Daily Horoscope: Cancer, Leo & Virgo

{Daily horoscope for Tuesday, October 13, 2009}


(Cancer, June 24 to July 22: This would be the perfect evening to have the whole crew over. You know there's something -- and maybe someone -- you'd love to show off. So why not do it this way? You're an expert at whipping together what you call 'simple treats' that would blow any TV show chef away. But that part isn't mandatory, of course. Your place is so cozy and your company so coveted that a pizza on that wonderful couch would be just as good.)

(Leo, July 23 to August 23: It's very important that you pay attention to one key fact now: You can quite literally have anything you want. That's the easy part. What might be tough is the part that involves you dealing with it once you have it. Sound vaguely like that old warning about being careful what you wish for -- because you might get it? Well, it should. That's exactly the line you're walking. Tread gently, and look both ways before you cross.)

(Virgo, August 24 to September 22: If this secret thing goes on much longer, it's going to make you crazy. You want to tell a certain someone about a certain issue, but you're not sure that you should -- and uncertainty isn't your usual state of affairs. In fact, if anyone is ordinarily quite sure about their next move, it's you. This, however, is an extreme circumstance, and you know it. You're also painfully aware of what can happen with one false move. Don't worry. You won't make it. Horoscope via Marie.com. Photograph source, Ru_glamour. More, here.)

Daily Horoscope: Aries, Taurus & Gemini

{Daily horoscope for Monday, October 12, 2009}


(Aries, March 21 to April 19: The harvest moon brings with it time to collect impressive financial rewards or move up the food chain. Energy and incentive only get you so far, so work on being a team player. With Mars in your domestic zone, everything there, including a pet or a partner, is a candidate for an extreme makeover. You may have to do some financial triage to make it a reality, though.)

(Taurus, April 20 to May 20: Fight or flight? The latter is most tempting now, but you have work to do. Tough out the tricky tasks before you and you’ll pave the way to future glory. After much holiday feasting, nurture body and soul in other ways; think spa break or another healthy getaway. Unexpected benefit: it’s when you’re at your most relaxed that someone could run away with your heart.)

(Gemini, May 21 to June 20: Life finally becomes a smooth highway. Roadblocks evaporate and you’ll make progress even if you’re not sure of the final pit stop. Just keep your foot on the gas and eyes firmly on the road. Not that you can’t make a few detours— you’ve earned some frolic time. Look out for the guy you’ve had your eye on. He might give you the chequered flag. Horoscope via Flare.com. Photograph Source, Flickr. Tomorrow October 13th's horoscope: Cancer, Leo & Virgo.)

Favorite Color Combination - From the Right Bank to the Left Coast


{Hello, I'm alek from From the Right Bank to the Left Coast and I was thrilled when Linda invited me to participate in this series as color is one of my favorite topics. I seem to have a new favorite color combination every other week but the one that I always come back to is black and white. My entire wardrobe is practically black and white, I collect black and white photography and it's now starting to make its way into my home. To me, it's classic, oh so Chanel, and completely timeless.}


(Thank you for contributing, Alek. I have to admit to a fondness for black and white as well, not to mention an absolute obsession with Chanel! Image 1 from Coco+Kelley and Image 2 from This is Glamorous.)

Lovely and Unrelated

{two lovely, yet unrelated photographs...

BTW, you may be interested to know that Canadian scientists
have become the first in the world to decode the DNA of breast cancer cells, and have discovered, to their surprise, that the gene mutations in those tumours shift as the disease spreads. The discovery has significant importance in the treatment of patients. Congratulations to Dr. Sam Aparicio and Dr. Marco Marra of the B.C. Cancer Agency's Michael Smith Genome Sciences Centre. Read the article, here.}
