and water. Thus women are generally the most interested in feelings, emotions, stability, and being grounded in their body and senses. When feeling a sense of lack in these areas, a woman's actions and thought's will tend to be inconsistent and hard to understand.

    These feminine qualities of Earth and water are fundamental to any actions that come later. For both men and women, if we are disconnected from our deeper feeling nature , our actions (as shown by the male signs) will lack sensitivity and meaning.

    * Generally speaking, when women feel good about themselves, they will do good things.

    Masculine Energy in the Astrology Chart

    Fire shows our passions, drives, motivations and digestion of all sorts. As water feeds the body, fire digests what it is fed. Earth and water creates plants; fire is hidden in the plants. Not only is food digested, all information and sensory stimulation must be assimilated and digested. This process of digestion creates heat, warmth and light that illuminates our path; or this fire may burn us or others or create smoke that obscures our path. Fire rules the sense of sight.

    Air shows our thoughts, philosophies and motion of all sorts. Fire disperses into the air, into the atmosphere. The food we eat, after its digested leads to movement of all sorts, both in the body and the mind. Air is related to the breath, the vitality. The motion of air can have a worthy goal and bring great understanding or it can be scattered and devoid of meaning by disturbing our peace of mind and emotions (Think of air creating waves on water). Air rules the sense of touch.

    Male energy wants to assert, comprehend and protect, just like fire and Air signs. Men are generally the most comfortable in situations where they can think independently and do something for themselves or others. When they are unable to think or act in a situation, their feelings will be inconsistent, unpredictable and hard to understand.

    These masculine qualities of life are necessary if we are to grow in truthful identity, strength and understanding. Lacking a clear purpose and consistent powerful actions, our life will stagnate, lack direction and we will not grow toward a higher purpose.

    ** In general, when men do good things, they feel good about themselves.

    In the Vedic sciences there are five elements; the fifth element is space. Space (ether) is related to pure consciousness, the witnessing self, which is not identified with the previous four elements. Space is the container of the other elements; everything exists in space. This is why we are able to perceive our thoughts and actions, watch them move and witness them. If there were no space between our thoughts or no space operating behind them, from what vantage point would we be able to observe them?

    Space refers to our freedom and flexibility. We are not just confined to qualities of life on Earth. We have the free will to decide any course of action and observe our mind/body events.

    Can Palmistry Be Used To Foretell the Future

    Years ago, I saw a cartoon of a gypsy traveling on a train. While the people around her read books, she was busy reading her hand. Amusing as that cartoon was, I must confess that from time to time I like to study my own hand. I’m continually amazed by the way that the lines are constantly changing, reflecting things that have happened or are currently happening in my life.

    About ten years ago, when I was traveling overseas, my plane ticket was stolen in an Eastern Block country. That night I had a tormented night of sleep. The next morning I looked at my hand and was surprised to see that during the night there had been a significant change to a travel line. This change reflected exactly what would now transpire due to the ticket being stolen. In this case, the event (the theft of the ticket) preceded the change on my hand. However, marks on the hand also warn of events that will occur in the future.

    The most significant lines on the palm are the heart, head, life, fate and Apollo lines. Important changes in a life can be gleaned from the presence or absence of any of these lines; from their trajectory; breaks and markings thereon and their depth, width and color.

    A palmist will find that the two questions everyone seems to ask are ‘how long will I live?’ and ‘will I win the lottery?’. Can the answers to these questions be seen on the lines of the hand?

    One would expect that the life line would be the best indicator of the length of life. I once heard an interesting story. A man had examined his young son’s hand and noticed that he had a very short life line. This worried the father greatly and his fears were confirmed when his son drowned at the age of seven. As tragic as this event was, the man was somehow comforted by the belief that his son had been destined to live a short life.

    On the other hand, another man with a very long life line was admitted to hospital with a serious illness. His wife studied his hand both on his entry to hospital and during his stay, and noticed that the life line actually shrank during this period of time. The man died soon after at a quite young age.

    So, even a long life line is not a guarantee of longevity. If we are blessed with ‘good’ lines on our hands then poor lifestyle can undermine them, just as poor lifestyle can undermine good genetics. It does help though, to have a strong life line. This would be a line that is robust in appearance with no breaks and a consistent strength throughout its entirety.

    One person’s life line was extremely robust in appearance until the age of sixty. After that time the line became stringy and pale. It transpired that the owner of the hand had indeed enjoyed good health until the age of sixty. However, after that age he found his health failing and now, at the age of sixty five, he felt that he had no energy and that everything he did exhausted him.

    When islands appear on the life line they indicate a weakening of the life force. At the point where the island appears, the life force could be diminished in some way. For example, a friend of mine has a life line that has so many islands on it, the life line looks like a chain. Coincidentally or not, during her life she has suffered from many illnesses, some extremely serious.

    Is it possible to forsee a lottery win on the life line?

    A friend of mine examined the hand of a man who had won the lottery. At the exact point of time of the lottery win an island appeared on his life line. She was surprised by this sign and she told the man that rather than seeing good signs on his hand indicating a joyful win, all she could see was a bad marking. He sighed and agreed with her. Apparently from the moment he’d won the money he’d had nothing but misery. Everyone knew of his win and he was constantly being bombarded with demands from family and friends asking for money.

    Chinese Astrology Forecast for United States in 2007

    In 2007, the United States would encounter a series of major troubles that involve the conflict of interest among different political parties. The U.S. government would be in an inferior position in the beginning.
    The Trigram that represents the luck of the U.S. in 2007 is Kun, this time with the third stroke changed from last year. Those familiar with I-Ching, or the Book of Changes, can tell the third stroke of a trigram represents danger. It implies internal struggle and conflicts which would surely happen to the U.S. On top of that, its trigram also shows the least compatible / desirable combination: a Kun trigram with hidden Shi and Bo trigrams. Shi represents warfare and confrontations. Bo means an erosion of territory or authority, leaving only the bare essentials.
    As a democratic nation with an extensive territory, there are demonstrations in the various scales in the U.S. every day. It is a sign of human rights. Yet, a trigram representing its luck of the year seldom refers to things that happen habitually. In other words, the ‘internal conflicts’ as foretold by the trigram refers to something more substantial that civilized demonstration.
    Here are the two key trends in the U.S. in 2007: 1. The conflicts between different groups of its people and the uneven distribution of resources have accumulated grievances.
    Those problems finally escalate to the point where its people have to take a more violent approach.
    2. The hidden enemies of the U.S. would turn the country upside down with shady manipulations.
    Yet, no matter what happens, the Americans would live on as usual.
    What is Chinese Astrology?
    Chinese Astrology is one of the most ancient philosophies still in existence today. The Chinese Astrology uses the Chinese calendar, which was invented in the 27-22 century B.C. by Emperor Yellow or known as Yellow Lord (Huangdi).
    In ancient China and up till today, Astrology has been used to predict what happens to countries, the outcome of wars; weather of the year; economic trends, fortune of people and much more.
    One complete cycle of the zodiac takes 60 years, which composes the arrangement of a heavenly stem and an earthly branch. The year 2000 marks the 17th year in the 78th cycle.
    The animals signs are commonly known because of the legend of the Jade emperor summon the 12 animals (Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog and Pig ) for a race. However, the configurations of the heavenly stems and earthly branches are much more important for astrology.

    Here are some free Feng Shui tips for you:
    Feng Shui Tip 1: The Effect of Electrical Appliances on Feng Shui
    In Feng Shui, the auspicious areas of a house should be kept as spacious as possible so that the positive energy can be flow smoothly. There should not any obstruction to the flow of Chi (or Qi) in auspicious sectors. Thus, big or heavy furniture items should not be placed there. This is also an important concept in the practice of Vastu Shastra.
    In Feng Shui, sound and electrical energy have the effect of activating Feng Shui stars (good or bad). Therefore, the placement of electrical appliances such as television, radio, fan or computer can affect the Feng Shui of a house. These electrical appliances
    should be placed at the auspicious sectors. Furniture which can be placed at the inauspicious sectors includes sofa, cupboard, etc.
    Generally speaking, the left side of a living room is the Green Dragon while the right side is the White Tiger. The Green Dragon is considered auspicious while the White Tiger is considered inauspicious. Electrical appliances should generally be placed at the left side of the living room while the big furniture like cupboard or sofa should be placed at the right side of the room.
    Feng Shui Tip 2: Road That Curves Away From a House
    In Feng Shui, roads are the modern version of water. Thus, the curvature of a road affects the Feng Shui of a house. A road that curves away from a house facing the entrance creates a strong and negative flow of energy called Shar Chi (Sha Qi) towards the house. Since water represents wealth in Feng Shui, the presence of such as a road will have a negative wealth effect on the inhabitants of the house.
    To solve this problem, place a windscreen in front of the entrance to prevent the negative Shar Chi (Sha Qi) from "entering" the entrance directly.
    Feng Shui Tip 3: A Long Straight Road That Creates Shar Chi (Sha Qi)
    In Feng Shui, a long straight road facing a house can create Shar Chi (Sha Qi) to the house. The longer the road is, the stronger the Shar Chi (Sha Qi) that is created. Inhabitants of a house facing this Shar Chi (Sha Qi) will encounter problems like accidents or other "blood-shedding" incidents such as having to undergo a surgery or operation.
    The easiest way to solve this problem is to place a windscreen in front of the door or entrance. This will prevent the Shar Chi (Sha Qi) from entering the house directly.
    Feng Shui Tip 3 : A Door That Faces Another Door
    In Feng Shui, a door facing another door can create Shar Chi (Sha Qi) between the two doors. There are four possible scenarios:
    (a) Main door of a house facing main door of another house
    In this scenario, the inhabitants of both houses are likely to be quick-tempered and quarrel frequently. To solve this problem, place a windscreen in front of the door.
    (b) A room door facing a toilet door
    This scenario takes place within a house. Besides problems of quick tempers and frequent quarrels, the inhabitants staying in the room might develop digestive and urinary diseases. To solve this problem, place a windscreen in front of the toilet door if the room is big enough. If there is not enough room for a windscreen, simply close the toilet door.
    (c) A room door facing a kitchen entrance
    This scenario is not as problematic as the first two scenarios. Nonetheless, inhabitants of the room will be prone to accidents and minor injuries and if the problem persists over time, inhabitants might encounter major accidents. To solve this problem, place a windscreen or hang a bead curtain in front of the kitchen entrance.
    (d) A room door facing another room door
    This scenario is the least harmful of the four. Tempers might erupt occasionally and if inhabitants are working in an office environment, office politics will occur frequently. To solve this problem, place a bead curtain in front of the room door.
    Feng Shui Tip 4: Locating An Auspicious Main Door
    The main door plays an important role in the Feng Shui of a house. Thus, it is important that the main door is located in an auspicious sector of a house. Generally speaking, the main door should be located in a position which enables positive Chi (Qi) to flow into the house.
    If there is a pond or empty space in front of a house, the main door should be located at the centre of the house facing the pond or empty space.
    If a road passes by the front of a house and slopes from left to right (or the left side of the road is longer than the right side as seen from the front of a house), the main door should be located at the right side of the house facing the road.
    If a road passes by the front of a house and slopes from right to left (or the right side of the road is longer than the right side as seen from the front of a house), the main door should be located at the left side of the house facing the road.

    Love Horoscope And Sex Horoscope Help You To Seduce The Man And Woman You Want!

    Love Horoscope and Sex Horoscope Help You to Seduce the Man and Woman You Want!
    Reveals the secrets to seducing the person of your desire based simply on his/her zodiac sign
    To Seduce a Virgo Man
    The type of woman who attracts the Virgo man in search of company always appears well groomed and conservatively dressed -- and, above all, has an air of propriety. They are very particular, and desire nothing short of perfection in their potential mates, which can leave them out in the cold more often than not. Good manners and good taste are essential for the consort of a Virgo man, as is a sense of personal responsibility.
    He can be slowly seduced by a woman who can makes herself useful to him in little ways that can make him feel as though he cannot get along without her assistance. A Virgo man's paradox is that while he is seeking the perfect person (and rejecting many who were judged not perfect enough), he may settle his attentions on a woman who present a "unique fixer-upper opportunity."
    To Seduce a Libra Woman
    The type of man who attracts a Libra woman is charming, polite, and well dressed -- it also helps if he's good looking, romantic, and a bit old-fashioned as well. They tend to respond to mental and verbal flirtations more so than the crude physical kinds. Libra women can easily be charmed by a smooth talking suitor, and are generally attracted to creative types.
    Serenity is what they are after, yet it becomes boring to them in the end, so they also like to shake things up a little now and then -- everything is kept in a neat and tidy balance in their lives. They are aroused by aesthetics and the perception of beauty, whether intrinsically or extrinsically. They may also find an argument arousing, as long as it remains verbal and does not get physically threatening.

Like any map, astrology can give you your boundaries and the obstacles you will encounter-dieting, as well as in life. It will also show you how to use your cosmic energy by tapping into your strengths, and even your weaknesses, to overcome a certain obstacle-like being overweight.
    Since the earth is constantly moving, nothing (including you) stays the same. To diet successfully, you must find out what your ‘givens’ are –where the sun was in your chart when you were born, what horoscope zodiac sign was on the horizon (your rising sign), and the placement of the planets at the moment of your birth. The placement of your sun tells how you perceive the world and what motivates you. Your rising sign tells how the world perceives you. The placement of your moon reveals how you interpret this information.
    Most diet weight loss program limit your intake of all the things you love to eat, sometimes they do away with them, altogether. Knowing that you must give up these foods, and accepting it, are two very different things. If you cannot live without coffee with cream and sugar, black coffee may not get you through even the first day of your diet weight loss program. Many of us love and depend on certain foods, and the prospect of giving them up forever-or at least for the next ten to twenty pounds-may send us into fits of depression, or worse, into giving up the diet weight loss program completely.
    By recognizing the eating and personality traits for each horoscope zodiac sign, you can eliminate this formidable barrier to successful dieting forever. When you learn what your givens are, you can begin to work with them and not against them.
    For instance, the fire signs (Aries, Leo and Sagittarius) have less trouble dieting than any other horoscope zodiac signs, since their bodies burn up calories most efficiently. Their diets are based on carbohydrate counting because their weakness stems from quantity: they will try to consume much more than they actually need, and they like foods with poor nutritional value. Their diets are based on the motto, ‘Eat like a queen in the morning, like a prince in the afternoon and like a beggar in the evening.’
    You might start your diet whenever the spirit-or the necessity-moves you. But remember that you will not see the dramatic results you crave unless you diet during the correct astrological cycles for your horoscope zodiac sign.
    The secret is timing. For centuries astrologers and farmers have known that the sun affects the plumpness of fruits and vegetables. Now astrologers noted it also affects the weight of people.
    The earth signs, Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn, have a harder time losing weight because they let themselves gain weight for a long time before going on a diet weight loss program.
    The air signs, Gemini, Libra and Aquarius, have little trouble losing weight because they have so much nervous energy. They tend to go on way-out fad diets, however, and that’s a weakness. They need to keep a diary of everything they eat in order to benefit from a diet weight loss program.
    The water signs, Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces, gain and lose weight at a phenomenal rate because most of their problem is not fat, but water weight.
    Before you begin complete these four preliminary steps:
    Step one: Self Evaluation.
    If you are reading this article, you want to lose weight. You must set up a clear goal that how much weight you want to lose.
    Step Two: Banish Guilt.
    Realize there are times when you will find it hard to lose weight. If you don’t lose weight at these times, don’t be hard on yourself. Think of those times when you have been bursting with willpower; then think of the other times when you would have killed for a cracker. We have all had times when we can seem to eat anything and still lose weight. Then there are times when you stick religiously to diet and gain weight despite your effort. Knowing your astrological cycles will help prepare you for those times.
    Step Three: Timing is everything
    Use your horoscope zodiac sign and learn to do the right thing, at the right place, at the right time.
    Step Four: Know Yourself.
    Everyone has a different reason for being overweight. Study your likes and dislikes. Get to know yourself. It can help you explore your astrological map, but only you can find the most direct route to your goal.

    Are You Playing The Fool to Your Advantage

    What does the appearance of The Fool mean for you when it appears in a Tarot spread? Do you get excited or worried? In this short article we explain what The Fool means when he appears in the Tarot.

    The Fool is perhaps one of the most important tarot cards in the deck. He is the first card of the Major Arcana, the first of 22 cards. He is also the only one of the Major Arcana to remain in our modern card deck, appearing as the Joker. His journey is at a deeper level the journey we are all on - the journey through life and life's troubles, as no matter how old we are or what experiences we have been through we will still contine to find ourselves in areas where we are unsure, and vulnerable.

    The Fool has appeared in many guises over the centuries in the different decks that have appeared. In the Visconti Sforza deck he is seen looking a bit like a tramp without shoes in his stocking soles, and threadbare at that! He carries a large stick or staff over his shoulder as though ready to commence a long journey.

    In the Wirth deck he looks a bit like the court jester of old, and most like the forerunner of today's joker in the traditional card deck. He has however a cat with it's teeth sunk into his left leg, and a crocodile in the distance. The picture on this card seems to indicate the urge of The Fool to get on with his journey in spite of all obstacles both past and future. The Arthurian Tarot portrays The Fool as Parsifal who sought the mythic Holy Grail, and the Mythic deck depicts him as the Greek god Dionysus, wearing animal skins of many colours, and dancing gaily at the edge of a cliff.

    No matter which deck we use the appearance of The Fool is a sign that we should follow our own path no matter what. We need to have the courage to jump off the cliff into a new venture if that's what is called for. We need to have faith in our convictions no matter how hard this might be.

    Astrological Talismans, Amulets, & Good Luck Charms

    The sound by which all things are created isn’t just any sound, it is the Word of God, this word pervades through everything that exists. The power of the spoken word in the form of prayers, hymns and chants, is a belief that is common to all major religions and these sounds resonate in churches, mosques and temples throughout the world. In Hinduism, Mantras are a combination of sacred words, composed mainly in Sanskrit. According to the ancient Hindu scriptures, the ‘Vedas’ and ‘Upanishads’, the chanting of Mantras can achieve enlightenment and oneness with God.

    The visual equivalent of a Mantra is a Yantra, it is in fact the graphical representation of a Mantra. The literal meaning of Yantra is ‘Device’, but it is unlike any manmade device, as its working is in complete harmony with nature. It is believed that a Yantra possesses infinite power, that its results are miraculous and that it can not only remove problems, but also realize wishes.

    Yantras are made up from Vedic symbols, comprising of straight lines, squares, rectangles, triangles and circles. These symbols are so precise in design, that even the angles employed are determined to the last degree. Some Yantras may also comprise of numbers and letters of the ‘Dev Nagari’ script. These symbols represent the five basic elements: Earth, Wind, Fire, Air, Water and Ether. Each element is associated with certain properties. For example Earth denotes among other things stability, patience, material happiness and success. While Wind represents dishonour, sorrow and ignorance. These symbols are arranged so as to enhance one property and enervate the other.

    The materials out of which Yantras can be created are very varied. These include ‘Asht Dhatu’ or an eight metal alloy, gold, silver, copper, crystals or even plant leaves. Some materials are more suited to the properties of certain Yantras. However, any Power Yantra has an intrinsic energy which is always radiated, irrespective of size or material and these factors are not critical to its power.

    The energising of a Yantra is the most important aspect of its creation. Without performing the complex, ancient energising ceremonies, set out in the Vedas, a Yantra remains dormant. Once it has been energized an ordinary Yantra is transformed into a Power Yantra and in this state it is considered to be the dwelling of the Gods and Deities it represents. In fact Yantra also means’ Abode’. Genuine Power Yantras, such as those that can be found at powerfortunes.com, are fountains of positive energy, that shower on those who worship them.

    The energising ceremonies, or ‘Havans’ are preformed only on specific dates, during certain months of the Hindu calendar. Once this date has been selected, the exact time at which the Havan is to be preformed is calculated. At that precise time, in the presence of a ‘Sacred Fire’, the appropriate Mantras are recited and offerings made. This is done so as to invoke the Gods and Deities to invest their power and presence on the Yantra, igniting it with positive energy. According to the learned Guru (teacher) Maharishi Kishore Yogi Raj of Dehra Dun, India, who creates and energises Yantras for powerfortunes.com (check http://www.powerfortunes.com/aboutyantras.html), “It is essential that pure, unselfish thoughts are maintained during the energizing of theYantras.

    Without this, the Yantras will not bear the desired results.” There are numerous types of Yantras, each having its own unique design and purpose. Some may have multiple effects, such as the Sri Yantra. This Yantra is known to not only provide wealth and prosperity, but to also enhance mental concentration and harmony. Other Yantras may have a more specific purpose such as neutralizing the effects negative thoughts, evil wishes or adverse astrological conditions. Each Yantra has a corresponding Mantra. Repetition of this Mantra in the presence of a Power Yantra can have quite remarkable effects, especially in relation to the realization of ambitions and desires.

    According to Dr. R.K. Shrimali, author of ‘Shri Yantra Rahesya’ or ‘ The Mysteries of the Shri Yantra’, Yantras also serve a functional purpose during prayers. That is, of providing a fixed point on which spiritual energy can be focused. It has been observed that when sound waves of certain frequencies are directed at a Yantra, the reflected waves mirror the patterns inscribed on the Yantra surface. This principle of wave polarization is believed to also extend to other energy forms, such as light, heat and magnetic fields.

    Flying Stars Fengshui for 2006 Predictions & Remedies for Main Door Facing South

    Flying Stars or Fei Xing is a powerful form of Feng Shui derived from the famous Xuan Kong Fengshui. It is an Analysis of the Five Elements and Star Combinations (representing certain energy patterns) that occupy every building. Each new year these annual stars change, Qi (energy) shifts happen, bringing good and bad energy with them - thereby producing different effects.

    In February 2004 all the Feng Shui Energy Patterns underwent huge transformations to the NewAge of Land Luck called Period 8 Energy Cycles. It means that a large scale evolution of the human race with completely new energy dynamics has started. The significance is that the new, vibrant energies of Period 8 impacts on the buildings differently than before and energies that were previously activated now need to be remedied, in order to reduce any bad effects from the past influences.

    The Flying Stars Chart or the 9-Grid Meteor Plan for the Bing-Xu, Year of the Yang Red Fire Dog has been plotted and the effects of their energy patterns are analyzed. The analysis also contains suggested remedies/cures for reducing the impact of negative energy and recommended enhancers for increasing and improving upon the beneficial energy.

    For the remedies/enhancers to be effective, they should be cleansed, energised, blessed and programmed not only for the particular individual/family but also for the specific purpose/problem. They should also be placed in the indicated location.

    The direction in which your main door lies is very important to any form of Geomancy, including Fengshui & Vaastu. The primary reason for this is that the air currents and energy flow in and flow out through the mouth of the main door. Thus you receive positive energy for the year, if the main door faces a direction of auspicious stars or meteors (powerful energy bodies) and receive negative energy for the year, if the main door faces a direction of evil stars or meteors. In case negative impacts are forecast, you can simply offset the negative energy by installing the recommended remedies there. Any or all of these remedies can be reused for the coming years, the only thing is that they should be repositioned according to the new year.

    Sun Sign Astrology An Intriguing Scorpion

    Astrology sun sign details happen to be the main source of astrological assessment. Every sun sign possesses certain distinct traits with the help of which people of one sun sign could be easily distinguished from others. Scorpio is one such peculiar astrological sun sign.

    People borne on a date that lies on or in between October 22 to November 22 are called Scorpions as their sun sign happens to be Scorpio.

    Purple and gold are colors assigned to scorpions. Their stone is Topaz and Iron is their metal. Scorpions hail from the water element.

    Scorpions are known for having great sexual cravings. Their high sexual drive is difficult to be satisfied. That's why they need a partner who is equally sexually active. For scorpions sexual compatibilities are of utmost importance. Women say, scorpion males are rocking in bed. They don't have emotional hangovers attached with themselves. At times scorpions are very brutal. If a scorpion could sublime his/her distorted sexual urges, the energy saved could be used to make the scorpion a great human being.

    On the other hand scorpions have n-number of qualities. They happen to be very intelligent and try their level best to achieve their target. They are very intense people who can, to any extent, make things work for themselves. They are very passionate about their career. And they can't afford to loose in life.

    All in all, scorpions possess great resilience capability. Nothing could change their perception. They could be easily out of the worst of situations. Scorpions know the art of figuring out things that can't be expressed in words. They could easily read psychology of a person.

    God the Astrologer

    A frequent device in scripture is to put the most important item first in a phrase or a list. To observe the oceans move by the power of the moon, then declare that people are unaffected, is folly. To know that global conditions vary by the phase of the moon and claim it has no effect on people, is folly. So wherefrom came the idea that astrology is sorcery? It is a tribute to the dawn of the Aquarian Age, we don't execute astrologers for sorcery. So where did this link come from in the carefully cultivated Christian mind?

    A story might explain it: In a large village, long ago and far away, there was a council of elders which pretended to wisdom. They were very jealous of a man who was truly wise and lived alone on the outskirts of town.

    Being wise men of liesure they loved to spy upon the wizard. The council met weekly and discussed their wizard observations. In time the council decided the wizard was getting too much attention and probably offending God in the process.

    The wizard was executed and the people lived happily ever after. To this very day, all the descendents of all the people of that village, know that wise men are wizards and ought to be put to death, as they did in Russia and China last century. Today, when an all knowing Christian tells me astrology and numerology are sorcery, I know who his/her parents were.

    Cancer (horoscope)

    If you’re a Cancer you most likely already know that you are defensive and probably materialistic. You've noticed that you are capable of being trusted to defend family values or other treasures that might slip away from some other members of your family or friends.
    Your intuition is a very potent secret strength. Sometimes you "just have a feeling." And this internal inkling protects you and those you love through all sorts of weather, throughout your life. Many of you Cancers have fallen for solid luck stories that warped out to be tall tales, while others have felt betrayed by someone you once trusted. Don't let yourself become bitter or withdrawn, or you'll sink deeper into confusion. Cancers are not destined to be by yourself - you need the safety of steady relationships, and the world wants you! Look inside for the foundation of bewilderment that allows you to be exposed to a rabble-rouser, fast talker or bad venture. Were you really taken advantage of, or did you allow your insecurities to quiet your superior judgment. Talk over your feelings with people you have a high regard for, transfer your thoughts into a diary, and generally get out of your shield in order to heal old wounds.
    The record of Cancers mega-achievers is long, but the source of your power to achieve is not usually aspiration, in the conventional sense. You're just trying to take care of yourself and your family unit. You draw strength from customs of home, society and state. Your hard work to be a hard working civilian kind of naturally shift you into positions of status. Love of family and tradition is a great power for Cancer.

    The Eclipses are Coming! - September 7 and September 22, 2006v

    Eclipses mean changes, good and bad. Where they happen in your chart determines what part of your life they will affect. Eclipses bring significant events into our lives--marriage, divorce, death, birth, career change, etc. Solar eclipses usually mean new beginnings, and lunar eclipses represent finishing things. They are the universe's way of cleaning house, and bringing us in line with life's energy. Even "bad" events bring us to better places. If an eclipse falls near your birthday, the following year will be eventful for you. Also, if it is near your birthday or your rising sign, watch out for health issues. Be sure to eat healthy, get enough rest, etc. Eclipses can be felt a few weeks prior to or up to 30 days past the actual event. If you would like to order a transit chart, I can give you a detailed look at how the eclipses will affect you.
    The Full Moon Lunar Eclipse on September 7 will also be part of an aspect between Jupiter and Uranus with the Sun in Virgo and the Moon in Pisces. This could easily trigger an urge to do some internal housecleaning. We may begin to reexamine our faith and spirituality, or we may find that our connection with our higher power suddenly becomes much stronger. On a more material level, we may find that we are ready to invest in a new computer or electronic device.
    The Solar Eclipse on September 22 will be in Virgo at the Karmic 29 degree point. We had better be ready to wrap up the old and begin the new, because ready or not, its going to happen. It is very likely many of us will take up a new health regime. Virgo's are inclined to health and hygiene. But, Virgo also rules subordinates. If you manage people in any aspect (including parents), this will be a good time to implement some changes you have been considering. Also because we are at the last degree before Libra, relationships may come to endings, or more possibly, new beginnings. If you are single and looking for someone, this eclipse may bring that Mr., or Ms. Right your way.
    The Lunar Eclipse on September 7 will be at 15 degrees Virgo and Pisces. If you have any planets at between 13 and 17 degrees in Gemini or Sagittarius, this eclipse could be especially difficult for you. The Solar Eclipse on September 22 will be at 29 degrees Virgo. If you have any planets between 28 and 29 degrees Gemini or Sagittarius, or if you have any planets between 0 and 1 degrees Cancer or Capricorn, this eclipse may cause extra stress. Also, where these eclipses land in your houses determine what areas of your life that will be affected.

    An Approach to the Avant-Garde - Jupiter Trine Uranus, August 17 through September 8, 2006

    Jupiter and Uranus are slow outer planets with Jupiter taking 12 years and Uranus requiring 84 years to orbit the Sun. It takes anywhere from 4 to 9 years for these two planets to come to a trine, and their influence lasts for a number of weeks. Jupiter represents expansion, generosity, and optimism. Jupiter brings us to look at general principles and our philosophy of life. Uranus is the planet of original thought. He is the electric planet bringing sudden unexpected change. Uranus also rules science and technology, and he encourages us to walk a different path.
    Jupiter and Uranus were at a trine twice over the past few months. The first time was from November 17 through December 7, 2006, then Jupiter turned retrograde and it occurred again April 23 through May 17, 2007. Now Jupiter is moving forward again, and this is the last phase of the Jupiter/Uranus trine. They won't be at this angle again until 2014.
    During this transit we may find ourselves attracted to ideas and thoughts that are at odds with society's norm. We may take a new look at world (or family) politics and be ready for a change. On a larger scale, we may find our governments looking harder and in different directions for peace and prosperity. With Jupiter and Uranus presently in water signs, it may also bring about deeper emotional changes for some of us. Some of us may decide we are tired of being miserable, and we are ready to make some internal changes to find happiness now.
    This aspect will begin on August 17, and it will peak on August 28. But, on September 3, Mercury and the Sun will move to sextile Jupiter and oppose Uranus (creating a right triangle in the zodiac) recharging this aspect through September 8. And, on September 7 the Moon will also enter this triangle making a conjunction to Uranus during a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse. So, this aspect could carry much more weight after it's peak than normal. Uranus and Jupiter will already be encouraging us to try something different, and the eclipse will set the scenario for change. Jupiter is in transit in Scorpio, and Neptune is in Pisces, both emotional water signs, so we may find that its time for emotional healing. But, when the Sun and Mercury move to connect the aspect, they will be in the efficient sign of Virgo. That may motivate us on a more personal level to make some changes in our lives. We may be ready to examine something or a situation from a more detailed view, and we'll probably want to make some changes.
    Also, I wanted to mention that Saturn and Neptune will also be beginning their opposition at this time. Even though the Saturn/Neptune aspect will not be at a major angle to the Jupiter/Uranus aspect, we will be feeling the influence of each of these at the same time. Jupiter and Uranus will be encouraging us to walk a different path, but Saturn and Neptune may be causing some extra worries and holding us back. We may find that in some areas of our life we are ready for something new, but in other areas we are cautious to change. We may feel like we are caught in a tug of war.
    Jupiter will be from 11 degrees to 14 degrees in Scorpio when this aspect occurs. Uranus will be in retrograde from 13 degrees to 12 degrees in Pisces. Check your natal chart. If you have any planets from 9 degrees to 16 degrees in Leo or Aquarius, or if you have any planets from 10 to 15 degrees in Gemini or Sagittarius, this aspect may be more difficult for you.
