Lucky Numbers for the Week of July 23, 2010

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, here are 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 July 23-29, 2010:

7, 11, 26, 29, 38, 44, 52, 77

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. Here's a guide to the best books available this month.

Astrology By the Glass - Leo

There are twelve of these "Astrology By the Glass" posts coming up over the next few months which describes each astrology sign's drinking habits and preferences. I found this in my file of favorite columns from various authors and sources. Unfortunately there is no byline and I have no idea who wrote this. So if you know who, please let me know and I will give full credit and a link. After reading this, check out The

Intoxicated Zodiac for recipes by sign. Cheers!

 

LEO (July 21 - August 20)

Drinking style: Leo likes to drink and dance -- they're often fabulous dancers, and usually pretty good drinkers as well, losing their commanding dignity and turning kittenish. Of course, they're quite aware they're darling -- Leos will be Leos, after all. They generally know their limit, probably because they loathe losing self-control. When they get over-refreshed, expect flirting to ensue -- and perhaps not with the one what brung them. But Leo's not the type to break rules even when drunk, so just try to ignore it (try harder, Cancer) and expect a sheepish (and hung over) Lion to make it up to you the next day.

Trademark cocktails: Leos like flashy drinks, be they complicated tropical concoctions festooned with umbrellas, like a Bahama mama or the more common strawberry daiquiri or mai tai. Indeed, they often have a taste for the fruity -- try a screwdriver, or add an extra cherry to the next Manhattan. Their sense of drama ends itself to a kir royale, of course.

Drinking buddies: Ben Affleck, Gillian Anderson, Bill Clinton, Monica Lewinsky, Jennifer Lopez, Madonna, Debra Messing, Kevin Spacey, Martha Stewart, Andy Warhol

Welcome the Astrology Sign of Leo

On July 23, 2010 the Sun enters the zodiac sign of Leo the Lion and welcomes a 32 day period of theatrics, pride, generousity and great love. Leos are the kings of the zodiac as well as the jungle and they just looove to have an adoring crowd around them to tell them how wonderful they are.   

(Napoleon had Sun in Leo)

Leo the Lion thinks they are always right so you might as well let them think that they are right. Arguing will not get you very far with them. Flattery will get you everywhere with them. They are generous to a fault. Nothing makes them happier than lavishing those they love with all sorts of gifts and treats. Needless to say, they have many friends and admirers and like to travel in a crowd. But they are also great lovers with great flair and grace.  And they are also very good at amking money since they are able to toot their own horn and remind the bosses how talented and important they are. They love children and just having fun. They can accomplish great things but will always need you there to remind them how great is great.

Famous folks with Sun in Leo are:

George Hamilton

Barack Obama

Madonna

Lucille Ball

Woody Harrelson

Coco Chanel

Astrology Land

Astrology Land is a new age site that is owned by Matrix Software. Matrix produces some of the best astrology and new age computer software available on the market. The Astrology Land area of their site is full of free readings including a reading of your Life Chakras, Numerology, I-Ching, Runes, Tarot and a Yes / No Oracle. There is also an electric almanac which can give you good times to plant, handle medical matters and even a phace of the moon calendar. It is a very handy one stop place for any pressing questions and issues.

Here is an example of the free Numerology reading using birth information. Is it accurate?  I am not so sure but you should try it for yourself to see if anything resonates.

The path of life or destiny number is derived from the date of your birth. This life path number is perhaps the single most important number for you and, like your birthday, cannot be changed but will stay with you throughout life. It is through this number and what it symbolizes that you will work out your own destiny. This is why it is called the number of destiny or life path number. For all practical purposes, this is YOUR number... the number of you.

Your life path is a "6". Organizational ability? You've got that. Also, a sense of responsibility that won't quit. A sense of the public and the world around you finds you aware of social and economic conditions and you have the insight and the stick-to-it-ness to respond to unwanted conditions and to do something about them. A married life is just what you've always wanted and still want. Until that takes place you will be operating at less than full power. A home and family will provide you with the foundation you need to reach out into the community and make yourself known. You have a keen eye for detail and are a natural for management and supervisory positions. You will always have to fight off promotions.

Challenges and Pinnacles

There are several other numbers that are also derived from your birthdate and these numbers provide additional information about the progress of your life and its timing. Numerologically, your life can be divided into four main sections or time spans. Each section lasts a specific length of time and includes both a high point or pinnacle as well as a challenge, or lesson to learn during that time period. The challenges indicate the obstacles that you will encounter during life. These must be met, accepted, and overcome for life to proceed harmoniously. The pinnacles show the peak experience or major strength for a given period. From studying the pinnacles and challenges for each section of our life, we can understand the flavor or theme for that period. Here are your specific time cycles with their pinnacles and challenges.

First Life Period: Age 0-30
	Pinnacle=5 Wild child! Having it your own way, interested in everything and everybody. But no strings attached please. You need and love your freedom as you move from place to place and face to face. Possibly very creative and all eyes on you.
	Challenge=1 You need to reach out and assert yourself. To be more aggressive and forceful during this time. Not to bend so easily. Not to go along with the crowd. Instead, stand up and be counted. Develop a more original and independent stance.

Second Life Period: Age 30-39
	Pinnacle=4 A time to get off your duff and take care of business. Hard work is indicated and long hours too! We get out of life what we put into it. Now is the time to pay some dues and work out the wrinkles. A strong home life can be developed.
	Challenge=2 Curbing your own interests is in order. Developing an ability to cooperate and respond to others is the main event during this time. Fight off a tendency to be alone, by yourself, or overly self-conscious. Mingle.

Third Life Period: Age 39-48
	Pinnacle=9 Your philanthropic self is to the fore. Community projects and humanitarian concerns will figure high on your list of priorities. You will be called upon to give of yourself in many ways. Don't forget your own family meanwhile.
	Challenge=1 New beginnings or, at least, a reordering of priorities. A need to be independent and self-sufficient will be felt. Learning not to depend upon others -not follow, but lead. This can be a very difficult lesson to learn now.

Fourth Life Period: Age 48-End of Life
	Pinnacle=3 A link, a means for communication. Three is the spark or catalyst that unites opposite points of view. You are the peacemaker or interface here. A happy time full of peace and love is suggested.
	Challenge=1 There is a need to learn to be by yourself and on your own, with less dependence on those around you and in group support. Stand on your own feet.

Horoscope for the Week of July 19, 2010

Expansive Jupiter in Aries retrogrades this week. Life takes to the skies and flies high, hard and fast. Think of ways to cool your jets before they overheat. Not only do you burn metal, you melt it.

 

(Brad Pitt - has Jupiter in Aries)

ARIES   (MARCH 21 - APRIL 20)
No matter how hard you try, you cannot sit quietly and wait your turn. So be careful of becoming too pushy as you lust after the limelight. Rambos get their fingers clipped if they grab for too much self promotion and not enough kumbaya. Folks just want to be loved. So join the group and make all efforts work for the common good.... until next week....

TAURUS   (APRIL 21 - MAY 21)
As much as you would like to try and keep a secret, nothing stays hidden for long. Bulls might as well open up their kimono and give the world a peek. You may just find that there is something liberating about letting it all hang out. Hidden fears and secrets are hindering your personal growth. Toss off your psychological chains and rein in the world.

GEMINI   (MAY 22 - JUNE 21)
Friends, friends of friends and mere acquaintances get much more involved in your life now. Suddenly and overwhelmingly, your social calendar fills up and revs into overdrive. How fast and furious do you want your life to be? There is something to be said for quiet contemplation, moderation and solitude. I can’t think of much to say about it however. So just enjoy.

CANCER   (JUNE 22 - JULY 23)
Crabs may have to balance the often conflicting demands of their job. Opportunity knocks ... you to the ground. There are so many fantastic choices that you cannot decide which one will be the best for you. Hint: Not everything is clear and you should try to postpone any decision for as long as possible. When it doubt, close your eyes and point. Ouch!

LEO   (JULY 24 - AUGUST 23)
Things that are percolating behind the scenes will have a way of fouling up your travel plans this week in unexpected ways. Lions with itchy paws may have to scratch them closer to home at this time. But you don’t have to feel completely penned in. Let your imagination roam the neighborhood. Just be sure to keep it on a short leash. Grrr.

VIRGO   (AUGUST 24 - SEPTEMBER 23)
Even the most innocent, purely platonic action could result is a sexually charged moment. Does this mean that you will fall head over heels for a compadre? Or will you be the referee between friends and lovers? No matter what sexcapades the fates deliver to you, be ready to bite into every apple. Or better still, bake it up into an apple pie.  

LIBRA   (SEPTEMBER 24 - OCTOBER 23)
Partners take over your life. Libras who love to flit and flirt find that they are much more conscribed by relationship “rules”. And should you decide to break or bend these rules, you could expect a huge backlash. The solution to all of this is open communication and honesty. Try it for a change. For those on the hunt, pack extra cash to bag the big game.

SCORPIO   (OCTOBER 24 - NOVEMBER 22)
Working hard has it rewards. At least that is what the experts say. However for those Scorps with lots on their plates, this week is better served by delegating and supervising much of the mundane and detailed job tasks, if possible. Otherwise you will just get buried and delayed. When in doubt, offer a sincere apology and move your deadlines. At least try to sound sincere.

SAGITTARIUS   (NOVEMBER 23 - DECEMBER 22)
Fun goes crazy busy this week. There are so many delightful choices it will be hard to prioritize. Archers don’t know where to dip their chip first. Eat, drink and be very merry. Before you know it life tales a serious turn and you will be forced to give up the high life and get back down to business. That is unless you can hit the big lottery first. Vegas anyone...?

CAPRICORN   (DECEMBER 23 - JANUARY 20)
If your home is your castle, be prepared to stock the moat with sharks to stave off the hordes. Roll up the welcome mat and try to make your home a respite from the craziness of life.  Not only can you recharge your batteries, you can also tackle many long term home based projects. On second thought, maybe you should invite a few handy pals over for a get together...?

AQUARIUS   (JANUARY 21 - FEBRUARY 19)
Aquarians know just what to say to make things dramatically worse. And they don’t mind say it, anyway! Instead of scuttling the ship of state with your orations, try to measure your thoughts and words very carefully. Deliver your messages with delicate care and take any actions in measured steps. There is no use jumping in with both feet when the floor is so weak. Oops.

PISCES   (FEBRUARY 20 - MARCH 20)
This could be a time of monetary extremes for you. On the one hand, Pisces could be in for a rush of unexpected cash from some unexpected source. On the other hand, certain investments that were expected to go in a certain way, will not. There is not much you can do except keep a close eye on your dough and save whenever possible. Check you wallet for leaks.
