LEO

Yep, I am a LEO, I love the spotlight and leading people. I like attention. I am proud.....well to a point anyway. One of my best friend's who has been explaining astrology to me, and I find it fascinating. We looked up the moon phases at our birth, and I was born Aug 3, 1972 at the EXACT time of sunrise, making me like a 3rd degree Leo or maybe a 4th degree Im not positive , Ill explain more when I understand.

The moon was waning, or moving from full to new....growing dark again the day I was born. This means time for change, to change old patterns. My close friend on the other hand works as a wonderful spiritual advisor and psychic ( she is the most accurate psychic I've ever met) and she was born at the EXACT time of sunset, on a wanning moon, almost to the same degree as me. She was born July 3, and I, Aug 1. We have a close connection, that helps to explain our close freindship and communication.

What I'm trying to say is simple, astrology can be very simple or complicated depending on how you look at it, and it's not a proven science like chemistry, but it's INTERESTING. I write fantasy and paranormal novels, so this can add spice and connections between my characters.

JUST FYI INFO.........BLUE MOON.....

I also want to say the phrase "Once in a BLUE MOON"is an old pagan phrase. A true "BLUE MOON", only occurs every 3-5 years and it means there are 2 full moons within a lunar cycle. We have one in 2005, August I think it was. We have a BLUE MOON this JUNE.....June 1 and June 30 (fascinating its the very first and last day of the month), with the summer solstice or longest day of the year (sunlight) on June 21. This is traditionally known as the magickal day that the human world is able to fade or communicate and pass into the faery (or fairy) world.

Slainte Cairde!
