Plain water is too, well, plain, for many people, causing them to opt instead for sparkling. Sparkling, seltzer, fizzy, bubbly, club, or soda water is water that has been put under pressure to create fizz. In other words, water is “married” with pressurized carbon dioxide to create those delightful little bubbles that dance all over your tongue. […]

in the wee hours it happened already. Did you wake up from dreams of pirates adventures traveling perhaps otherworldly adventures? Did you have a funny or embarrassing dreamof being naked on the street dream? Did you dream of unicorns rainbows and treasures at the end of them?
That’s the kind of dream stuff a Jupiter ruled night would be like.

You may be feeling like you are still in a dream sleepwalker head in the clouds dreamy daydreaming or otherwise not all here. This Neptunian mist will be persits all day. That’s what NEPTUNE does to you. Also a dream of finding a soul mate to adventure with to tell the world the truth with; to be comrades in arms with optimism. You have to be able to see the humor about spirituality and New Agey things today too.

Appaṃ vata jīvitaṃ idaṃ!
Oraṃ vassasatāpi miyyati,
yo cepi aticca jīvati,

How short this life!
You die this side of a century,
but even if you live past,
you die of old age.
Sutta Nipāta 4.810
Translated from Pāli by Thanissaro Bhikkhu
Pondering one’s direction in life is much like deciding on your next move in a game of chess. Indecision is often based on two things…our lack of certainty as to the outcome of our choices, and fear of the unknown itself. Very rarely are we given a glimpse into the realities of our future, and a roadmap as to where our choices may lead.
If you should find yourself uncertain about a decision right now, and you are rather sitting on the fence trying to decide, know that it is ok. I feel very strongly that the time to act upon clear choices before you is coming after the New Moon Partial Solar Eclipse in Aquarius on the 15th. Right now we are in the space in between, and there are simply too many variables. So, you are not wrong to hesitate. Wait, for before month’s end, you will have…

Gregg Braden talks about harmonizing heart and brain and why we should do it.
Our health is dramatically affected by the balance of the pH levels in our body. These levels need to be about 7.4, or in an alkaline range. Therefore, following an alkaline diet, consisted of nutrient- rich natural vegetables and fruit, will be of great help for maintaining god health and proper body functions. The following […]

OMG! Have you ever had one of those moments? “I knew that was going to happen!“, is a phrase that many of us often hear ourselves saying. Today appears to be no exception, as our High Priestess is the all-knowing, the keeper of intuition. How we develop that intuition, and treat it as our ally, can indeed aid us on life’s journey.
There is a quote “Silence the mind and the soul will speak“. This is so very true, and sometimes, in order to gain a better perspective, we need to take that time out, go within, and listen to our inner voice. Some days it is absolutely screaming, wanting you to pay attention. Today is one of those days you need to heed the words of your inner voice.

This is an unusual day as 4 planets including the SUN connect through semi-sextile aspects.
semi-sextile glyph
A semi-sextile is a 30-degree connection between planets and considered a minor aspect. They are in neighboring signs to each other-ahead or behind. Are they good neighbors or bad neighbors? It largely depends on the two planets qualities themselves and how the two signs get along. All neighboring signs have qualities very different to each other.
A semi-sextile is an unseen opportunity requiring activation. A sextile is 60 degrees and considered to be an easy positive aspect. Some astrologers consider a semi-sextile to be like an inconjunct but softer. Other astrologers see a semi-sextile as a hidden opportunity.

Warmest greetings and a Happy Aloha Thursday to you all. Wishing you all a fantastic day. Peace be with you.
In both music and manner, Quincy Jones has always registered — from afar, anyway — as smooth, sophisticated, and impeccably well-connected. (That’s what earning 28 Grammy awards and co-producing Michael Jackson’s biggest-selling albums will do.) But in person, the 84-year-old music-industry macher is far spikier and more complicated. “All I’ve ever done is tell the truth,” says Jones, seated on a couch in his palatial Bel Air home, and about to dish some outrageous gossip. “I’ve got nothing to be scared of, man.” […]

Healing does not mean the damage never existed: it means the damage no longer controls your life.
The Moon moved into Scorpio yesterday and will stay there until her transit into Sagittarius on Thursday. My Moon is in Scorpio and I am feeling her intensity today. Even if you weren’t born with the Moon in Scorpio a few days a month everyone can feel her influence and intensity. Her passion, desire, sorrow, and excitement resonates deep within the energy of our souls.
The waning Scorpio Moon is a perfect time to get in touch with deep, powerful emotions and release what does not make you stronger. This is a time to face your fears, banish negative energy, and conquer any unhealthy habits that inhibit you from mental and spiritual growth. The Scorpion can also lash out and strike viciously. Be mindful of this and focus your energy on the positive side of the Scorpion. .
The thyroid gland, an endocrine butterfly-shaped gland located at the base of the neck, below the Adam’s apple, is an extremely important one. The thyroid gland releases two hormones which have an influence on the entire metabolism. It releases thyroxin, which affects almost all of the body systems, as well as triiodothyronine, which affects the […]

A lot of people make resolutions to eat healthier in the New Year, but in my work as a registered dietitian, I’ve found that guidelines that are too strict can leave people bailing on their goals in just a few weeks—or even a few days! My goal, as not only a healthy professional but someone who loves food, has always been to recreate my favorite childhood classics with a healthier and unique twist so that I can avoid restricting myself too much.

Turns out, a LOT of different factors determine how you’ll respond to caffeine.
We’ve all heard the hype about how bad coffee is for our bodies and how we all need to cut back. We’ve also all heard coffee praised as a natural drink that benefits our digestive system and other parts of our body. So what’s a person to do? I love my coffee and I’m often stuck in a tailspin regarding whether or not it’s good for me, all while gripping a mug in my right hand full of delicious cafe delight. […]
The aftermath of the last Lunar Eclipse is partly what is responsible for the stock market crash but this is a deeper longer term event. My intuition tells me that the secret cabal that runs the Federal Reserve which Trump calls the Deep State is beyond American politics and political parties and controls the vastest wealth on the planet is on purpose crashing the market and Bitcoin to derail Trump and destroy the U.S. and world economies.

Today has a nostalgic feel, and only you can say what that means for you. The 6 of Cups brings up the past in different ways, and very often it is a childhood memory which can trigger this nostalgic feeling. Our card today is from the Ancestral Path Tarot and it very clearly depicts that generational theme which we were discussing the other day. To be able to speak with someone who can recount memories from long ago is truly a blessing.
Today, take a moment at least, to take time out to stop and smell the roses. Take a walk down Memory Lane, and think of the positive memories of which you have not thought in a while. This can happen through conversations with others, or even by going through old photo albums. If the weather is bad, and you find yourself stuck indoors, today is a good day…
