I think if everyone knew the validity and amazing information given by astrology, more people would make better choices of a mate. If you knew, before you got too close and involved with someone, that astrology could offer you some insider information as to whether this person was a good match for you wouldn’t you use it?

Internet Dating
Many people are listed with internet dating services, which are a great way to enlarge your scope of possibilities. The next best thing to do now is to use astrology to weed out the Mr. or Ms. Wrong and find Mr. or Ms. Right. All you need to do is get their birth information and you have the means to discern those who are compatible with you from those who aren’t.

First thing to look for is his/her natal aspects which denote personal characteristics. Find out if there are personal characteristics that would be difficult to live with.

Astrological Indicators
And if you could look ahead to see what a serious relationship with a particular person would hold for you, wouldn’t you? There are astrological indicators to look for that would indicate if someone is really compatible with you. There are interaspects to look for that show you someone who you are sexually compatible with, and aspects that show you someone you could have good communication with. There are also aspects to look for that denote that a particular relationship has a strong possibility for commitment and marriage. These are with the Sun and the Moon, Sun/Moon Midpoint, Part of Marriage, and Chiron. There is much information to find from just cross referencing your natal planetary positions.

Composite Chart
Then there is the composite chart that reveals what type of emotional atmosphere and areas of compatibility that will be brought out once your relationship becomes a committed one. There is a lot of great information in this type of chart concerning long term possibilities. Really difficult aspects in a composite chart will definitely point out a relationship that does or doesn’t have long term potential. Especially hard aspects from Saturn and Pluto to the personal planets. These will bring out issues around control, limitations, restrictions, dissatisfaction, and power struggles.

There are also astrological indicators that point to a possible soul mate. Also, indicators of a relationship that could end badly. If you could catch these indicators before you became too involved wouldn’t you? The asteroid that points to these two possibilities is Chiron. Chiron is the planet of marriage, family, and your soulmate. Aspects made to Chiron from the other person’s planets will reveal some of these important questions. Look for harmonious aspects from Venus for a marriage partner. Look for challenging aspects from Saturn to reveal a heart-breaker.

Each planet has a particular vibration. Aspects, which are mathmetical angles, create either a harmonious vibration or a stressful vibration. You can find these angles between two people, and this vibration relates to compatibility. Harmonious angles will create a harmonious atmosphere, provide areas of a relationship that runs smoothly. Challenging or hard angles will create stress and challenges within a relationship. Every relationship has a combination of both, but to have a chance a the best possible relationship you should have more harmonious aspects than challenging ones.

To find the person who is the best possible match for you there are particular aspects to look for, including the Sun and Moon, Venus and Mars, the Sun/Moon Midpoint, Part of Marriage, and aspects involving Chiron. Find the person who fulfills these requirements and has the most harmonious aspects with you and you have quite possibly found Mr. or Ms. Right !

There are two times that people put the most effort into a relationship–at the beginning, and at the end. At the beginning, we want so much to spend time together that we will make time to do whatever it takes. At the end of a relationship, we spend a lot of effort just to keep ourselves together while our relationship is falling apart. Many people learn too late that the most important time to work on a relationship is . . . every day. Because, while choosing a good partner is essential, just committing to someone does not ensure years of happiness.

To continue to reap the rewards of a great relationship, there is a continual amount of work that must be done. Just as a farmer cannot sow his seeds and sit back until they mature, so it is that we cannot expect an initial commitment to carry us to a great relationship.

Here are 10 Ways to Keep Your Relationship Healthy:

Way 1. Give and take–Couples who have been married 50 years or more say that the number one reason their marriages have survived is “give and take.” There are times that our needs must be met, but there are also times when we need to sacrifice for the sake of our partner (and our relationship).

Way 2. Dating–Dating is not just for meeting people. It is the number one ingredient in keeping a marriage fun. The more children there are in a relationship, the greater the need for dating. Dating can be defined as doing something enjoyable with your partner, outside the home, without the kids. One time a week is minimal for most couples.

Way 3. Love is given–Love needs to be demonstrated in ways that are perceived as loving by our partner. Just to feel like we love our partner is not enough to keep their love tank full. For some, loving is receiving gifts or favors; for others physical touch or sex; and for others it is doing activities together. Just because we like something doesn’t mean our partner does. Love must be given in a way that it can be received.

Way 4. Trust is earned–Without trust there can be no intimacy in a relationship. Trust, unlike love, is not given but can only be earned. We earn our partner’s trust by following through on our commitments and consistently behaving in a way that is good for our relationship.

Way 5. Communicate honestly–Lack of honest communication indicates lack of trust or insecurity. Either is detrimental to a relationship. To be honest with each other means that there must be a freedom to express ideas that your partner does not like and does not have to like. When we agree that listening does not necessitate agreement, it is easier to be open and honest with each other.

Way 6. Use the power of visualization–We can only achieve what we can conceive. The way you think about your partner and your future together will impact the way you feel and behave toward each other. Negative images must lead to corrective action or be replaced with positive ones. Positive thinking about your partner puts a gleam in your eye which is apparent to your partner.

Way 7. Make your needs known–Eliminate all complaining by changing your complaints to requests. Requests risk rejection, but complaints guarantee it. Do you really want your spouse to stop watching TV or are you really wanting your spouse to sit and talk with you? Ask your spouse to sit and talk with you rather than complaining about his or her TV viewing.

Way 8. Agree–Rather than listening for the part of what your partner is saying that you disagree with and then debating about it, listen for what your partner is saying that you agree with. Sometimes partners feel like you are looking for something to pick at because you only comment when you disagree. Frequent agreement will make the disagreements more tolerable.

Way 9. Go the extra step–The little bit extra that we do for any job or relationship makes all the difference both in early dating and in maintaining the relationship. Make your spouse’s lunch? Include a little love note. Greet your spouse with a kiss? Kiss his or her neck too. Whatever you do, think about how you can add just a little more to make it special.

Way 10. Make a relationship plan–Living from day to day without any goals for the future leads to routine, stagnation, boredom, or burnout. When you and your partner are working on goals together, you share something that the rest of the world doesn’t have. And that creates a special world for the two of you.

Just as it’s easier to change your car oil than to replace the transmission, so it is easier to work on your relationship before problems occur. Being in love has never been enough to maintain a long term relationship. Doing what it takes to have a good long term relationship, however, will increase your feelings of love. Working one on one with a relationship coach will give you more specific ways to address issues important to your relationship. Success can happen if you make it happen.

A relationship is basically a desire and an agreement of two people to spend time together, have nice nights together and generally have a life together.

So in order to understand if a couple in a relationship indeed has a high level of compatibility, it is enough to talk about how both of partners see their common time together for the span of the relationship, let’s say a month, or a year or even more.

For example, David dates Luise and if this couple is compatible they would surely think of going to the films together which they both like, plan for vacations in places both would like to go, later, probably, plan to move and live together in a city and an area which both like or think suitable.

Do you see how it works? They talk about things they both agree and have plans to do things they both agree and dream of places and events they both agree are enjoyable and worthwhile.

So, in order to test your couple compatibility, all you have to do is to talk, I mean, really communicate about how would you see your time together in a week, a month, spending the nearest or even more far away holidays and if you are a daring couple, you might talk about a year or two ahead. You would talk about your life together, cats and dogs, house, children and so on.

I want to stop in this specific article on three interesting subjects: house, pets and children. Because I believe a real serious and successful relationship comes eventually to these three questions: where would we live, which pet if ever would we have and how many children would we want to have.

Children
If you are not at the stage you would like to talk about children, it’s OK. Talk about pets now. I don’t compare children to pets, of course, but for younger people children might be way too serious a subject, while cats and dogs are certainly a funny and nice thing to discuss.

House
What about house? Even if you still don’t live together or even don’t plan to, you can describe a house you dream of. How would it look like, how many stories, how many rooms, should it have a pool, a garden, and so on.

It is a great pleasure even just imagining a house of your dreams. And if you and your partner both agree on your dreams and can work out a house of your future as you both would like to have, you are certainly communicating and thinking on the same wave!

Pets
The same about pets – which pet would you like to have together. I know that when a pair wants to have a dog and both of partners admire and love dogs, that really gets them closer to each other and they have always what to talk about. The same, of course, applies to cat.

On the contrary if one just loves dogs and another hates them but would rather have a cat, it could be a subject for an argument or two, so try to solve this compatibility issue before it becomes a problem.

And the last one here are the children if you have a mature enough relationship to come to the subject. You, of course, can talk about how many children would you like to have together and when.

These are some great tests which you can run to test compatibility, but if you would like more insight you may want to consider speaking with an intuitive psychic relationship expert, who can help you determine if you are with Mr. Right or Mr. Wrong! Click the sponsored link to learn more.

It generally comes down to you to make your mind on the kind of actions you want to take so that you can avoid or make a confirmation of any issue, from dating to finance, that is related to your query.

The psychics lacks the ability to make use of the abilities that they have to affect anybody, from bringing back that lost love or dating relationship that is long gone, or sinister, put a spell or a curse on anybody.

A true psychic will in no certain terms can connect with that energy that you have to be able to read the things that might happen in the days and years to come. The problem is that there are usually so many fake psychics in the world who are always claiming that they are able to cast hexes, bringing back the lost love or be able to bring any effect to different people.

The most important aspect of successful online dating is the profile you post for online dating personals. Yet many times, profiles are written quickly to get a description up online, and without thought about what makes someone more attractive online.

TIP 1: Stand Out From The Crowd
When you’re writing your dating personals ads online, make your profile stand out. You’ll get better responses, from people who learn more about you from your profile and share your interests. And in comparison to the others posting their profiles, yours will stand out as being more thoughtful, and more complete.

TIP 2: Research The Competition
Take a look at other profiles to get an idea of what doesn’t work! Do you skim a number of online profiles because they don’t seem gripping? Without enough detail, profiles start to all sound the same. Take time to put some detail into your own online profile. Speaking with several friends who are single, I’ve found that they like to know what books someone likes, find out the types of movies people enjoy, hear about their spiritual preferences plus see someone’s recreational likes to learn more about the person. This can help your profile to stand out since many people will skip those sections or put in only a word or two due to rushing.

TIP 3: Choose a Unique Username
Another way to stand out is to make your online identity clear right form the start with your user name. When you choose your username for your profile you can of course use a variation of your own name. Or, instead you can combine words to create a name that illustrates your interests such as kayaklover or jazziscool etc. They get an idea right up front of what is most important to you.

TIP 4: Detail Your Interests
Be sure to add detail when describing your main interests, not just listing them. Many people state that they love sunsets, bicycling, nature and eating out so if you do mention this you should expand on these and mention additional interests in order to differentiate yourself. This way you will make yourself more unique. If you are open to different spiritual traditions then it’s good to list them all as this also can widen the responses you’ll receive. The same holds true for the categories of interests and exercise that many online dating sites include. Go through the lists and be sure to put down things that apply to you, even if they are not main interests of yours. For example, even if you aren’t into astrology, put down your sign as some people like to use that as an indicator as well.

TIP 5: Be Positive!
People like to read about what someone’s learned from past relationships so writing about one’s compassion, acceptance and other qualities can go along way. While you don’t want to drag out your description of the past relationship gone bad, showing that you are someone who can learn from mistakes and change for the better is always attractive. No one wants to meet someone with a lot of bitterness, anger and heavy baggage, so be sure not to make your profile focus on negatives. Use positive words and images. If you are still feeling a lot of unresolved issues from the past, posting it all in your online profile is not the way to deal with it; go find a good counselor and tell them about it, not your prospective online dating match!

TIP 6: Log In Regularly
On many of the dating sites, try to log in frequently, because by logging in fairly regularly your profile can more easily move closer to the top because the site order for profiles is based on the activity date. Some sites allow you to send a wink or smile at someone. However, in asking online dating service members about this, many said they would rather get an e-mail instead of a wink as it helps them to get to know the person a bit more and has much more of a personal touch. It’s just too easy to send a wink to someone, and can look as if you are just going through a long list of members and sending winks to everyone on the list. There’s nothing personal about it, so avoid it, and be more thoughtful.

Have a great time out with your new date!

Choosing the person you are going to spend the rest of your life with is the biggest decision you are ever going to make.

Using astrology and the personality profiles that are assigned to each individual sign, you can gain remarkable insight into the future of your relationship. While it is not foolproof, those that choose to believe in it do so with religious zeal.

Here are a few tips to looking into the signs of yourself and your partner and seeing what is in the stars.

Tip 1: Know your tendencies and know the tendencies of your partner. While this may sound like common sense, there many be significant parts of the personality of your partner that you have not come into contact yet, even if your relationship has been going on for months.

One quick look at a personality break down of his sign can tell you if he is a commitment-phobe, if he will be good with kids, if he is hot-tempered or if he wants to settle down.

While not carved in stone, these personality profiles can give you great insight into likely behaviour patters that can develop over time.

Tip 2: Know your ruling planet. Every sign of the zodiac has a ruling planet. Some of these planets are compatible and some are not.

Sometimes, if you date someone of the same sign, like Sagittarius, which is ruled by Jupiter, the match is positive. With Aries, which is ruled by Mars, may not be such a good match. A planet ruling on your sign can have significant impact on personality, moods, likes and dislikes and likely personality trends. Knowing before hand if your planets are compatible can save you lots of time an emotional investment.

Tip 3: Know if your partner is an Earth, Water, Fire or Air sign. Obviously, you want to go after a match here. Sags are fire signs, while Scorpio are water signs. Not a good match. Two fire signs, on the other hand, can be a great match.

You tend to have a hot, steamy and intense relationship that, if managed correctly, can last for a long time. Water signs like Pisces are bendable and agreeable, while Earth signs may not be. Take a good, hard look at what your sign is before you exchange vows.

Tip 4: Know if your sign is mutable, cardinal or fixed. Each sign is assigned one of these attributes, and astrologists believe that you will have a better love match if you can match your sign. The cardinal signs are Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn.

Fixed signs are Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius. The mutable signs are Sagittarius, Gemini, Vertigo and Pieces. Cardinal signs are known for their enterprising nature, while fixed signs are famous for their stability. Mutable signs offer adaptability. While mixing of these signs is considered a negative, a relationship can still succeed if you have enough other things in common.

Tip 5: Know your strengths and weaknesses. Each sign has positives and negatives, a ying and a yang. If you have fallen in love with someone and every bit of research you have done in astrology says that the relationship is going to be a failure, do not despair. Every sign has strengths that can be played to and pitfalls that can be avoided.

It all depends on how much work you are willing to put into it and how close you hope to get to each other. Sometimes determination is the strongest sign out there.

Tip 6: Look for adaptability in the sign. As stated above, some signs have excellent adaptability, while others do not. Leos, for instance, are notorious for demanding their way or the highway. If you are determined to have a relationship work, you might be wasting your time if the sign of your partner is not adaptable. Also, study your partner traits and see if you are willing to adapt to their personality traits.

It is good to be choosy since a relationship is such a big decision, do not be afraid to keep looking until you find that perfect zodiac match.

Tip 7: Trust your gut. Finally, use a little common sense. The zodiac can only tell you so much about your partner. If you are having trouble, and you check your compatibility and you see that things do not bode well for the future, than you might want to just end it. On the other hand, if you are having problems and things look good astrologically, than you might want to give it another chance.

The best advice is to trust your gut and check the stars and see if they align. They will be the best indicator on the future of your relationship.

Choosing that soul mate can be a difficult and depressing process. But by using the stars, and a bit of common sense, you can almost see the future of your partnership!

Finding a meaning in pain, suffering or anger is a difficult task. Often we feel these emotions because something did not go the way we thought it was supposed to go. Once you learn to uncover a way of finding meaning in the things that don’t seem right, you are on the way to learning the art of happiness.

What is happiness? When do we say we feel happy? From a book entitled The Art of Happiness, the author talks about the insights of the Dalai Lama, who is the spiritual and temporal leader of Tibet. The Dalai Llama is a popular speaker and a Nobel prize winner who has found a way to both experience continual happiness and to spread the true meaning of happiness to others so they can learn this practice as well. He teaches that happiness is the ultimate purpose of life and that the motion of life is always moving towards happiness. Some people place numerous obstacles in front of themselves for happiness and thereby prevent themselves from experiencing this purely inner emotion of which they are the only true source. Others, like the Dalai Llama have learned how to access this energy in a constant way so that there are no conditions whatsoever for experiencing happiness. The book serves as an inspiration to many people through the stories, meditations and conversations it presents. It shows us how to defeat anxiety, anger, insecurity and hopelessness and to find inner peace instead.

Many of us live a very fast-paced lifestyle. We want instant results for our efforts and we expect instant success or we get bored. We want visual evidence, data and we throw up shallow excuses for why we refuse to pursue our own inner source of happiness. We may think it is too hard or we don’t have the time. We tend to see the cover, not the content of things. We hear the loud voice but not the heartbeat. We look at the clouds and not the sky. We see only want we want and refuse to look deeper inside ourselves.

In human experience, many people have said that life is like a wheel. You may now be experiencing your lowest point but later on, you’ll get to the top. There a way to turn this wheel on its side however and see it from another angle. You don’t have to go spinning around and around forever. You can make all sides of the wheel face to the top all the time but this accomplishment depends on you. If you want it, then you will find a way to do it.

From the same book, people are taught that the sole source of happiness is from the spiritual state of a person. Eliminating unnecessary material things and living a very simple life with a decent job makes a person focus more on his or her spirituality. From there, you will learn the purpose of life through human compassion and you will learn how to face suffering and transform it into something more meaningful. You will learn to overcome the obstacles in life such as dealing with and avoiding hatred, anger and grief. You will build self-esteem and above all, you will learn the basic spiritual values of life. These values will awaken your senses to the holy truth that constant happiness is the real purpose of life.

Happiness, even if it can be found in a secret place within the dark and long tunnel of your inner self, is something that exists in all of our spirits. It does not have to be experienced visually or through any of the senses. Still, it will be experienced on the spiritual level like the way that the sun pierces through the clouds that hinder our vision of the true universe. Bad emotions must be dealt with first to see the true meaning of happiness that lies behind them. When you do this, you will understand the true essence and the art of happiness.

Running a Yoga studio gives me a great deal of insight into the benefits of group yoga practice. From these observations, I have compiled below the top 5 benefits I see from doing group yoga Practice. This is by no means disparaging a home practice. I am, as everyone knows, a huge fan of having a daily personal practice. In fact, for serious practitioners a daily home meditation and yoga practice is a must. In this article I am simply pointing out the best of what I find in doing a group yoga practice.

BENEFIT 1: ENERGY!!

Without a doubt a group kundalini yoga class a has different level of Energy. It is palpable and easily noticeable. This energy serves to uplift and inspire all that are participating. This is most common feedback I get from students after a class. This energy not only helps all the yogis during the class, but, persists even after the class to keep your level of being raised. In fact, there are some classes where this energy is so high and so good that afterwards I can feel the after glow that it creates in everyone present. It is quite common that you enter the class feeling lethargic and down and leave the class fully charged and vitalized.

Interestingly, recently after a Gentle Yoga and Meditation class, a new student approached me and confessed that during the period of meditation, which we do after finishing our Kundalini Yoga practice, he saw fields of blue energy approaching him from all directions. If you have not participated in a group Kundalini Yoga class, I suggest you find one in your area and get ready for a memorable experience.

BENEFIT 2: More Consistency & Intensity

As I have said many times, one of the hardest things about a yoga and meditation practice is consistency. Many people know the well documented benefits of these giants of spiritual sciences, but, still not a significant percentage establish a strong regular practice. This is where group yoga practice can be especially helpful. Just get yourself to class. That’s all. Don’t allow the mind to deter you with its endless excuses.

The mind and body are probably going to resist your practice, because they are loosing their grip over you as a consequence of it. By practicing Yoga and Meditation you are allowing your spirit to emerge, which will then govern your life and usurp the strangle hold that the mind and body have been asserting on you. So just make it to class. Once you are there, you will be surprised how much you will be able to do. In a class atmosphere you will not only do your practice, but, you will do it with greater intensity. This will go a long way in helping you integrate yoga and meditation into your lifestyle and helping you to create a consistent deep daily spiritual practice.

BENEFIT 3: Learn from Each Other’s Experiences

After each Kundalini Yoga & Meditation class we have a question answer period. During this time students get to ask and discuss common issues and problems they are running into. In addition to this, the students also often discuss amongst themselves their experiences and thoughts on Kundalini Yoga, Meditation, Living a spiritual life etc. This is a great way to make progress on the spiritual path. One can learn much from the knowledge another has acquired and a group class really facilitates this.

BENEFIT 4: Share Resources

Music, books, DVDs etc. are all valuable components for your yoga and meditation practice and practicing in a group allows you share these resources with each other. Give, give and then give some more. That should be your attitude in life and you tend to find more of that in those who have discovered their spiritual dimension. Thus, I find a group yoga class a great collection of fantastic people always willing to give and share their resources with others.

BENEFIT 5: Make Friends With Like Minded People

Yoga and meditation practice not only give you great benefits, but, in exchange require that you live up to a higher standard. This often means making changes to your social life and people you associate it. It all happens quite naturally actually. In the extreme case it can even lead to changes to your life partner or just changes to your friends and acquaintances.

What a group yoga class provides is an opportunity to befriend and share your life with those who are living at a similar wave length as you. Generally, you and your fellow yogis will have a similar high value system and will gravitate towards wholesome, holistic living. These important commonalities often lay down the foundation for great friendships to emerge.

Recently reported by tvnz.co.nz/national-news, a grieving family turn to psychic for help. The New Zealand family torn apart by the death of their daughter has turned to medium Kelvin Cruickshank for help.

On December 4 last year, 20-year-old Samantha Henderson was killed after her defacto partner Justin Goldstone pointed a loaded, sawn-off shotgun at her face as he posed for photographs.

Twenty-one-year-old Goldstone was sentenced to three years and four months in prison for her manslaughter.

Goldstone has remained tight lipped on the events of that fateful night and so the family turned to Cruickshank in order to gain some closure. They are grappling with the fact Samantha could die at the hands of her partner and say some of the facts do not add up.

“All along I’ve struggled with how someone could be that stupid to have a loaded gun and point it at someone then physically pull the trigger,” says Samantha’s father, Dave.

They picked Cruickshank to help, as Samantha’s mother, Rachel, says out of the psychics they have seen “he was the one that was always so bang on”.

When Cruickshank made contact with Samantha’s spirit she sent a happy birthday message through Cruickshank to her mum. But it was her use of a nickname no-one outside of their family knows that turned Dave from a sceptic into a believer.

She bought the name “Pixie” in, which Rachel says is a name Samantha and Dave used to call her because of her ears.

“There was only Sam and Dave that knew that, so there was no way that he could have known that,” Rachel says.

This gave them confidence to believe the other information Cruickshank gave them about the day Samantha died.

Cruickshank said he got the feeling through Samantha’s spirit that Goldstone was on drugs at the time.

“He’s on something, there’s got to be some sort of reference to him being stoned or wasted or whatever and he snaps just like an owner of a dog to an animal. I can tell you he was high, high as a kite,” Cruickshank said.

Goldstone refused a toxicology test.

Dave said the reference to drugs made sense to him and actually gave him a little bit of peace of mind.

Cruickshank also said Samantha told him “with intent”.

However, there was never any evidence of intent, which is why Goldstone was charged with manslaughter, not murder.

Cruickshank said Samantha let him know she did not suffer, which Rachel said is the best she could hope for.

Samantha also expressed that she wants her daughter Hope to be with her parents.

As for those who say the family are silly for believing Cruickshank, Rachel says she does not care.

“I didn’t do this for everybody else or for anyone else to have an opinion.

“I did this for me and for Dave and for our kids, just to give us a sense of peace,” says Rachel.

The medium Kelvin Cruickshank was born in a small town on New Zealand’s North Island, and claims that from an early age he was aware of his psychic abilities because he could see people that other children could not. When he reached adulthood the visitors became harder to ignore and Kelvin realized that these visitors had messages which were meant to be delivered to others.
