Revealing what's in your heart inspires love at the start of the week. Passion and willfulness escalate, midweek. The Moon in Sagittarius fires up over the weekend, but disruptions from Saturn and Uranus can derail romance. Best days for love: Monday and Tuesday.

Week of June 29 - July 5, 2009

Cancer: Dinner at your abode and a romantic or artsy DVD will inspire love at the start of the week. Your mystique is irresistible midweek, so plan a sexy date with that someone, or seek out a new connection while socializing with friends. A misunderstanding can cause emotional chaos this weekend. Strive to see all points of view.

Leo: Heartfelt words and playful flirting inspire love on Monday and especially Tuesday. Expressing appreciation makes love bloom as well. You're feeling charged up and willful mid-week, when an embarrassing situation can turn into a passionate interlude! You're ready for action this weekend, but lack of money or interrupted plans can throw you off track.

Virgo: Your sense of style makes you irresistible at the start of the week, so put work aside and throw a party (for two?). Flirting brings out your naughty side and makes passion sizzle, midweek. A trip can inspire romance as well. A conflict between freedom and duty arises this weekend. Lighten up, to inspire love!

Libra: The cosmos smiles on your love life on Monday - and especially Tuesday. Look for love during a friendly gathering or unusual activity. Your creativity is on fire as well. Passion can get out of control, maybe in a good way, midweek, when your instincts take over! Flirting makes passion soar this weekend - if you can avoid argumentativeness.

Scorpio: Serene or artsy surroundings help love to soar at the beginning of the week, so plan a cozy night in. You're especially intuitive, too, so take some quiet time for meditation and heed your inner voice. Your magnetism skyrockets mid-week, but you'll be irritated easily. You're all fired up this weekend, but socializing could feel stilted or unreliable.

Sagittarius: A gathering of friends can bring romance and other opportunities at the beginning of the week. Your powers of attraction are especially strong on Tuesday. A hot date at your abode energizes you mid-week. Heed your intuition, too. Your charisma draws admirers this weekend, but you'll be on shaky ground emotionally.

Capricorn: Fine food and drink in a luxurious setting inspire romance at the start of the week. A career opportunity may present itself, too. A steamy encounter is nearly assured midweek. Spending time with friends can bring joy as well. You're unusually restless this weekend, when issues around control or secrecy can ignite an argument.

Aquarius: The future of your love life can be yours to see - if you heed your intuition at the beginning of the week. Look for love during a class or a spiritual gathering. You're feeling unusually contentious or moody in the middle of the week. Your wild child comes out to play this weekend, which may prompt some criticism from others.

Pisces: Your imagination can heighten a romantic interlude on Monday or Tuesday, so be creative! Letting go of an old emotional wound will also open the door to love. Your sexy side comes out to play midweek, when passion escalates. You're feeling unpredictable this weekend. Mixed messages can throw love off track, so strive for clarity.

Aries: An outing for two can bring delight at the beginning of the week, so plan a date with your sweetie - or keep your eyes open for someone new and fabulous. Lust escalates in the middle of the week, although feeling vulnerable can throw you off balance. Passion sizzles in an exotic ambiance this weekend, but a family conflict may disrupt your plans.

Taurus: Use your artistry to create an enticing ambiance for love at the start of the week. Your sensuality draws others like a magnet on Wednesday and Thursday, but a clash of wills or a miscommunication can derail your plans. Your daring side revs up romance this weekend, but a friend may be troublesome.

Gemini: Your charisma kicks into high gear at the beginning of the week, when a romantic interlude can deepen love - if you come from the heart. Feelings are hot but irrational, midweek. Look for romance during a healthful (or helpful) activity. Partnership challenges (responsibility? family?) abound this weekend. Strive to compromise.

Managing Milestones. Do happy times make you sad?

by S.K. Smith

Source: California Psychics

Whether it's getting a degree, landing that big promotion, being married, having a child or any of the other markers of personal progress, milestones are universally acknowledged as happy times in our lives. But what if they make you sad?

Well for starters, you're not alone. While there's no doubt that beginning a new chapter or accomplishing a long held goal is exciting and in many ways fulfilling, it can also be overwhelming and scary. Nevermind the often-ignored fact that every new beginning brings with it the end of something that came before. Contrary to greeting cards and wedding websites and congratulatory toasts, managing milestones is not always as simple as celebration. Moving through life is a thoughtful process - and the memorable times that mark transition deserve just as much attention (and reflection) as all the others… maybe even more.

If you're faced with a milestone that needs managing (and in one way or another, all of them do), keep the following tips in mind.

Don't ignore what's eating you
Everyone around you is telling you how happy they are for you, how much you deserve this great thing or how well-suited to it you are. Beyond the initial excitement or sense of achievement, however, you feel something akin to panic, dread, loss or fear. You know that what's happening is something you want - or at least something you've wanted - but it's not as joyous and carefree as you'd imagined it would be. It might even be downright terrifying! In turn, you assume there's something wrong with you. Maybe you're just not like other people and you're not meant to have these things… maybe they're not what you really want anyway.

Well, that may be true (it's always important to pay attention to how your goals and desires change along the way), but one thing's for sure. You're not crazy to feel mixed emotions - and mixed emotions don't mean you shouldn't proceed. Unless the negatives truly outweigh the positives (in which case, you may want to give pause) cut yourself some slack and have a closer look at what's going on inside! Sure, it may be easier to shut out whatever is making this transition complicated, but you're much better off to face it head on and experience it so it doesn't rear its head later.

Confront your emotions - even if you have to figure out what they are first! Odds are a little self-exploration and honesty will bring you to the source of the complexity… and that understanding will help ease your fears.

Acknowledge your loss
One of the troubles with our celebratory approach to transition is that we're 100% future focused without acknowledging that we're letting go of a piece of ourselves in the process. Never again will you be that kid struggling for their big break at work or the single person searching for the one… Even if you are in a similar situation again, it'll never be without this experience.

Opening a new chapter means closing another one and it's vital that you give that last chapter its due. After all, you changed and grew and laughed and cried and got to know yourself a whole lot better in the process of getting to where you are at this moment. Reminiscing over times gone by - mourning the parts you'll miss even - doesn't mean you don't want to move on into this new phase! It means you're human. Letting go of the old you is part of this rite of passage. But don't worry… even as your life is changing, at your core, you're probably not as different as you think!

Accept that change is scary
Finally, by their very definition, milestones imply change. What's scary about change is that it removes certainty. You know what your life has been while you've been single or working toward your goal, but you don't know what to expect now that you're transitioning. So you're scared… Well here's the truth: you'd be strange if you weren't at least a little bit worried! Fear about the unknown is normal - and universal. If you acknowledge this fact you'll probably find everyone else will too.

The upside here is that fear brings with it excitement. And believe it or not, the two go hand in hand. While fear provides you with the caution you need to assess your options wisely, excitement supplies the nerve you need to take a chance every once in a while. So, if you can relax and let your seemingly contradictory emotions co-exist for a little while, you'll find you can face any challenge that comes your way.

After all, you've always done it before. Resilience is what brought you here in the first place, and the universe never gives us anything we're not already equipped to handle.

Spiritual Summer Books

Life-enhancing beach reads
by Adrianne Stone
Source: California Psychics

With summer upon us, visions of blessedly unplanned waterside forays come to mind. But after you slather on the SPF gazillion, how will you spend your time on the beach blanket? Perhaps you will want to nap or meditate, but when you're done with all that and out of fresh ideas to ruminate upon, your best bet is a good book to capture your imagination.

Better yet, you may want to choose from the bounty of books that will keep you feeling upbeat and give you some of the tools to help you tackle the world once your summer break is over.

Secrets to success
Where to start? How about with Positivity, by Barbara Fredrickson? She stresses optimism's effect on your creativity. By taking note of your physical surroundings and viewing life as a glass that's half-full, you are more likely to derive the positive energy that will open your mind to new concepts and allow you to flourish.

In the book, Fredrickson - a psychology professor - points out that positivity isn't merely happiness. It is something that is exuded from such positive emotions as "love, joy, gratitude, serenity, interest, and inspiration" as they "touch and open your heart." You know how you get that slightly choked up, get that goosebumps-on-your-arm feeling when you've done a true kindness to someone else? According to Positivity, you should latch on to that feeling, and let it spread over you. While you're awash with that positive energy you are primed for vibrant thoughts and creative gusto. She also points out that people who have positivity in their lives tend to bounce back from adversity faster, and live more productive lives.

In Rapt: Attention and the Focused Life, Winifred Gallagher writes about focusing more while undertaking endeavors of various kinds. She cites Tiger Woods as an example of someone whose discipline contributed to his success as a golfer. Presumably, he wasn't pulled away from his focus by techno toys or Twittering, which would have kept him from his primary intent. Furthermore, she notes that happy people tend to focus on the positive, whereas unhappy people don't. Not surprising! But she says that even a "Debbie Downer" can use cognitive theory and mindfulness meditation to eventually look - as Monty Python's Brian did - on the bright side of life.

Another reading option for manifesting positive life circumstances is The Circle: How the Power of a Single Wish Can Change Your Life by Laura Day. This updated version contains a workbook to help you define your path and reach it with greater cognition. Day stresses that you can change your world by making "subtle, organic changes in yourself," and that "often, the change comes as a result of timing and opportunity." It's no coincidence that this is also the formula for success. But the subtle shift that occurs when you find yourself at the crossroad of "Timing Road and Opportunity Boulevard" is what opens you to positive change. You'll learn to create your own reality through exercises, explanations, and visualization techniques that are designed to allow change for the better.

Self-defense
If it's resilience that you need to work on, then try reading The Secrets of the Bulletproof Spirit: How to Bounce Back From Life's Hardest Hits, by Azim Khamisa and Jillian Quinn. The authors state that there are essentially two types of people: There are those who fling their arms skyward and cry "why me?" when hit with adversity, and then lash out at others and become defeatist in their attitudes. And there are those who face adversity head on, acquiring greater strength from it with a sort of "that which doesn't kill me makes me stronger" attitude. We see this in Holocaust survivors who embrace life even after the unthinkable was inflicted upon them. They are likely to live longer, happier lives than those who become mired in the darkness that befell them. Khamisa, a peace activist, and Quinn, an inspirational speaker, collaborate to provide 30 keys that define your resiliency quotient, types of negative thinking that may be keeping you down, and ways to take control of your life. You will find yourself emotionally bulletproof if you can absorb the advice imparted in this book, the authors promise. Sounds like a winner!

As for all those excuses you like to throw out for any number of issues, you'll have to quash them once you read Excuses Begone!: How to Change Lifelong, Self-Defeating Thinking Habits, by Wayne W. Dyer. No more will you be able to point to your age as an excuse for being single, or your busy life as an excuse for lack of exercise, or your emotional ties as an excuse for staying in a dying relationship. This book teaches you to change your habitual thinking, and open yourself up to reexamination by attacking each excuse with specific questions - and then following a step-by-step process to achieve a new awareness and approach. Don't have time to read this? Excuses, excuses!

Emotional cleansing
Finally, there's Emotional Freedom, by Judith Orloff, which teaches you to trade anxiety and stress for happiness and serenity. She helps you pinpoint your emotional weaknesses and find emotional strength via anecdotal information, psychology, and energy techniques. With constructive plans to ward off everything from energy vampires to feelings of being overwhelmed, she leaves you feeling in control of your life and better able to handle the challenges that arise. The book is written in a conversational style, and Orloff draws you in to each of her chapters while giving you exercises to combat your emotional issues (and, yes: everyone has them).

With all that good reading and sound advice filling up your beach bag or backpack, you should have a full summer's worth of spiritual uplift awaiting you!

Online dating companies policy?

They may not be fraudulent but their "special" interest is keeping couples separate - so why join them?

"It also came to the point that the agencies/in formal USSR countries!?/ have their "special" interest of keeping couples separately . Otherwise with all the dating sites available on the net why should exist on-line
marriage agencies?

I think it's not a good idea to discuss this issue here any more. Hope you will understand what I mean."


Have you experienced this? Why not share the information in comments?

This could explain why the two planned meetings between my friend from Gorlovka have never happened. Translators can censor what is written by parties so a meeting does not take place for their financial interest.

************************************************

Они не могут быть мошенническими, но свои "особые" интерес держит пари отдельно, - с тем, почему вместе с ними?

"Это также пришли к точке, что учреждения / в официальном СССР!? / Иметь свои" особые "интересы поддержания пары отдельно. В противном случае все сайты знакомств доступны в сети, почему должна существовать по-лайн
брачные агентства?

Я считаю, что это не очень хорошая идея для обсуждения этого вопроса здесь больше. Надеюсь, вы поймете, что я имею в виду ".

Столкнулись ли вы с этим? Почему бы не поделиться информацией в комментариях?

Это могло бы объяснить, почему два планируется встреча с моим другом Горловка, никогда не произошло. Translators цензор может то, что написано стороны так встреча происходит не за их финансовые интересы.
