Aquarius July 16 -23
By Stephanie Azaria
Your connection with your higher Self is front and center this week, with Mars triggering a new connection with Source and setting off a very deep emotional response in you when he opposes your ruler Uranus on Wednesday. Be prepared to go very deeply to the core of your being, so that your emotional Self can open up as it is meant to now. There is not getting anywhere without...

Sphinx Spiritual - Day 5
Spiritual growth and your needs
Spiritual growth is the ongoing understanding and application to your life of spiritual concepts.
People on earth form a belief as to what their needs are, which is normally based on cultural or historical values. Moreover people are usually given a picture to them of what a successful life means based upon these earthly issues.
People’s needs often relate...

Trust is to accept the validity of the wisdom of another or yourself and the application to your journey even though the application isn’t always clear.

Sphinx Spiritual - Day 4
Unity and Trust
The world is comprised of people, all of whom are in some way different. Each would like different things and each will respond to different stimuli in their life.
Unity is the coming together of a group of people who by definition are different, but who share a number of values and agree to operate in their life under shared guidelines and principles.
This allows for...

Children are taught to be sceptical of prophetic statements made by people who are poor and to more easily to...

Achievement and Recognition
From birth each person is taught how important it is to others for them to achieve; for example, a parent wants their child to achieve so as to make a parent feel good.

Sphinx Spiritual - Day 1
Self reliance spiritually is very personal. It gets to the point of only accepting judgement on yourself, from yourself and to find an inner peace and calm in what you are endeavoring to achieve.

Caitlin Moran - How To Be a Woman
The relief of taking off a bad bra is immeasurable. It's like a combination of putting your feet up, going to the toilet, a drink of cold water on a hot day, and sitting on the steps of a caravan having a fag. Bad bra removal is a measure of your friendships. If you would feel comfortable in going round to someone's house at the end of the day, and saying, "I'm just going to take my bra off," you know you are intimate friends."

I think it was seeing the squashed pretty green colour. In my guilt I hit the google machine to find what the spiritual meaning of a grasshopper means…and what I killed.
A green grasshopper symbolizes new beginnings, growth and youth and...
