New Moon in Leo

Entertain yourself...

Loud-out-loud hilarity! ...Our faces felt stretched out from laughing the entire time!

Mercury in Virgo

Think for results...

I love my friend Sherene. Not only is she a dynamic Scorpio lady that is also a fellow astrologiste (She co-writes the horoscopes for Elle UK and the must-have Surviving Saturn's Return... In fact, it was Sherene who way back in the day taught me all about the Saturn Return!), she's also a Jungian psychoanalyst and a belly dancer!

40 days is when the first signs of brain activity can be recorded!

...Anyway, I love when we hang out because it usually involves lots of paella, sangria, tarot cards, laughs and major epiphanies. (Yes, we both have a lot of Sagittarius in us too. She is a Sag rising and I have 4 planets in that winsome and wacky sign!)...Anywhoo, last night she was telling me about her latest endeavor, Project 40, where she puts something of her life on the "altar" in which she is seeking a resolution too. Then, for 40 days (which she chose due to its metaphysical essence), she has a set series of tasks in which helps her draw up the clarity she needs to teach her whatever she needs to get to, in regard to what she puts on the altar...Yup, sounded interesting to me and her results were astonishing... So, as it goes with Mercury in Virgo, a mind is a terrible thing to waste; so here I go on my 40-day altar...and for those who want to join me and Sherene on the journey, here is what you need to do:

Have something in your life you want to put "on the altar." This could be clarity on your life's purpose, relationship issues, money, etc. It could be anything...then every day keep a journal or start a tumblr account (like Sherene has) and do and record these tasks:

Confession: Come to terms with something big or small per day, just free yourself of something.
Oracle: Draw a tarot card per day or use something to be an oracle. This can be opening your favorite book and pointing to a passage or pressing shuffle on your ipod and having the song that pops up represent something. It can also be some sign that comes to you per day and acknowledging it. Every day will be different, as who knows where messages can come from!
Sacrifice: Big or small, give up a bad habit for a day.
Relinquish: Let go of something per day, again big or little--from throwing away a pair of jeans to cutting your hair.
Inspiration: Find something every day that inspires you -- Sherene chose my notebook cover as her inspiration for today!
Exercise: Work your body every day in some way.
Structure: Write down all the things you do every day.

Then, hopefully in 40 days you'll find what you are looking for...

Venus in Leo

Let fantasy take you away...

HOTNESS!!!

YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! Uruguay is the winner of the Copa America 2011!!!!!!!!! (Not a surprise after beating Argentina to go into the semifinals!!!!!)  ....AND OMG, they played the hottest game ever!!!!

Diego Forlán is pure hotness, savaging his reputation as the golden boy of the team by finally scoring a goal in the 42nd minute and then hauling ass and making the game insanely amazing by scoring a third point in the LAST MINUTE!!!! Yes, three generations of champion genes is in that boy!!!!! 

....and of course that Luis Suárez was on fire as always, as each of his goals were made in sheer perfection--especially that one he salvaged from Diego's attempt during the Peru match!!!!! I love a team that truly works together and can look so hot all the while.

...and boooo for the Paraguay goalie for winning best goalie of the tournament. Sure, glad the country finally won something, but Fernando Muslera kicked ass--and hello, Uruguay won the tournament! He made the win from Argentina possible--and those players are considered the top of the game!!! Plus, Fernando is HOTNESS PERSONIFIED! He reminds me of the cute Jai Rodriguez from Queer Eye, but a straight and super-buff-in-just-the-right-way version...

Anyway, waaah to the end of the Copa America, but BONSAI to Uruguay winning and putting themselves in #1 place for wins of the Copa America with a record 15!!!!!!! La Celeste is the best!!!!!!!!!!! They make watching soccer fun, even if you don't know any of the rules (like me)--because with so much hotness, who cares how it's played, as long as its got flair!

Now here is my slideshow of the hotness that is La Celeste:

In order of appearance:
Diego Forlán (Taurus, the consummate gentleman)
Fernando Muslera (Gemini, the playful spark of excitement)
Sebastian Coates (Libra, the gracious charmer)
Diego Lugano (Scorpio, the steadfast and mysterious enigma)
Luis Suárez (Aquarius, the electric and kinetic force of nature)
Martín Cáceres (Aries, the winsome warrior)

Uranus Retrograde 4.34

...and speaking of Uranus...

Of all asinine things I've been curious about, I've had a long curiosity about getting a colonic. Maybe because I’m a Scorpio, and it rules the excretory organs or maybe because I’m a sun and moon in the 6^th house, and have a fascination with health and a commitment to being a germaphobe…. Whatever the case, it just sounds smart…but of course, I’m vain, so I needed a bigger motive to get on it, and that came by way of a convo at a party, when talking to girl that worked at a colonic clinic, that told me people lose weight from it and she even had someone drop close to 20 lbs after their first visit! Holy shit!!!! With that, I was sold!

Uranus goes retrograde in Aries

Rethink your evolution.


Uranus, the planet of enlightenment, popped into Aries way back on March 11, 2011, a move that it only makes about every 7 years--and to a place it was last seen approximately 84 years ago!!!! 

Yes, when this planet goes into motion, time to listen up and reevaluate your priorities--meaning, time to get back in the saddle of your life and sort out what you are doing to make it all about you in the most honest way--as Aries will also dictate you to do!  

....So, as this Rx continues until December 9, 2011, time to consider all the new lessons that have happened since March 11 and where to go with it all, as in rethinking your evolution and your place in the world....

Aries (March 21-April 19): Who you are? Who you want to be?

Taurus (April 20- May 20): What do you want your life to mean? What does it mean?

Gemini (May 21- June 20): What your hopes and dreams, and how far are you from therm?

Cancer (June 21-July 22): How high do you want to rise socially, and where have you come from?

Leo (July 23- August 22): What is your truth? Are you living it now?

Virgo (August 23- September 22): What gives you your power? Are you fully embracing it?

Libra (September 23- October 22):  Who do you want on your team? Do they know what you ask of them?

Scorpio (October 23-November 21): What is your natural rhythm? Are you listening to it?

Sagittarius (November 22- December 21): Are you properly expressing yourself? Are you really listening to yourself?

Capricorn (December 22-January 19): What is yours and what is conditioning? How authentic are you being?

Aquarius (January 20-February 19): Are you still curious, and how are you still challenging yourself?

Pisces (February 20-March 20): What are your values, and are you living up to them?

Venus enters Cancer

Hold tighter to your fetishes.

Funny how time flies...It was about a year ago I realized I had a thing for soccer, getting all into The World Cup because it's like porn--and voila, today, during my break in-between holidays festivities, I realized the Copa America Argentina 2011 is on--and my favorite team is playing, Uruguay!!!!!!!!! Go Diego!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Usted tiene mi corazón!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

...and thank you youtube for livestreaming all the games!!!!

Me Gusta! Me Gusta!

Think dramatically, romantically, extravagantly or all of the above.
