24 Things Women Over 30 Should Wear

warningcurvesahead's avatarWarning:Curves Ahead

This morning, as I was perusing through my Facebook timeline, I happened upon an article that a lovely friend shared. It was entitled “24 Things Women Should Stop Wearing After Age 30”, and it triggered Maximum Eye-Rolling from everyone who took the time out to read it.

Written by Kallie Provencher for RantChic.com, this “article” (I use the term loosely) highlighted things such as “leopard print”, “graphic tees”, and “short dresses” (because “By this age, women should know it’s always better to leave something to the imagination”). Kallie, it seems, has a number of opinions on what women over 30 should and shouldn’t be doing, having also penned “30 Things Women Over 30 Shouldn’t Own” and “20 Pictures Women Over 30 Need To Stop Posting Online”. (What is this magical post-30 land where women are suddenly not allowed to do or own so many things?!)

Motivated by Kallie’s “article”, I decided…

Sun conjuct Venus in (tropical) Gemini calls out the intellectual and artistic side of the nature, making the person fond of music, art and poetry. It also strengthens the love-nature, but this Air Element makes emotions unstable, sometimes it leads to extravagance or intemperance. Moreover, it increases the popularity and make social intercourse smooth so that the person finds many friends.

Reiki — Proficiency In What You Know

cell-human

One thing that most energyworkers fail to grasp the significance of is the importance of understanding (not just knowing) Human Anatomy and Physiology. Early in our training, our students get a healthy dose of this focus in class because … how do you know how to direct your Mana if you cannot visualize where you’re targeting? This is the key to assisting another to heal: an intimate understanding of what makes the human body tick. The ability to utilize this Understanding is also one of the hallmarks between a fly-by-night practitioner and a true professional Healer.

You see … to be truly competent, you must go beyond herbs, oils and crystals. You must study the body’s systems and DNA and the role of bioenergetics.

Here’s an image of a human cell … knowing how each component within the cell works (its systems) is called cell cytology. This is one to begin a new section of study in your notebooks.

“In broaching the possibility of being, in some way, against self-criticism, we have to imagine a world in which celebration is less suspect than criticism.”

Knowing Nothing ~ 5th Dimensional Consciousness

L'Aura Pleiadian's avatarThe New Divine Humanity

sacredblissandlove

Sitting here in Bliss, I am feeling how great it is to Literally know Nothing.  How joyous it is, to be free from the endless stories, free from the need to know anything, free from fears, free from anything, that is not the Glorious Presence of my Divine Being, now.

You too, can live consciously as your Divine Self.

Living in the Present Moment is the Freedom, that Lives as Joy and Bliss. EVERYTHING is magical, in the moment, when you live as your Divine self (consciously) when you live, as the Eternal You, in form.

Being Childlike, is Being present in the moment.

Life is Very Exciting, relaxed and PEACEFUL when experienced as the openness of the joyful Presence of the Moment. It is Rich, it is fulfilling. Breathe this deeply, now.  Feel this deeply, now.

In the Present Moment, there is freedom from the expectations of anything, which includes…

The Rub: Chef Robert Hesse and When Pigs Fly

CPM's avatarCook Plant Meditate

hesse boys wpfbbq

You have to have a good rub to start some good BBQ, and there’s some exciting news in the BBQ world! Two-time Hell’s Kitchen contestant and celebrity chef Robert Hesse is shedding his Executive Chef’s coat for a brand new one and starting a new venture – in BBQ. Chef gave CPM the rub.

Chef met up with the Zimmerman Brothers of the former ZeBro’s Harbor House in Westfield, NY and created a new restaurant – When Pigs Fly BBQ Pit. “I knew right away when I walked into ZeBro’s that it was time to make a change.” That change would be for Chef and for ZeBro’s.

ZeBro’s was a popular place at one time but became an identity lost in extensive zebra themed décor, prime rib, frog legs, and hot wings. Chef Hesse could see that the restaurant needed a lot of love and change. And Chef Hesse…

Jupiter Square Saturn 2016-05-26

Jupiter Square Saturn 2016-05-26

First, you might want to peek at our analysis of this aspect on March 23, 2016 and August 3, 2015.  The perfection of today’s square is the third in a three party sequence, and we will not see a similar pattern repeat until 2024 / 2025.

Before we address the regular patterns, we should note some remarkable fifth harmonic activity.  Two triangular patterns composed of fifth harmonic activity are present.  One is formed by Juno (in Scorpio; trust v. betrayal, wives, sisters, daughters) at the apex and Sun in Gemini on one leg and Chiron in Pisces on the other.  This Jupiter / Saturn square has this particularly powerful pattern in play.  Jupiter/Saturn aspects are associated with changes in the financial markets, and we note that issues of trust (Juno) have become important (if you do not know this, then you need to watch “

Tarot Contemplation – King of Wands

tarot_KingWands

The King is back around to check in with you yet again!   He’s boosting your confidence and ambition to do more at work and at play.  This King is ruled by Saggitarius, and we just enjoyed a beautiful Saggitarian Full Moon last Saturday.  Saggitarius is synonamous with the vibe of “I perceive”.  Your perceptions about the world and people around you reveal that you remain supported in your efforts and appreciated.  Progress feels good, doesn’t it?   Still toying with the notion of starting your own business, or some other entrepreneurial endeavor?  Perhaps the King will suggest an idea that will become a lucrative source of additional income.  If you receive the inspiration to head in that direction, do a little research and brainstorm the possibilities.  Going with the flow further expands your spiritual horizons.

Recipe:  Banh Mi Spring Rolls


Banh Mi typically refers to a Vietnamese sandwich of grilled pork or chicken, pickled veggies and fresh herbs. For this dish, I did a quick pickling of carrots and Daikon radish, added some chicken breast seasoned with Chinese five spice powder and added in some fresh cucumber and mint leaves as well. It’s all rolled together in a spring roll rice paper wrapper for a meal that’s light, refreshing and perfect for summer.

Forecast for the 2016 Sagittarius New Moon

Kathy Biehl's avatarAstro-Insight

May 21, 2016

2:14 PM PDT / 5:14 PM EDT / 9:14 PM GMT
1 Gemini 13 / 1 Sagittarius 13

by Kathy Biehl

This year’s Sagittarius Full Moon is a high-energy, high-octane blaze of hard-driving emotions. Even if we’ve been going with the flow lately (and what choice have we had, really?), reactions have been building up. A person can be philosophical only so long until feelings kick in. As they do now.

We’re in for profound feedback about beliefs and their ramifications. And, boy, is it ever motivating.

This Full Moon takes place on the axis of Gemini and Sagittarius, which connects our information flow (thoughts, communications, data streams) to the systems of thought we build from that flow.  Each end is enjoying heightened awareness, not to mention a nigh-on breathtaking surge in activity.

Two influences are encouraging this condition. One is energy zipping between the rulers of…

The Warriors of the Rainbow Prophecy | Ancient Origins

The Rainbow prophecy, as it has come to be known, refers to an ancient Native American prediction of a time when humanity is overcome by greed, corruption and violence, and the ‘Warriors of the Rainbow’ will return to restore peace. References to a new era, a Golden Age characterised by harmony, stability and prosperity, do not just belong to the Native Americans, but can be found in myths and legends from all over the world. Do you believe in the ancient prophecy?
