Holiday musings

(I have to say.. I am feeling a bit lost without planning for my daily horoscope posts... had a lovely weekend though, went for dinner Saturday evening and the next day went for a 35k bike ride, stopped for a picnic and watched the boats sail by, came back home and relaxed in the spa for an hour... so far, having fun relaxing and enjoying my summer holidays!)

Tip of the Week

(To restore shine and remove product build-up in your hair, use the following homemade solution: Mix two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar with one cup of water. Shampoo and rinse hair as usual, then wash with the homemade solution and rinse. If you have long, fine hair you can leave it in to help prevent tangling. Why it works? The acid in vinegar strips silicone from the hair shaft and smooths down the cuticle to make your hair shiny. Photograph source, Stylist Nicoletta Santoro; Photographer Patrick Demarchelier.)

Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces + Lily

{Daily horoscope for Thursday, July 30, 2009. NOTE: The daily horoscopes will be suspended for the month of August, as I will be on annual leave and these cannot be pre-scheduled in advance. Trusting you will understand.}


(Capricorn, December 22 to January 19: Have a little patience and hold back on any urge to push, and all the little details might just work themselves out. It's a hard stance to take, especially for someone who's as driven and hard working as you are, but one of the tricks about life is knowing when to rest and take a step back, as well as when to push forward with all your effort. Now is a moment in which you should rest.)

(Aquarius, January 20 to February 18: Making connections is important today. Therefore, you should call upon your charm, perseverance, and attention to detail to help you make the most out of the opportunities at hand. If you are thinking of a career move, sending out some feeler emails to people you know 'in the biz' could yield some very interesting leads. If you are working your way down the romance path, someone from your past is interested in reconnecting -- give them a call and see what's new.)

(Pisces, February 19 to March 20: Stop going in circles -- like being on a merry-go-round, it's lots of fun at first, but then after a few minutes, you could start to feel just a touch nauseous. Even if you're not sure where you want to go just yet, it's imperative that you clear your head before you make any big decisions. Take your time and move at your own pace while you're at it -- rushing into something could be a big mistake. Horoscope via Marie Claire.com.
