August Forecast

Emotions and brainpower collide

Source: California Psychics

Romance sizzles as summer kicks into high gear. Although the Venus-Pluto clash can disrupt relationships at the start of August, other forces weigh in for most of the month to combine emotions (Venus in Cancer) and brainpower (Mars in Gemini) to help you express what you feel.

The twosome will also help you discuss troublesome issues with your sweetie, family, friend or boss. Just watch out for the explosive ménage a trois involving Mercury, Mars and Pluto on Auguest 25 and 26, which can cause small irritations to erupt into arguments - or more physical confrontations - especially for Aries, Cancer, Libra or Capricorn.

Planets in motion
If you feel like you're treading water instead of moving forward, it's most likely due to retrograde Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. Retrogrades make us turn inward before we take our newfound knowledge, healing or sense of direction, out into the world. No worries - you'll feel a gradual acceleration of energy after Pluto turns direct on September 11, Jupiter on October 12, Neptune on November 4 and Uranus on December 1. Until then, focus on your inner life through meditation, dream analysis or therapy - whatever gets you in touch with your heart and soul.

Transit tales
Mercury transiting out of fiery Leo and into persnickety Virgo on August 2 favors practical, analytical discussions. It's time to examine your goals, down to the last detail. On August 25, the planet of talk transits into Libra, which favors discussions about justice, art and relationships.

Speaking of romance, Venus in Cancer can inspire you to create a beautiful ambiance at home, both for your own enjoyment and for entertaining. Family activities are also favored. Then passion takes over after Venus transits into lusty Leo on August 26.

Mars energizes brainy discussions and travel as it transits through Gemini. When it enters Cancer on August 25, homey endeavors and family interactions are energized. Finally, the Sun entering Virgo on August 22 focuses on health and service-related activities.

Lunar magic
The Full Moon eclipse in Aquarius on August 5 energizes friendly gatherings, community projects and humanitarian endeavors. The Aquarius motto "we are all one" gets us in touch with our similarities as a people. However, the eclipse makes you feel emotionally unsteady, so take some quiet time during the day and breathe. The New Moon in Leo on August 20 brings a new cycle of emotional expression, especially in relationships. It also inspires your creativity, playfulness and leadership ability.

Planetary highlights

August 1: Venus opposing Pluto can cause jealousy, secrecy, power struggles and financial issues to erupt, especially for Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn.

August 2: Mercury entering Virgo favors detailed, analytical discussions and agreements.

August 3: Mercury trine Pluto favors research, financial agreements and metaphysical discussions.

August 5: Full Moon eclipse in Aquarius energizes group activities, friendships and humanitarian endeavors.

August 10: Mars square Saturn erects a roadblock to taking action, especially for Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces.

August 13: Mars trine Jupiter energizes activities involving teaching and learning, spirituality, travel, and physical endurance.

August 14: Sun opposing Jupiter can prompt you to promise more than you can deliver, especially if you're a Taurus, Leo, Scorpio or Aquarius.

August 17: Mars trine Neptune favors taking action on your spiritual beliefs and creative ideas.

Sun opposing Neptune favors creative and spiritual activities, but can cloud your judgment, especially if you're a Taurus, Leo, Scorpio or Aquarius.

Mercury conjunct Saturn in Virgo favors detailed, practical discussions and analyses, but can stymie more personal communications.

August 18: Mars square Uranus prompts rash behavior and combativeness, especially for Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces.

August 20: New Moon in Leo energizes romance, creativity and activities involving entertainment and children.

August 21: Mercury opposing Uranus can trigger erratic communications, technological snafus and brilliant but impractical ideas, especially for Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces.

August 22: Venus trine Uranus electrifies romance and can produce love-at-first-sight scenarios, especially for Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces.

Sun entering Virgo highlights activities involving work, health and service.

August 23: Sun trine Pluto favors taking a risk on creative projects and business proposals.

August 25: Mercury entering Libra prompts discussions or negotiations involving relationships, law and art.

Mars entering Cancer energizes activities and issues concerning home and family.

August 25 - 26: An explosive T-cross involving Mercury, Mars and Pluto can cause argumentativeness, subterfuge and power struggles, especially for Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces.

August 26: Venus entering Leo energizes romantic trysts and creative projects.

Imperfections by Sign

Manage those annoying habits

by Red

Source: California Psychics

Free Personal Horoscope - (Sara Freder)

Many people turn to Astrology in hopes of deciphering which Sun Sign indicates the perfect mate for them. Fire signs are cherished for their passion, while Earth signs are often sought out for their stability and sensuality. You can't beat an Air sign if intellect and lots of energy are your personal turn-ons, and if it's emotion you crave Water signs are definitely the way to go.

Each Sign of the Zodiac blesses those born under their watch with an infusion of characteristics and traits, but not every attribute is going to be perfectly charming. Every sign also has at least one annoying or undesirable trait. While these characteristics may serve us well in everyday life, they may also be amplified -or even cause problems - in our romantic relationships.

The truth is, it is highly unlikely that any one of us will ever find, or become, "the perfect mate." So, while no one is perfect, with a little effort we can learn to give those we love a little slack in these areas, and tone down some of our own bigger flaws as well, for the sake of our relationships.

Leo may shine as brightly as the sun, but Lions sometimes need to accept that they aren't necessarily the center of the universe. Recognize that when your ego expands, it can do so with enough force to clear a room.

Virgo is the sign of those who can literally worry themselves to death. What they may not realize is that when they are stressed, their worries tend to be expressed as powerful, painful criticism. These gentle beings don't recognize their own strength. A little self-observation - and restraint - can hold off a tirade of belittling complaints.

Libra believes everything can be balanced, but during the process may tip the scales narcissistically in one direction. When it appears that your partner is becoming unreasonable or too demanding, it would be wise to look at the situation in terms of "we," rather than "me." Do this, and the balance you seek may accidentally appear!

Scorpio has a thing for being in control, which translates into being controlling. Whether you know it or not, you are the masters of silent manipulation. We all know you like to finish on top, but when it comes to relationships, ask yourself if you're just in it for the game. Or is it really your partner's heart you're trying to win?

Sagittarius needs to recognize that their eternal restlessness is a personal issue, not a relationship issue. Your partner loves your free spirit and your independence, but they also want to feel like a part of your life. If you want love to last, then accept that relationship responsibility doesn't have to equal restriction - but it must encompass partnership.

Capricorn may believe that they are always right (and most of the time, they are!), but they should be open to accepting that their partner has the right to disagree. If you are a more insecure Capricorn, you must also understand that dependence doesn't create love security.

Aquarius independence can be hard for others to understand - so explain it to them! While there is no shame in being proud of some of your more eccentric behaviors and expectations, your guarded nature in love can come across as extremely cold and aloof. Trusting people with your heart may not come easily, but not trusting is likely to be even more painful.

Pisces often confuse pity with caring, and have a way of defining themselves by the burdens they bear. There is such a thing as "too much drama!" When you lose yourself in the lower vibrations of depression, you drag those you love into despair with you. Sometimes, dear Pisces, the best thing you can do for yourself is to learn how to simply suck it up - or let it go.

Aries could stand to learn that not every thought that goes through their head needs to escape their mouths. These high-strung, spirited souls can break down their partner with acid words, not realizing the pain they cause in their quest to be the boss. Aries, be mindful that your partner is supposed to be by your side, not running to catch up - or carelessly left behind.

Taurus tends to be stubborn to the point of uncompromising. In relationships, it is possible for them to get so caught up in their own ideas, material needs, and judgments that they forget they have a partner at all. So come up for air once in a while, and look at all the love around you!

Gemini may think at the speed of light, but they often forget that others don't. As articulate as this sign can be, they often have trouble expressing themselves when it comes to their emotional needs. Unless you are with a mind reader, you must consider taking the risk and asking for what you need, and telling the other person what it is that you fear.

Cancer can be crabby, and any Crab certainly knows how to hold a grudge. Some of these tender-hearted creatures would find life to be easier - and relationships more rewarding - if they would step back for a moment and grow a thicker skin. Lighten up! Forgiveness is much easier when you realize that those who love you aren't necessarily trying to hurt you.

Whatever your sign, both you and your mate will have some eccentricities. At the end of the day, you can both hide behind the sun sign excuse - or you can recognize that there is always opportunity to improve. If you can curb some of your quirks, your partner may follow your lead and do the same. You have nothing to lose - and you may have a whole lot to gain!

Can you control your quirks? Let a psychic guide you in a reading today. Call 1.800.573.4830 or click here now.

Learning Life's Lessons

How to measure your soul...

Source: California Psychics

How can we know for sure when we've learned a life lesson? When do we see that we have successfully conquered an obstacle the universe has placed before us - as we move through our spiritual evolution here on earth? If, as our psychics say, life is our teacher and the earth is our classroom, how do we know if we've passed a particular course?

Mindfulness and awareness are key, our psychics report. If we are examining our lives - watching, listening, reflecting and using our intuition to understand the bigger picture that our troubles and trials are presenting us with - we can then take another step toward our soul's growth.

Here's how it works, Debra ext. 9596 reports. "We know we are going through a life lesson when we are so in the dark about ourselves and the direction life is taking, that it is beyond our comprehension… And, life lessons simply cannot be figured out - they must be endured and experienced."

"It's important to note that these life lessons are not punishments - they are situations created to help us let go of the things that do not serve our lives or our soul's growth," Shandra ext. 8627 reminds us.

"As we journey through life, it is very, very rare that a human soul will learn a life lesson from one trial," Debra continues. "So we can also look at repeating patterns for clues to what our lessons are. If it seems that you just keep attracting the same unwanted circumstances, you can be sure that you are dealing with a very valuable life lesson. Once you have truly learned and integrated a life lesson, you will naturally begin to live from it in a new and different way. You will experience a major shift in perception, and things will shift of their own accord, as if by magic."

The understanding that we have learned a lesson comes to us in different ways, our psychics point out, and they usually come with a sense that something has changed - that life is taking a turn for the better, or that we can finally relax with a sense of knowing.

It ranges from simply seeing that we've learned a big lesson - and then we move into a happier state of being, explains Judianne ext. 5129. Or, the obstacles we've been struggling with dissolve, Teva ext. 5141 points out. It can come to you in an "a-ha ' moment, where you feel as if a light bulb has gone off - you recognize what you've learned, and that it was hard - but now you feel at peace, Kimari ext. 5182 relates. Paisley ext. 9661 tells us that as we live with the lessons learned we begin to attract different and better situations and people into our lives.

Many of our psychics, including Stevie ext. 5181, add that along with the lesson learned, often comes a need to share it, to teach others and to be of service to those who need help along the way.

"We share the lesson with others who need our experience, our strength and our hope. We keep the gift of knowledge by giving it away. Those who are parents give a gift to their children by living healthier lives based on the lessons, and our offspring benefit by seeing us as the best we can be," Christian ext. 5175 explains.

But what if we go through the difficult job of learning the lesson, and then live as if we hadn't? We will just keep getting "whispers" that turn into bigger and bigger wakeup calls from the universe that get us to relearn or to integrate the lesson, Josepha ext. 5170 points out. "In my readings, my guides often work with people who find it hard to see the truth."

"The universe tailors lessons to fit our souls, exactly!" Debra reveals. "What often happens is that we end up repeating the same patterns and failures over and over again, until we are finally so sick of our circumstances that we do anything to change - and that is when we really learn."

Glamorous Leo Women!

3 splendid stars revealed
Source: California Psychics

With the Sun as her ruler, no one shines quite like a Leo lady. The lioness of the zodiac is charming, sexy, warm-hearted, loyal and generous. She thrives on recognition and can also be stubborn, proud, demanding and willful.

As a fixed sign, Leos are virtually unstoppable in getting what they want, whether it's a relationship, job, attention or just a material object of desire. But what Leos are most known for is creativity, which is the foundation of their personal power. Superstars Charlize Theron, Halle Berry and Sandra Bullock - all lionesses of the silver screen - have reached the pinnacle of creative and financial power through their sparkle and talent.

But not all Leos are alike. Other placements in the chart will modify a sign's personality, gifts and challenges. Let's take an astrological look at the lovely Leos above to discover their similarities - and their differences.

Charlize Theron (August 7, 1975)
This alluring Leo is a dynamic powerhouse with plenty of fire. She was born in South Africa, during a New Moon - which means she has both Sun and Moon in the same sign. This certainly amplifies the characteristics of Leo, making her strong-willed, creative, loving and loyal. And gorgeous! Still, it was sheer talent that earned her an Academy Award for Best Actress for her gritty portrayal of a serial killer in Monster (2003). Adding to Theron's talent as an actor is Mercury in Leo, which gives her the gift of creative expression through words.

As for romance, Theron is reportedly engaged to actor Stuart Townshend. Venus in Virgo says she's particular about who she gets close to. Still, a square from Neptune indicates an attraction to people who are sometimes wrong for her, or troubled in some way. On the positive side, Neptune also gives her a soft heart for those in need. Not surprisingly, Theron is an activist for the rights of women and animals, among others. Heightening her need for security is Mars in Taurus, which also gives her a sizzling sensuality. All in all, this Leo is both fiery and grounded.

Halle Berry (August 14, 1966)
Berry was born in Cleveland, Ohio, just before the New Moon, which indicates Moon in either Cancer or early Leo, depending on her time of birth. Moon in Cancer would deepen her sensitivity and emotional expression. Family and motherhood would be a major focus in her life. If she has Moon in Leo, her emotions would be closely tied to her creative expression and the need for recognition. What's more, like Theron, Berry has Mercury in Leo, which fires up her verbal skills. This influence helped her win an Academy Award for Best Actress in Monster's BallIntroducing Dorothy Dandridge (1999). Dandridge had starred in the film Carmen Jones (1954), and had become the first African-American woman to be nominated for a leading-actress Oscar. (2001), which made Berry the first African-American woman to win that award. Interestingly, Berry had previously portrayed Dorothy Dandridge in HBO's biopic,

Even without Moon in Cancer, Berry has Venus, Mars and Jupiter conjunct in that sign, indicating a deeply feminine nature and love of home and family. She has a powerful desire to nurture - Berry gave birth to a daughter in 2008, and she had also adopted her second husband's daughter some years earlier. As for romance, Berry's love life has been rocky, probably due to a Sun-Neptune affliction. This influence is similar to Theron's in that it can cloud her judgment in men. Berry has been married twice, and currently lives with the father of her baby. In true Neptunian fashion, she is an activist for victims of domestic violence, of which she has personal experience.

Sandra Bullock (July 26, 1964)
This saucy Leo was born in Arlington, Virginia, during a Full Moon. This means she has Moon in Aquarius (or perhaps early Pisces), the opposite of her Sun sign. The Air emphasis gives Bullock a friendly, charismatic personality that thrives on socializing. Whereas Berry is super-sensitive and takes things personally, Bullock is more detached and intellectual in her approach to life. Still, she's warm-hearted, generous and needs recognition - as befits a Leo - but she is also broad-minded and objective. And like Theron and Berry, she has Mercury in expressive Leo.

Adding to her brainpower are Venus and Mars in Gemini. Bullock has flirting down to a science. She loves the social stimulation that comes from cultivating a wide circle of friends. She's also versatile, with a gift for comedy demonstrated in Two Weeks' Notice (2002) and The Proposal (2008) - as well as for drama in Crash (2005) and The Lake House (2006). The Gemini influences indicate some fickleness, but Bullock has been married only once - to Jesse G. James, a television personality and the CEO of a motorcycle company. He's an Aries - a Fire sign, who obviously lights her fire.

As with these extraordinary Leo women, on or off the screen it's hard to resist the mind, heart and soul of a Leo woman.

Love From Beyond...

A reading heals grief
Source: California Psychics

Sometimes a psychic's experience during a reading can be as fascinating and mesmerizing as the client's. There can be profound learning experiences about life and the afterlife, and the everlasting nature of love, explains Darcy ext. 9488, a Channel Medium. She confides that even after giving readings for 30 years, it still surprises her when the unexpected occurs during a call.

Early one afternoon, the psychic relates, she recognized the smooth, low, friendly voice of a caller who gave his name as Julian (not his real name). He had consulted with her once before regarding his career. A working actor in New York with psychic abilities and the gift of prophetic dreams, Julian wondered, "With jobs harder to come by, several friends have asked if I would do paid in-depth readings for them, but I just don't know. There are so many reasons not to do it - and reasons to do it. I don't really need the money,and I don't want people to begin thinking of me as an intuitive, rather than an actor."

"This call was interesting from the start," Darcy reported as she described the energy she received from Julian. "I got a very perky feeling as we spoke about his career - and yet he was actually quite solemn."

As Darcy focused on the actor, she understood that he had suffered much personal loss. Working as an Empath would affect him emotionally - and not in a good way. It would be too hard on him to take on the work, which involves feeling what others feel, she suggested.

"I think you're right," he responded thoughtfully. "I didn't know exactly what I was feeling, but I think you went right to the heart of my concerns, Darcy. I'm not in a good place right now. I just lost a close friend, an actor who died too young, and who suffered significantly. You may have read about her in the papers. And I've had this dream I want to discuss with you - in my dream, my cousin - who also died, a year ago - was taking a picture of me and the friend who just passed away."

Darcy heard a voice in her head filled with laughter, and got a picture of a beautiful high-rise office, which she described to Julian, as well as the sensation of feeling very beautiful and being surrounded by expensive fabrics. "I told Julian that I felt a very different presence - lighthearted, bubbling happiness. I felt it was the one who had guided me to his first message."

"You're getting someone from the other side?"

"Yes. He's telling me that you need to be in a relationship - and something about your clothes…"

"Hmmm… Reed? He was an immaculate dresser," Julian confirmed.

"Did you grow up together? He's showing me a picture of you as a boy on a skateboard - with your cap on backward. He says you were always the jock."

Julian laughed, "Not quite the jock, but I was definitely into sports. He was always into clothes."

"You were very, very close. He says he always had to keep an eye on you," Darcy related.

"Well he thought that, because he's six months older than I am. Our moms both worked, so my grandmother watched us. We were like brothers, until…" Julian paused.

"He says he's still keeping an eye on you."

"Okay, so now, I have tears in my eyes. I miss him every day."

"He's opening up your closet doors, he has sweats thrown over his shoulder, he wants to get rid of them."

Julian relaxed a bit, enjoying the familiarity of the exchange. "He never liked the way I dressed. I suppose he's telling you that's why I don't have a relationship."

"He says you look for dates in all the wrong places."

"Where should I look?"

"The golf course," Darcy conveyed.

Just then the one-minute beep warned Julian and Darcy that the reading was about to end, and Julian repeated, "Tell him I love him, I miss him, I wish… " and then there was silence.

Darcy was still thinking about what had just occurred as she got up to get a fresh cup of coffee. Reed was tagging along behind her, she realized, letting her know that he was still concerned about Julian, when her CaliforniaPsychics.com line rang. It was Julian again.

"Oh good, Reed is still here, worrying about you. You need a relationship..."

"Ah. I'm just not into it," he said sounding somewhat futile. "Everyone leaves you…"

Darcy got a picture of Reed in a hospital bed, all skin and bones, hooked up to machines - with Julian right there with him.

"So is this how you remember me? What about all of those years of good times…" Reed ranted to his cousin. "You promised me you'd live out my life out for me. You're going to live to be 93!"

And then the one-minute beep went off again… this time, Julian was silent as the time ran out.

When Darcy's line rang next, she knew it would be Julian again.

"Okay so tell Reed I'm remembering the living to be 93 stuff - but I'm not sure about changing my wardrobe. I will keep my eyes open for someone at the golf course." In the minutes that were left, Julian spoke of his appreciation for his cousin's watchful eye.

"And before this call ends, Darcy, thanks a million. I can't tell you how much better I feel."

And Darcy, ecstatic from what had just occurred in a little over an hour's time, thought as their third and final call came to a close, "And thank you for the opportunity to share a glimpse into your amazing bond of love."

Whilst studying Architecture at Bournemouth College of Art!

I used to hire paddle steamers and promote Jazz. The first event was in 1960 and was an outstanding success. I promoted this with fellow student Mike Ross from Winton if my memory serves me correct.

With my share of the profit I took a cross channel ferry, a train to Paris and then another to Madrid.

I arrived unannounced at the doorstep of a Spanish Senorita that I had met the previous summer holidays whilst working as a waiter in a Swanage hotel to help pay for my architectural studies.

We enjoyed "cuba libres" on the Calle Serano and dancing in the Retiro Park:-)

As you will see from the 2 tickets above I carried on promoting with a partner the trombone player with the Gerry Brown Jazzmen. I had suggested to him, Stewart Gledhill that Gerry Brown recorded a version of "The Green Fields of Summer" from The Alamo. He did not listen and Kenny Ball recorded it and it was an instant success making this traditional jazz band. They obviously wanted more that the seventy five pound fee agreed, but there was a contract that they could not break.
