Lucky Numbers For Week of April 24, 2009

Lottery ads tell us you only need a dollar and a dream. But I think it is also helpful to have a list of lucky numbers to help spur the good fortune ... or fortunes.

So with that in mind, I decided that we could use some lucky numbers that can be used in any helpful way. I gazed into a pool of water, Nostradamus-like, and contemplated the cosmos. Then I mixed the tarot cards and allowed the spirits to guide me to the cards that represent the lucky numbers for this week. Nothing is guaranteed but who knows ....?

I choose eight numbers because 8 is the number of wealth.

Here are the lucky numbers for the week of April 24-30, 2009:

10, 12, 17, 48, 51, 59, 73, 76

There are many ways to delve into your own consciousness to find luck and intuition. Try reading Dream Power/Improve Your Luck (Super Strength Series) and see if your dreams give you any clues and premonitions.


Balloon Power

  Balloons

After the party is over, don't throw away those metallic party balloons. They could, in fact, be another source of solar-based electricity. Check out a company called Cool Earth Solar which has figured out that these balloons, which are made of metal-coated plastic, could replace the more costly polished metal traditionally used to concentrate sunlight on solar cells.

Even though the balloons need to be much larger than the party kind (about eight feet in diameter) if you coat only one half of the balloon, leaving the other transparent, the inner surface of the coated half will make for an inexpensive solar-energy collector. In fact, each balloon requires only about a kilogram of plastic and costs just $2 to make.

The downside of using balloons is that they last only about a year. But the folks at Cool Earth have figured out how to maximize efficiency by changing the air pressure within the balloon, and fine-tuning the sunlight's focus on the solar cell. Cool Earth says the balloons cost just "$1 per watt of generating capacity to install ... about the same as a large coal-fired power station."


Considering how much hot air there is around town nowadays, I am thinking of stocking up on these enlightening items.

For those who are interested in doing it themselves, here are a few Solar Energy kits and books to get you going.


Do It Yourself Spells: Connecting with a Lost Love

Whitecandle The concept of spells and putting spells on people is interesting and, I admit, somewhat compelling. It gives us the feeling that we can control the unknown and seemingly uncontrollable future. I think that there is a bit of chance in this life but there is also personal control and motivation that can help make the bumps smoother and the opportunities greater. Let's call it Mind Over Matter.

"Mind over Matter". We have heard that we can change our fortune and chances for success if we could only change our outlook and perception. This may be true for certain things. So why not use this handy little ritual to help you reconnect psychicly, spiritually or telepathically with a lost love or someone from your past who has meant something special to you.

1. Light a white candle. (Or if you are near a candle store, buy a male - if you are seeking to reconnect with a man - or female - if you want to connect to a woman - shaped candle)

2. Face the candle and briefly examine the flame.

3. Close your eyes and imagine the flame burning bright and strong.

4. Think of the person who you wish to connect to and say their name seven times.

5. Then imagine yourself talking to them again.

6. Make a wish that you will see or hear from them again soon.

7. Blow out the candle.

Check out the Pink Male Iconic Candle or the Female Green Human Figure Candle (CHFG) and see if any will work for you.


Excuses that are Intuitive

Excuse CareerBuilders.com launched a survey to find the most unique call-in-sick excuses. While I have made up a few whoppers in my day, I could not help but notice excuse number 7. I think I need to use that one next time....


1. I don't want to lose my parking space

2. I hit a turkey while riding a bike

3. I had a heart attack yesterday morning but I am all better now.

4. I donated too much blood.

5. My dog was stressed out after a family reunion.

6. I was kicked by a deer.

7. My psychic told me to stay home.

That will certainly work for me!

Horoscope for Week of April 20, 2009

Salvadordali The Sun enters Taurus this week and gets us moving and grooving. Plan to nibble in new pastures, run along with the bulls and enjoy the upcoming spring weather. Ready? Set? Go, go. go! To help you head off in the right direction read A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life's Purpose (Oprah's Book Club, Selection 61).
 
ARIES   (MARCH 21 - APRIL 20)
Don’t think that your best days are behind you, Ram. Far from it! This week, you find ways to leverage your assets and make them pay off in big dividends. The secret is to make carefully considered decisions and then take action. You find that you have the resources to shop till you drop. Hey, how much for that little trinket in the window? Oh why not just treat yourself.
 
(Salvador Dali had Sun in Taurus)
 
TAURUS   (APRIL 21 - MAY 21)
This a time of great opportunity and personal advancement. Bulls can turn on the charm with just about anyone and achieve maximum impact. Meet and greet and sway a few opinions in the schmoozing process. But limit your availability, lest you squander your limited and valuable time. Some blockheads are simply not worth the effort. You know who they are....
 
GEMINI   (MAY 22 - JUNE 21)
A light shines in your dark, box of secrets. So what are you waiting for? Pry it open and empty it out. Twins feel like a weight has been lifted off their shoulders when the gremlins fade in the light of day. Cart out the psychological baggage and burn it. You have nothing to fear but your old, out of date knick knacks. And we’ll attend to that later... 
 
CANCER   (JUNE 22 - JULY 23)
Zesty Crabs enjoy the company of good friends this week. Be a joiner and a co-joiner in various new groups and organizations. You never know who you can meet and who will figure prominently in your future plans. I hear the gardening club has an opening for a someone who likes to plant a few seeds. But watch where you stick that green thumb.
 
LEO   (JULY 24 - AUGUST 23)
The corporate superhighway almost seems manageable. Good. Now is the time to review your cruising speed. Lions must use this time to roll out their grand scale professional plans, or else become roadkill. Charisma and charm are turned on high and you can position yourself effectively with the powers that be. Remember us drones on your way up.
 
VIRGO   (AUGUST 24 - SEPTEMBER 23)
Sociable Virgins can relax a bit and enjoy seeking and exploring new vistas and valleys. This is a perfect time to plan a grand world tour or expand your overall knowledge through an interesting course of study. Elevate yourself. The sky is the limit. Don’t waste this energy just lounging around unless it’s in a student lounge to find a... ahem... study mate.
 
LIBRA   (SEPTEMBER 24 - OCTOBER 23)
Red hot Libras have their hearts and minds on the same goal; going for the sexual gusto. You’re insatiable now (and will find an appreciative audience). Blame the eternal flame on your innate charisma. No sooner do you step on the train than you disembark at the next friendly station. How far will you travel? It depends on how far you really want to go.
 
SCORPIO   (OCTOBER 24 - NOVEMBER 22)
Partners are on the top of your mind and at the bottom of your heart this week. This clarity helps you examine what you’re really seeking in a relationship. For those Scorps who are fishing for a catch, you may decide to commit or cut bait. For those who are hoping to hook someone special, it’s time to dip your net into the social pond.
 
SAGITTARIUS   (NOVEMBER 23 - DECEMBER 22)
All work and no play makes Archers rather pleased with themselves. Burn the midnight oil this week and get a few things accomplished on the job. For those with loftier goals, it may be possible to delegate most of the really onerous stuff to underlings. Then you can be freed up to rub elbows with those in-the-know. I said rub elbows..... ahem.
 
CAPRICORN   (DECEMBER 23 - JANUARY 20)
Fun loving Caps can make the most out of their week by applying some creative oil to any rusty idea. It is time to express a few of your wilder opinions to a willing crowd. At very worst, they’ll ignore you. At very best, it can catapult you up into a new level of respectability. Knowing you, if you’re really lucky, it will be a descent to a new low. How low can you get? Ah ha.
 
AQUARIUS   (JANUARY 21 - FEBRUARY 19)
How happy are you with your home life? This is the week to embrace it, change it or improve it. Aquarians tackle family issues that have become troublesome. You are more expressive, lucid and compelling. Call it as you see it, with sugar on top. There is no reason to live your life based on someone else’s prototype. Create a new you and then break the mold.
 
PISCES   (FEBRUARY 20 - MARCH 20)
Unleash your best ideas in a torrent and create a tidal wave. Then grab your surfboard and hang ten! Pisces harness their plans and express them loud and clear so everyone of note fully understands. Lend a hand to any good charitable cause and get involved globally. The possibilities are endless, if you don’t poop out. Comprendo compadre?
