How Daylight Saving Time Can Mess With Your Horoscope Like it or not, daylight saving time is coming for us (well, most of us) this weekend. The official reason for DST is to adjust the time in a way that makes the most of our daylight hours, but most people prefer to focus on the inconveniences that come with the initial onset of DST. We lose an hour of sleep, our internal clocks are thrown off, and we're just in a general fog for the first few days of the new schedule. And for anyone born around the time that DST takes affect (which will be at 2:00 a.m. on March 12 this year), springing forward can even throw off your astrological identity. Astrologers determine your sun, moon, and ascendant signs (the three main astrological signs in Western astrology) by drawing up your birth chart, which is basically a snapshot of the celestial bodies' placement in the sky at the moment you were born. In order to create an accurate chart, they need to know where you born and

Why astrology is making a comeback Admittedly, I never paid much serious attention to astrology when I was younger. I knew it existed, of course, and I knew my mum would speak of her latest horoscope in hushed tones to her friends at the hairdresser. I certainly knew of the kind of reputation it had to non-believers.  Thought of by most as a sort of pseudo-science or pop psychology/spirituality, I assumed astrology had nothing to offer me. Astrology is loosely defined as a form of stargazing. Based on the positioning of planets, predictions are made about how individuals will behave and interact at a given time. You know, horoscopes and star signs and those intimidating sounding "retrogrades" that everyone seems to talk about. However, at that point in my life I had no idea how frightening being an adult in an uncaring world would be, and how freeing it could be to rely on an alternative framework of questioning, analysing and rationalising. Beyond checking our h

This week’s astrology could have everyone feeling a little bit on edge. Check out your sign to find out the best way to get through it! by The Mystical Sister We start off on a moody and emotional note this week with the Moon in Cancer from  Monday  through  Wednesday . This gives us an opportunity for self-care and self-love, especially around water! Bath time, anyone? The Moon roars into Leo  Wednesday  late afternoon and stay there until  Thursday  evening, allowing us to snap out of our sensitive self-care mode and back into getting stuff done! Use the fire to have great conversations, or get inspired. The Moon moves into Virgo  Thursday  evening until  Sunday  morning, prompting us to be analytical and picky. Work the energy by grounding yourself, perhaps doing some movement to get into your body, and eating hyper-nourishing foods. The moon moves into Libra  Sunday , where we begin to prep for the full Moon energies next  Monday . Whatever will be happening for you  o

Numerology is a popular concept and is being used by a lot of people in determining their luck for the year. It is also used to tell which lucky numbers to wait for are. Even if you don't believe in numerology very much, it would not hurt to read on especially that we have only started a new year. Who knows? You might be able to realize what good your number will bring you. Here are the different numerology numbers and what is in store for them this 2013. 1. Lucky number 1. Watch out for the issues in your professional and personal life this year. You might see a new job opportunity or a new opening as the year ushers in. Nevertheless, the first few days and weeks will be a good start so think about the decisions you have to make very well. As for your personal life, some issues will arise that concern a forced relationship. Though some things have not been resolved in the past year, this year may bring a close to those. 2. Lucky number 2. Your family is of greatest matter

When you click on the label 'football' you find a few posts in which I try to 'predict' the results of a match or game by using the MC of the final moment to see if there is a 'hit' with the coach's natal chart. I also use the transits and progressions of the coach. I wanted to try it on the Super Bowl of February 3, 2013. It is a special match, because the two coaches are brothers ( John and Jim Harbaugh ). SUPER BOWL CHART? I thought it would be very interesting to see who wins and to see how the charts of the brothers are reflecting this. The problem with the chart of the SuperBowl is, however, that there is no indication for the eact time of the end of the match! The average SuperBowl lasts for about 3,5 hours, but it could be more (or less), depending on the length of shows and commercials. That makes it hard for to use my method. But I still want to have a look at the charts of the brothers. THE HARBAUGH SYNASTRY The sun signs of the brot

This year may be more exciting especially for those who are looking for love as 2013 is known to be the year of the Lovers. If you add up 2013, 2+0+1+3, you will arrive at 6, which is also the Lovers card in the Major Arcana. If you want to find out your tarot card for 2013 , first choose a tarot deck that you are most comfortable working with and then separate all 22 Major Arcana cards leaving aside the 56 other cards. Now, you have to sit in the most comfortable and effective way for you to begin the tarot reading, then, shuffle the 22 cards which you have separated. While shuffling it, ask that you be guided towards working effectively with your tarot. Wait for that moment when you feel peaceful within. When you feel so, draw a card. The card that you get is the archetype that will be guiding you through the course of 2013. Take note of the intuitive response you have with the card. This may not necessarily mean that mini-heart attack reaction you have. It may just be some

Tarot card reading is growing to be more popular these days especially that more and more people are beginning to believe the help and enlightenment they can provide to people who seek to know a bit about what to expect in their lives. Though the tarot cards have different images which are attractive and indeed colorful, fact remains that many of us do not have the least inclination to its meanings especially for those who have no background on tarot card reading. However, for those who are considering getting a reading, you have to understand that each tarot card has a special meaning that needs to be interpreted by a practitioner of tarot reading . Among these cards is the Wheel of Fortune. It is a highly symbolic card wherein different figures are combined to make it. On the upper left corner is Aquarius and the eagle is Scorpio. Furthermore, the lion is Leo while the bull is Taurus. The four are the signs of the Zodiac which have wings that signify stability in the middle of
