What sign are you?  Which signs are you most compatible with?  Are you really who the Zodiac says you are….personality, character, mind, body and soul????  Let’s talk about it!

Since ancient ages people have tried to guess what awaits them, watching the night sky. There they have found different relationships between stars and their arrangement. Today we rely on the zodiac and its twelve signs to see what awaits us in the future. In today’s world, we regularly read our horoscope, whether it is daily, weekly, monthly, related to love or to work.

The zodiac, which actually represents the path of life, consists of twelve equal-sized thirty degree sectors, which begin and end with the spring equinoctial point. These are the twelve zodiac signs. Most of them are named after animals, as the constellations, which are named like the animal.

Here are the twelve zodiac signs: Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces.

from the book your soul is writing about you”

Quote by Marsha Norman

Description:

Do you remember your dreams?  If not, you should! 

• Your dreaming mind has access to vital information that is not readily available to you when you are awake. Your dreams serve as a window to your subconscious and reveal your secret desires and feelings.
•  In remembering your dreams, you gain increased knowledge, self-awareness and self-healing.  Dreams are an extension of how you perceive yourself. They may be a source of inspiration, wisdom, joy, imagination and overall improved psychological health.
• Learning to recall your dreams help you become a more assertive, confident and stronger person.  By remembering your dreams, you are expressing and confronting your feelings.   
• Dreams help guide you through difficult decisions, relationship issues, health concerns, career questions or any life struggle you may be experiencing.
• Remembering your dreams help you come to terms with stressful aspects of your lives.
•  You will learn more about yourself, your aspirations, and your desires through your dreams
