Boleh Percaya, Boleh Tidak, meskipun katanya, ‘banyolan’ di bawah ini hasil sebuah studi. Tentang identitas seksual yang katanya bisa terbaca lewat huruf pertama nama seseorang. Tapi, sebagai hiburan, boleh deh catatan ini dinikmati.
A
Anda jauh dari romantis. Lebih tertarik pada tindakan, sih. Ada prinsip ‘apa yang dilihat, itulah yang didapat’. Anda pasti tidak sabar main mata atau pegangan tangan di gedung bioskop. Maunya langsung tancap, hehehe. Maka tidak ada tempat bagi seseorang yang malu-malu kucing, manis, pura-pura sopan atau muna. “Sudah bukan jamannya isyarat yang tak jelas” kata Anda. Padahal, secara penampilan luar, tidak kelihatan lho, bahwa Anda itu penuh gairah dan seksi.
B
Duh, romantisnya. Bukankah Anda suka suasana makan malam yang indah? Anda juga suka menerima hadiah-hadiah sebagai tanda cinta dari pasangan. Anda ingin dimanja dan tahu bagaimana memanjakan dia. Anda sangat pribadi dalam menunjukkan rasa cinta dan khususnya saat bercinta. Anda akan menahan semuanya sampai segala sesuatu sesuai. Anda mampu mengontrol hasrat dan puasa dari seks bila harus. Anda membutuhkan sensasi dan pengalaman baru. Anda ingin bereksperimen.
C
Anda adalah pribadi yang sangat sosial. Maka hubungan pribadi sangatlah penting. Anda butuh kedekatan dan kebersamaan. Anda harus dapat bicara dengan pasangan sebelum, selama dan sesudah bercinta. Anda ingin, objek kasih sayang haruslah bisa diterima secara sosial, untuk itu doi harus ganteng atau cantik. Anda melihat kekasih sebagai teman dan pendamping. Anda adalah orang yang sangat seksi dan sensual. Yang Anda butuhkan adalah seseorang yang menghargai dan hampir memuja Anda. Nah, ketika itu tak tercapai, Anda tega meninggalkannya dalam waktu lama tanpa aktivitas seks sama sekali. Anda adalah seorang ahli dalam mengontrol keinginan.
D
Semangat Anda besar sekali dalam mengejar sesuatu yang diinginkan. Kenapa? Seperti tak ada kata menyerah. Tapi Anda sangat ngemong dan peduli pada masalah orang lain. Di luar itu, Anda sangat seksi. Bergairah. Setia dan penuh semangat dalam membina hubungan meski kadang posesif dan pencemburu. Seks, bagi Anda adalah hal yang menyenangkan dan harus dinikmati. Anda terdorong oleh hal-hal eksentrik dan tak biasa, bebas dan terbuka. Untuk yang terakhir ini waspadalah.
E
Ternyata, kebutuhan terbesar Anda adalah bicara. Jika teman kencan bukan pendengar yang baik, hubungan bisa buruk. Maka carilah pacar yang menarik secara intelektual. Jika tidak, Anda tak akan tertarik secara seksual padanya. Sehari-hari, Anda benci ketidakharmonisan, tapi menikmati perdebatan. Aneh ya? Anda juga suka main mata, dengan kilah: tantangan itu lebih penting dibanding tindakan seksual. Boleh dipercaya kok, Anda sangat setia begitu sudah menjatuhkan hati. Tapi kesetiaan itu tak cukup berarti bagi kekasih Anda jika ia bukan orang pintar. Karena Anda bisa tertidur dengan buku di pelukan.
F
Jangan terlalu idealis-lah. Anda juga sangat memuja lawan-jenis. Yang Anda cari adalah pasangan hidup terbaik. Nggak gampang lho. Karena Anda merasa sangat setia pada pasangan? Atau karena Anda merasa sensual, seksi? Di depan banyak orang, Anda suka pamer, lho. Suka kemewahan dan kecantikan. Di balik sifat romantis yang Anda miliki. Sehingga adegan cinta dramatis adalah fantasi favorit Anda di masa silam. Tapi, sebagai kekasih, Anda sangat baik hati kok.
G
Anda orang yang sangat pemilih, lho. Sukanya pada kesempurnaan diri, dan apalagi kekasih. Anda hanya menanggapi orang-orang yang status serta intelektualitasnya lebih. Di tempat tidur, Anda tahu bagaimana meraih puncak stimulasi erotis karena Anda mengerjakannya dengan amat cermat. Anda dapat menjadi seseorang yang amat aktif secara seksual ketika menemukan waktu yang tepat. Tugas-tugas dan tanggung jawab, mengatasi hal-hal lain. Anda mungkin sulit dekat secara emosi dengan seorang kekasih, tetapi tidak kesulitan dekat secara seksual.
H
Anda mencari pasangan yang dapat menaikkan reputasi dan mendapatkan keterampilan. Anda sangat baik terhadap kekasih sekali waktu menjalani komitmen. Hadiah-hadiah Anda sebenarnya merupakan investasi bagi pasangan. Sebelum menjalani komitmen, Anda cenderung berhemat dan berhati-hati terhadap pengeluaran dan kebiasaan berkencan serta sama hati-hatinya dengan keterlibatan secara seksual. Anda adalah kekasih yang sensual dan sabar.
I
Anda memiliki kebutuhan besar untuk dicintai, dihargai, bahkan dipuja. Anda menikmati kemewahan, sensualitas dan kenikmatan ragawi. Anda mencari kekasih yang tahu apa yang dikerjakan. Anda tidak tertarik orang-orang amatir kecuali mereka yang membutuhkan tutor. Anda cerewet dan menghabiskan banyak tenaga untuk menjadikan terpenuhinya keinginan. Anda butuh eksperimen dan mencoba mode baru untuk kegiatan seks. Anda mudah bosan sehingga membutuhkan petualangan dan perubahan seksual. Anda lebih sensual daripada seksual tetapi kadang menurun menjadi terlalu bernafsu, hihihi…
J
Anda sangat romantis dan terkait dengan kemewahan cinta. Memiliki pasangan adalah hal yang sangat penting bagi Anda. Anda bebas dalam menyatakan cinta dan ingin mengambil kesempatan, mencoba pengalaman seks dan pasangan baru, membuat semuanya terasa enak. Otak, memicu Anda. Anda harus merasa bahwa pasangan mendorong secara intelektual. Bila tidak, Anda akan kesulitan menjaga hubungan dengannya. Anda membutuhkan cinta, butuh disayang, butuh suasana yang mewah, pokoknya dihargai.
K
Tak ada kata lain, kecuali : Anda benar-benar luar biasa mengagumkan.
L
Anda sangat romantis, idealis kadang percaya bahwa mencintai itu artinya berkorban. Anda mengakhiri hubungan atau berhenti menarik hati orang yang punya masalah tak biasa. Anda melihat diri sendiri sebagai penyelamat kekasih. Anda tulus, penuh kasih, penuh nafsu dan mimpi. Anda mudah jatuh cinta. Anda sering berfantasi dan terdorong oleh film dan majalah. Anda tidak mengatakan rahasia hidup kepada orang lain. Apalagi fantasi seksual Anda.
M
Emosional dan bersemangat, deh. Ketika terlibat dalam sebuah hubungan, Anda melempar seluruh diri Anda di dalamnya. Tak ada yang bisa menghentikan. Tak satu palang pun mampu menghalang. Anda habis-habisan, dan mengidamkan seseorang yang sama : penuh kasih dan bersemangat. Anda percaya pada kebebasan seksual total. Anda ingin mencoba semua. Pasokan energi seksual Anda seolah tak pernah mati. Anda juga senang bertindak seperti ‘ibu’ bagi pasangan. Asyik, kan?
N
Sori, Anda payah di tempat tidur !
O
Anda sangat tertarik kegiatan seksual tapi sangat tertutup dan malu mengakui hasrat itu. Anda bisa mengarahkan banyak energi seksual untuk menghasilkan uang dan atau mencari kekuasaan. Anda dengan mudah dapat memperpanjang periode lajang Anda. Anda penuh kasih, penuh gairah, pecinta seks, dan menuntut hal yang sama dari pasangan. Seks adalah hal yang serius sehingga Anda meminta keragaman intensitas dan ingin mencoba semua. Kadang, gairah Anda berubah menjadi posesif yang harus terus dicek.
P
Anda sangat sadar akan norma sosial. Anda tak akan berpikir untuk melakukan sesuatu yang membahayakan
citra atau reputasi. Penampilan itu penting. Anda membutuhkan pasangan yang kelihatan tampan atau cantik, tapi juga pandai. Anehnya, Anda memandang pasangan sebagai musuh untuk mendorong getaran seks. Anda relatif bebas dari gangguan seksual. Anda mau bereksperimen dan mencoba cara baru. Anda sangat sosial dan sensual. Anda menikmati main mata dan membutuhkan cukup banyak penghargaan dari segi fisik.
Q
Anda butuh aktivitas dan dorongan konstan. Anda punya banyak sekali energi fisik. Tak mudah bagi seorang pasangan untuk tetap bersama Anda, baik secara seksual maupun hal lain. Anda adalah kekasih yang antusias dan cenderung tertarik pada orang dari kelompok etnis lain. Anda butuh roman, jantung hati dan bunga serta perbincangan untuk menaikkan gairah dan berlanjut ke kegiatan seks.
R
Anda orang yang sangat logis dan berorientasi pada tindakan. Anda butuh seseorang yang dapat mengikuti langkah, dan secara intelektual menyamai, syukur lebih cerdas. Anda menjadi bergairah karena dorongan pikiran dibanding badan yang indah. Tapi, ketertarikan fisik juga amat penting bagi Anda. Maka, si dia harus orang yang bisa dibanggakan. Secara pribadi, Anda sangat seksi, dan beranggapan seks itu penting, sehingga sisi negatifnya Anda dapat menjadi pasangan yang sangat menuntut.
S
Anda sangat tertutup. Suka menahan diri dan malu. Padahal Anda cukup sensual dan bengairah. Hanya dalam keintiman pribadi Anda membiarkan alam membuka rahasia Anda. Ketika seks menjadi hal fundamental, Anda adalah seorang ahli. Anda tahu semua trik kecil, dan sanggup bersandiwara atau bermain-main dan membuat kehidupan cinta menjadi sangat serius. Anda punya kesabaran untuk menunggu orang yang tepat.
T
Anda sangat sensitif, pribadi, dan pasif secara seksual. Anda menyukai pasangan yang mengambil pimpinan. Musik, lampu temaram, dan pikiran romantis menaikkan gairah Anda. Anda berfantasi tetapi tidak mudah jatuh cinta. Ketika sedang kasmaran, Anda romantis, idealis, menggelegak, dan amat bersemangat. Anda menikmati saat pikiran dan perasaan terdorong, terangsang dan tergoda. Anda adalah orang yang mahir dalam bermain mata. Anda mampu membuat hubungan seperti mimpi.
U
Anda antusias dan idealis ketika sedang jatuh cinta. Anda jatuh pada orang-orang yang memuja. Anda melihat roman sebagai tantangan. Anda adalah seorang penjelajah dan butuh petualangan, kehebohan dan kebebasan. Anda hanya berurusan dengan hubungan yang potensial. Anda merasa nikmat memberi hadiah dan melihat pasangan terlihat cantik atau tampan. Dorongan seks Anda kuat dan bernafsu untuk langsung dikagumi. Anda ingin menempatkan kesenangan pasangan di atas keinginan diri sendiri.
V
Anda itu individualis dan butuh kebebasan. Anda menunggu sampai kenal seseorang dengan baik sebelum berkomitmen. Mengenal seseorang, berarti menjiwainya. Anda merasa butuh mengerti isi kepalanya untuk mengerti apa yang mambuatnya bergerak. Anda tertarik pada orang-orang eksentrik. Seringkali, ada perbedaan usia antara Anda dan pasangan. Anda menikmati bahaya, gairah dan ketegangan. Adegan gay membuat Anda bergairah meski Anda bukan gay.
W
Anda sangat bangga, tekun dan menolak tantangan jika mengejar cinta. Ego Anda dipertaruhkan. Anda romantis, idealis dan sering jatuh cinta dengan cinta itu sendiri dan tidak melihat pasangan sebagai dirinya sendiri. Anda merasa benar-benar melemparkan seluruh diri Anda ke dalam hubungan. Tak ada yang terlalu baik untuk pasangan. Anda menikmati percumbuan.
X
Anda butuh stimulasi konstan karena mudah bosan. Anda dapat berpacaran dengan lebih dari satu orang dengan mudah. Anda tak dapat mematikan pikiran. Anda terus bicara selagi bercinta. Anda punya hubungan cinta yang hebat, semuanya oleh diri sendiri dan di dalam kepala.
Y
Anda seksi, sensual dan sangat mandiri. Bila tak mendapatkannya dengan cara Anda sendiri, Anda menghentikan segala sesuatunya. Anda ingin mengontrol hubungan yang tidak selalu berjalan baik. Anda merespon dorongan fisik, menikmati sentuhan di leher dan menghabiskan berjam-jam hanya untuk menyentuh, merasakan dan mengeksplorasi. Namun jika Anda menghabiskan waktu mencari uang, Anda akan menghentikan kesenangan ragawi ini sementara waktu. Anda merasa perlu membuktikan pada diri sendiri dan pasangan, betapa hebatnya Anda sebagai seorang kekasih. Anda ingin umpan balik soal kinerja. Anda teman tidur yang terbuka, mendorong dan romantis.
Z
Bagi Anda, bisnis harus didahulukan dibanding seks. Jika Anda diganggu urusan karir, bisnis atau urusan uang, Anda akan susah untuk rilek dan mendapat mood untuk bercinta. Anda idealis, romantis terhadap tanggungjawab dan merasa harus sangat sensual. Anda tak pernah kehilangan kontrol terhadap emosi. Anda sangat hati-hati sebelum memberikan hati dan tubuh untuk urusan satu ini. Sekali Anda berkomitmen, Anda akan lekat seperti lem.

Go From Feeling Afraid, Hesitant Or Miserable To Confident,
A number of years ago I heard a powerful story aboutmotivation. I don't remember where I heard it or even ifit was true story or not, but it perfectly exemplifies thehuman ability to transcend circumstances.My memory of it is fuzzy, so here's my version... with atwist.A reporter decided to follow up on an incredible humaninterest story after hearing of two brothers, one avicious, dangerous criminal to be locked up for the nextten years for his latest crime, and the other a highlyrespected university professor.After the arrest of brother number one, he told the policeabout his brother, his closest living relative. After the police discovered who brother number two was, areporter was given the tip that this could be aninteresting story.Upon interviewing both men at length, the reporter learnedthat their father was a brutal man. He was a hard drinker.And his brand of teaching his boys "right from wrong"involved terrible verbal abuse no matter where theyhappened to be. When they "got out of line," he hit themwith belts, his fists, sticks - whatever was handy.They both told almost identical stories of extremecruelty. Neither one was exempt from the old man's angerand drunken rage.While the boys were 19 and 20 respectively, their fatherdied of a massive heart attack. Shortly afterwards, thebrothers had a falling out and never saw each other again -brother number one moved out of state and sort of fell offthe face of the earth... living his life between jail terms.Brother number two graduated from college and followed adesigned path to living a rewarding life of service to hiscommunity, his church and his family. The thing that practically knocked the reporter over wasboth brothers' identical answer to the same question.After getting the background on both individuals, thequestion was, "How did you get here to this point in yourlife?"The two answered the question with this same response..."With a father like mine, how could I be any different?"One used his father as an excuse, while the other used himas motivation - as training on what not to do.You see, it's not what happens to you in life thatdictates where you'll go and who you'll be. It's what youdo with it.I'll bet that, right now, you could sit down and list atleast a dozen people who have risen up from hellishchildhoods, or who are completely different than anyoneelse in their families in some significant way. You'lldiscover that, concerning the differences, there arecompletely different belief systems, different ways of"looking at" the situations, different motivations andreward systems.So I'm being honest when I tell you there is no reason onthe face of the earth why you can't achieve your next biggoal. None. I don't care how many times you may havefallen on your face.Do you want to reach some health milestone after repeatedfailures? Then decide to. And stop with the excuses. You've been lying to yourselftoo long.Do you need to learn something, to pass some test, to geta degree or license? Then get off your backside, shut offthe TV and do it.Do you see a failure when you look in the mirror? Do youknow what to do, but just always decide not to do it? Thenturn the volume of the criticism in your head down. Shutoff the excuses. Write down on 3x5 cards statements likethese:-Good job, I really tried hard.-I really have quite a talent there.-I'm quite a handsome man/beautiful woman-Boy, when I have a job to do I just tear right in and getit done....And read them often.Write down empowering questions like these:What is good about me? What could be?What are the many benefits I will get by doing this orbelieving that?Why do I want to achieve (some outcome)?What is my best character trait?How can I get (someone) to really truly admire and respectme?There are thousands more. And they all make you feel better and more capable. With this reading as a habit, you will change how you seeyourself.What you're being exposed to now is what I discovered tobe the inner differences between the winners and doers inlife and the losers and watchers.And if you think this doesn't work, you couldn't be morewrong. Think about the two brothers and all the billions, deadand alive, who have risen above their circumstances andtheir old programming to be, do and have more than itappeared they ever would. You've experienced this. Nowit's time to turn it up a notch. Grab yourself a huge goal.Our Think Right Now! audios are based, in part, on thiswhole technology. Go to our site and check out some of the changes peoplehave made using them. It's downright scary.When you change what goes in, you will change what comesout... IF it goes in regularly and in the right way.Come on, make today something special.Make today your day.

12 karakter Shio
1. Kelinci, Populernya Si Lembut Hati
Di antara 12 hewan yang menjadi perlambang shio Cina, Kelinci yang paling lembut. Karena itu pula ia baik dan manis, dan karenanya amat populer. Dalam pergaulan, tak ada seorang pun yang cuek pada mereka, sebab Kelinci merupakan teman yang menyenangkan dan tahu bagaimana bersikap. Rumah seorang Kelinci selalu indah karena ia pencinta seni yang berselera tinggi. Mereka juga biasanya selalu tampil dalam pakaian yang bagus dan pantas. Kalau Anda mengecek lemari pakaiannya, pasti selalu ada busana mahal di dalam sana. Tidak mudah memprovokasi Kelinci, karena ia memang terlahir kalem. Mereka tidak senang beradu argumentasi dan lebih menyukai kehidupan yang tenang dan damai. Mereka juga sentimental dan penuh kasih sayang. Makanya, umumnya mereka juga cenderung cengeng. Kalau Anda curhat padanya, ia bisa tersentuh karena persoalan Anda itu. Karena itu pula, bila Anda seorang salesman, Anda akan lebih mudah menjual sesuatu kepada Kelinci. Konon, 9 dari 10 Kelinci pasti akan membeli produk apa pun yang Anda tawarkan! Nyaris tak ada kelemahan Kelinci, kecuali bahwa ia tak memiliki keistimewaan yang menonjol ketimbang shio lain. Namun, justru dengan begitu Kelinci bisa sukses dalam pekerjaan. Ketenangan dan kehati-hatiannya adalah kunci keberhasilannya. Cuma, mungkin dia agak berkesan lambat. Bila ia bisa sedikit saja mengubah pembawaannya yang konservatif itu dan menjadi sedikit lebih agresif, mereka bisa menjalani hidup yang amat normal. Si lembut hati ini juga merupakan pasangan yang baik dalam hubungan asmara. Romantis, manis, dan setia, Kelinci jantan biasanya agak pemilih ketika akan menentukan pasangan. Yang betina, hmmm, mereka lebih senang melihat bayangan diri sendiri di cermin dan menggosip ke sana ke mari ketimbang memulai hubungan yang serius.

Monyet = Menyenangkan (73)

2. Macan, Sang 'Raja' yang Bijak
Seperti juga Naga, kata kunci bagi Macan adalah ditakdirkan sebagai pemimpin. Merekalah yang selalu berada di depan, dan yang siap berteriak, "Ayo, Maju!" Mulia dan tak kenal takut, Macan banyak dihormati karena semangatnya yang pantang mundur, kebijaksanaan, dan kemurahan hatinya yang tak terkira. Bahkan musuhnya pun kagum padanya. Dikenal sebagai pejuang yang tangguh, mereka mampu berdiri di mana pun yang menurut pendapat mereka benar. Meski mereka agak sedikit egois dari waktu ke waktu, sang 'raja' juga berhati dermawan. Dan karena itu pula, sulit menerka suasana hatinya, yang selalu penuh semangat, dan kadang begitu tergesa-gesa. Macan sulit untuk ditolak, sebab mereka seolah punya daya magnetis yang sedemikian kuat. Mereka bisa bersemangat dan meledak-ledak, namun juga bisa kalem. Lembut hati tapi menakutkan, menyeramkan dalam penampilan, tapi bisa juga lembut dan misterius pada saat-saat yang tak terduga. Kelemahannya, Macan sering kali terlalu percaya diri. Ini membuatnya tak mau patuh pada peraturan. Malah orang lainlah yang harus mematuhi peraturan yang dibuat Macan. Karena itu, memang lebih baik tak menantang kepedean sang Macan, meski mereka juga gemar akan petualangan dan hiburan. Karena tak sabaran, Macan pada akhirnya sering memilih bekerja sendirian. Untungnya, mereka memang senang bekerja, tipe pekerja keras, energetik dan dinamis. Bila mereka mengerjakan suatu tugas, maka pekerjaan itu akan dilakukan dengan baik, penuh antusiasme, dan efisien. Meski merupakan 'mesin' pencetak uang, Macan tidak terlalu peduli soal uang - ia baru cemas kalau uangnya habis sama sekali.
Dalam cinta, Macan melibatkan emosi dan sensitif. Mereka memang pencinta yang penuh gairah dan romantis, tapi juga terlalu intens. Apalagi, Macan amat memperhatikan teritorinya, sehingga ia cenderung posesif terhadap siapa pun yang 'dimilikinya'. Tantangan terbesar bagi Macan adalah kemampuannya untuk memahami arti dari sikap yang sewajarnya.
Pasangan 'Macan'
Tikus = Untuk meraih sukses, keduanya harus sabar (Skor 65)
Kerbau = Nyaris mustahil bisa berjalan selaras (33)
Macan = Dua macam bersatu? Amat tidak disarankan (52)
Kelinci = Sulit.Tapi,mungkin juga bisa menghasilkan pernikahan yang nyaman (46)
Naga = Meskipun ada berbagai kesulitan, Anda berdua bisa mengatasinya (76)
Ular = Sulit untuk menemukan apa yang mereka lihat pada masing-masing (69)
Kuda = Kenapa tidak, punya banyak persamaan, kan? (86)
Kambing = Satu dari kombinasi terburuk (24)
Monyet = Keduanya sama-sama saling cinta (81)
Ayam = Bukan hubungan yang seimbang (55)
Anjing = Bagus. Hubungan yang seimbang dan harmonis (89)
Babi = Keduanya amat berbeda, tapi boleh juga dicoba (79)

3. Naga,
Terlahir Sebagai Pemimpin Sebagai makhluk dongeng yang mewakili simbol imperium Cina, Naga dilahirkan sebagai pemimpin. Dan karena itulah, banyak orang Cina berharap anak-anaknya lahir di tahun Naga. Orang-orang yang berada di bawah naungan shio Naga pandai memulai sesuatu dan menjalankannya. Mereka diberkahi kekuasaan dan keberuntungan, hingga orang-orang menghormatinya. Mungkin itu pula sebabnya, Naga cenderung feodal dan aristokratis. Sejauh yang bisa mereka lihat, kekuasaan mereka tak dapat disangkal. Mereka terkenal idealis, perfeksionis, keras kepala, berdaya tahan hidup tinggi, dan hidup dengan pemikiran bahwa mereka sempurna. Naga juga amat agresif dan tahu apa yang dimauinya, serta mau berusaha keras untuk memperoleh keinginannya. Dengan kata lain, Naga tak cocok beranjak menjadi tua atau lemah sebab kondisi tak berdaya tak mungkin bisa ditanggungkannya. Walau penuh keberuntungan, Naga juga dipenuhi sifat-sifat jelek. Sudah keras kepala, mudah tersinggung pula. Selain itu, ia suka bermulut besar, dengan kata-kata yang terlempar keluar tanpa sempat dipikir. Tapi, pendapat-pendapatnya banyak didengar orang dan nasihatnya memang selalu baik. Pengaruh Naga terhadap orang lain memang hebat. Jangan mempersalahkan Naga yang tampak bangga dengan diri sendiri dan temperamental, sebab orang di sekitarnya ikut mendukung karakternya itu. Bila seorang Naga memasuki sebuah kumpulan, perlahan-lahan orang-orang seolah memberikan ruang baginya. Ia memang bisa tampil amat mengesankan, dinamis, dan menyenangkan - sekaligus juga berego tinggi, dan rasanya mustahil menyampaikan sesuatu yang tak ingin didengarnya. Sifatnya yang cenderung bersikap sebagai tiran membuat Naga ogah menerima perintah. Namun, entah karena pembawaan dari lahir, ia bisa bertindak amat lembut pada orang yang menjadi 'pelayan'nya. Si sombong ini juga sangat mengagumi kekayaan, prestise, status sosial, dan kemewahan. Untuk karir, Naga yang dianugerahi intelegensia tinggi, berkemauan keras, dan dermawan, tak punya kesulitan. Apa pun yang dipilihnya seperti dunia medis, artistik, ataupun politis, ia akan sukses dan bersinar. Dalam urusan cinta, lagi-lagi ia beruntung. Sebab, Naga akan dicintai dan tak pernah dikecewakan. Yang ada, malah ia yang bisa bikin perasaan orang lain remuk redam. Wanita yang berada di bawah shio Naga umumnya punya banyak penggemar dan sering dilamar. Hmm ...

Kerbau = Jangan, Anda akan terus bertengkar (48)

Ular = Mungkin akan berhasil (63)
Kuda = Cinta pada pandangan pertama, tapi hasrat terus menurun (57)
Kambing = Hubungan yang stabil dan nyaman (74)

4. Ular,
Yang Pintar Berdiplomasi Bagi orang awam, ular, kalau tidak menjijikkan, ya menakutkan. Tapi, bagi penyayang ular, reptil ini terlihat indah, dengan warna-warni di tubuhnya yang panjang. Begitu variatif dan memukau. Bagaimana halnya dengan 'manusia ular' alias mereka yang berada di bawah naungan shio ini? Apakah kepribadian mereka menakutkan? Atau malah mengagumkan? Ular, kalau melihat sejarah Adam dan Hawa, adalah pembujuk yang persuasif. Cuma dia yang bisa membuat kedua manusia pertama itu untuk meninggalkan surga, supaya menempuh kesengsaraan di dunia. Dalam konteks yang positif, orang yang dilahirkan dengan shio Ular terkenal pandai berdiplomasi, anggun, lembut, misterius, sekaligus juga menarik dan populer. Meski begitu, mereka bukan tipe yang senang membuat keonaran, dan hampir selalu memiliki perilaku yang baik. Tak seperti ular yang menggoda Hawa, mereka yang bershio ular justru orang-orang yang baik. Pendiriannya yang teguh, pandai mengatur keuangan serta dapat dipercaya menyimpan rahasia, membuat banyak orang menyukainya. Sebagai pembuat keputusan yang cepat dan tepat, orang dengan shio ular amat ahli membuat orang lain jatuh cinta padanya. Ia memang tipe yang irresistible. Sifat positif lain adalah ketidaksukaannya pada gosip. Maklum, karena sering berpikir, pemikirannya jadi dalam. Ia tak mau buang-buang waktu mengurusi hal yang tak perlu. Sebagai orang yang intelektual, gemar berfilosofi,ia seolah punya indera keenam dalam menilai orang lain. Ditambah lagi, ia amat berpegang teguh pada kesan pertama yang ditampilkan orang lain. Dalam soal keuangan, mereka yang bershio ular amat cermat, meski tak segan-segan menguras kantong untuk menolong orang lain yang membutuhkan. Hanya saja, karakternya yang posesif agak menyulitkan. Sekali menolong orang, pertolongannya berlebihan, dan menganggap orang lain itu miliknya sendiri. Tapi, dalam soal perfulusan, 'manusia ular' cukup beruntung. Entah bagaimana caranya, mereka selalu saja punya uang di tangan. Dan karena itu pula ia juga terkenal dermawan. Sayangnya, ular sering berbohong. Kalau ada apa-apa yang mempersulit keadaan, ia lebih senang berkelit dan berdusta untuk menyelamatkan diri. Dalam cinta, 'cowok ular' romantis, sementara yang cewek biasanya cantik dan sukses. Mereka juga punya sense of humor. Tapi, sekali punya pasangan, uuuh, cemburuan dan amat posesif - meskipun ia sudah tak cinta lagi. Baginya, penolakan adalah penderitaan besar bagi egonya. Mereka harus merasa diterima oleh siapa pun yang dipedulikannya. Mau tahu siapa yang bershio Ular? Brooke Shields dan John F. Kennedy.

Kerbau = Bisa jadi pasangan ideal (85)

Naga = Mungkin bisa (63)
Ular = Rumit, lebih baik dihindari (51)
Kuda = Keduanya saling tarik menarik dengan kuat (75)

5. Kuda,
Individualis yang Penuh Kontradiksi Dilahirkan dengan postur tubuh yang tegap, Kuda umumnya aktif dan energetik. Mereka juga berdaya tarik tinggi dan tahu benar bagaimana cara berbusana. Mereka sangat suka berada di tengah-tengah keramaian, karena dengan begitu mereka bisa dilihat orang. Kuda bisa Anda temui di berbagai acara, entah itu konser, teater, sedang rapat, dan pesta-pesta. Kuda yang berfirasat tajam juga bisa menebak apa yang akan dikemukakan seseorang sebelum orang itu menyelesaikan perkataannya. Kuda memang dikaruniai bakat-bakat tertentu. Dan, meskipun kelihatan cerdik, sebenarnya mereka tidak berintelegensia tinggi. Itu sebabnya, banyak juga Kuda yang tidak percaya diri. Tradisi Cina percaya bahwa Kuda akan meninggalkan rumah dalam umur yang sangat muda. Maklum, bakal alam Kuda memang bepergian atau balapan. Lagi pula, watak alam Kuda yang lain adalah sifatnya yang senang memberontak. Satu-satunya ikatan pada jiwa Kuda adalah energi dan ambisi. Sebagai hewan berdarah panas, karakter Kuda pun amat temperamental, tidak sabaran, dan sangat menggebu-gebu. Mereka juga egois dan cuma perhatian pada diri sendiri. Jarang-jarang mereka mau terlibat dalam persoalan orang lain yang membutuhkan pertolongan. Walaupun begitu, umumnya pekerjaan Kuda sangat berguna dan memberi keuntungan pada semua orang. Pekerja keras ini juga pandai mengelola uang dan finansialnya. Kelemahan Kuda adalah pendiriannya yang sering tiba-tiba berubah alias plin-plan. Namun, kalau sedang kasmaran, Kuda amat lemah. Mereka akan mempersembahkan apa pun untuk cinta. Secara umum, karakter Kuda penuh kontradiksi. Mereka bisa kelihatan penuh kebanggaan, berjalan dengan gagah dan arogan, tapi begitu memelas ketika jatuh cinta, sering iri tapi penuh toleransi, sombong tapi sering merendahkan diri. Mereka ingin memiliki sesuatu, tapi tak tahan oleh keinginan untuk membebaskan diri. Mereka butuh cinta tapi merasa tertekan. Namun, kebenarannya: Kuda adalah makhluk individual, yang hanya tergantung pada kebijakan dan keinginannya sendiri.

6. Kambing,
Berbakat Jadi Cenayang Shio Kambing berpembawaan anggun, menawan, artistik, penuh bakat, dan menyukai alam. Mereka juga kreatif, halus budi pekertinya, dan dikagumi banyak orang. Namun begitu, Kambing selalu merasa tidak aman. Mereka ingin dicintai dan dilindungi. Karena itu pula, Kambing mudah terbawa ke dalam situasi yang sulit. Sementara itu, watak alamiah mereka sebenarnya ingin menghindari konfrontasi apapun, sebab mereka tak tahan mengambil keputusan berat - apalagi yang tidak populer bagi orang banyak. Kambing juga senang berkhayal, sangat pesimistis, peragu, dan nyaris selalu cemas. Selain itu, mereka juga pemalas. Kalau punya pilihan, mereka lebih suka mengawini pasangan yang kaya raya dan ongkang-ongkang kaki sepanjang hidup ketimbang memilih pasangan yang biasa-biasa saja. Maklumlah, Kambing juga terobsesi oleh penampilannya sendiri. Obsesi ini memainkan peranan penting dalam stabilitas kepribadiannya. Bila sedang tidak tampil prima, ke luar rumah cuma untuk mengambil koran Minggu saja mereka enggan. Seiring dengan sifatnya yang ragu-ragu, Kambing senang mempelajari hal-hal yang berbau rahasia. Karena itu pula, hosroskop, astrologi, ataupun peramalan nasib, adalah hal-hal yang amat diminatinya. Maka, banyak juga orang Kambing yang berprofesi sebagai astrologer atau cenayang. Kelemahan si Kambing yang lain adalah sifat mereka yang tidak rapi dan cenderung berantakan. Berkarir dalam bisnis, bukanlah kelebihan Kambing. Mereka lebih baik menjadi seniman, penulis, atau karir apa pun yang mengandalkan bakat seni dan kreativitas. Dalam cinta, Kambing amat romantis, sensitif, manis, dan lembut. Walau begitu, sesekali mereka juga agak belagu dan malas berusaha. Untunglah, kedua sifat jelek itu bisa tertutupi dengan sikapnya yang penyayang.

7. Monyet
Cinta, Citra, dan Ceria Monyet yang tampak selalu ceria memang berpembawaan energetik dan penuh kegembiraan. Mereka juga pintar. Berikan buku yang membosankan kepadanya, dan Monyet akan mengubahnya menjadi sebuah lagu yang indah. Ia bahkan mengundang orang untuk merayakannya. Itu sebabnya, Monyet biasanya amat berbakat, kreatif, dan dermawan. Bila hadir di pesta, maka Monyet akan menjadi pusat perhatian. Daya tarik dan rasa humor mereka yang tinggi adalah kunci popularitas mereka. Penuh bakat sosial dan diplomatis, kadang-kadang pendapat yang mereka tampilkan sebetulnya tidak asli alias dibuat-buat. Maklum, mereka memang selalu menjaga citra. Namun, emosi mereka sungguhan. Anda bisa menduga perasaan apa yang sedang terkandung dalam hati Monyet - mereka ingin seluruh dunia tahu bagaimana bahagia atau sedihnya mereka. Orang-orang yang berada di bawah naungan shio Monyet pandai memecahkan masalah. Di mana saja Anda berada, siapa pun Anda, bila Anda punya masalah, tekanlah nomor telepon sang Monyet. Mereka tahu bagaimana cara mendengarkan dengan intens dan mencari jalan keluar pada saat bersamaan. Dan karena mereka dikaruniai bakat selalu ingin tahu, mereka juga selalu haus menambah ilmu. Meski begitu, Monyet yang ceria ini juga punya kelemahan. Kadang-kadang mereka tidak logis dan unreasonable. Tapi, mereka punya kemampuan untuk membujuk orang lain dan setiap orang di sekeliling mereka bahwa mereka melakukan hal yang benar. Monyet juga egois, meletakkan kepentingan diri sendiri di atas segala-galanya, oportunistis, dan tak peduli pada orang lain. Dalam karir dan sosialisasi, Monyet punya banyak kesempatan untuk menjadi terkenal. Apa pun yang dilakukannya, daya tarik dan keberuntungan akan membuatnya sukses. Sebagai teman, mereka loyal dan setia. Sebagai kekasih, mereka amat bergairah tapi hanya semusim - sebab mereka gampang jatuh cinta, gampang bosan, dan gampang cari orang lain lagi. Namun, ada satu kegemaran Monyet yang paling mencolok - makanan. Mereka memang tidak seperti Babi - yang selalu senang makan apa pun. Monyet suka ngemil kapan pun dan di mana pun mereka mau. Makanan favoritnya? Apalagi kalau bukan pisang!

8. Ayam
Tak Pernah Berdusta Dilahirkan sebagai kepribadian yang cerdas dan senang mengamati, Ayam tak pernah berhenti belajar dalam hidupnya. Karena itulah, mereka terkenal akurat dan teliti. Beberapa di antara mereka bahkan seolah punya indra keenam - karena ketekunannya, ia jadi mudah memprediksi sesuatu. Ayam juga terus terang dan mudah dipercaya. Dengan Ayam, apa yang Anda lihat, adalah apa yang juga akan anda peroleh. Tak ada sesuatu yang tersembunyi dalam karakter seorang Ayam. Di sisi lain, Ayam juga senang dikenal orang dan dipuja-puji. Karena itu, penampilannya juga selalu dilirik orang (meskipun, dalam hati, banyak Ayam yang lebih konservatif ketimbang penampilannya). Tampil menarik, cantik, dan indah, adalah keharusan yang dijaga keras oleh mereka. Itu pula sebabnya mengapa mereka mudah bersosialisasi dan senang memperoleh perhatian. Walau begitu, tak mudah mengakali Ayam. Biar kelihatan flamboyan, pikirannya selalu siaga dan skeptis. Begitu pula dengan badannya. Jarang orang melihat Ayam diam di suatu tempat tanpa melakukan apa pun. Ayam selalu sibuk, dan apa pun kesibukannya, ia mengerjakannya dengan penuh antusiasme yang tak ditutup-tutupi. Itu mungkin karena mereka dianugerahi banyak bakat alias multitalented. Ayam cocok berprofesi sebagai detektif, dokter, perawat, dan psikiater. Sisi negatif Ayam adalah kesukaannya terhadap busana dan penampilan. Walau ada juga yang tampil konservatif, tapi mereka amat terobsesi oleh penampilan. Bercermin adalah salah satu favoritnya, selain menghamburkan uang di toko busana dan aksesori. Sudah begitu, mereka juga tak segan-segan menawar untuk memperoleh harga yang termurah! Namun Ayam yang begitu logis, tajam, praktis dan penuh bakat ini pun suka bermimpi. Mimpi dan angan-angannya itu kadang-kadang membuat pasangannya kecewa. Soalnya, yang namanya mimpi sering tak bisa direalisasikan. Meski begitu, Ayam yang pandai menghibur hati ini (mereka juga berbakat menjadi host) amat setia. Mereka selalu menepati janji dan tak pernah berdusta. Bila Ayam mencintai dan mengagumi seseorang, mereka bahkan akan meraih bulan untuk membuat pasangannya happy. Beruntunglah Anda yang berkesempatan menjadi kekasihnya.

9. Anjing,
Penuh Tanggung Jawab Anjing, hewan peliharaan yang setia, jujur, dan menyenangkan itu sudah jadi teman manusia sejak lama. Tampaknya, mereka menghargai tradisi dan nilai-nilai kehormatan, dan suka membantu manusia. Lihat saja betapa bergunanya anjing sebagai penuntun jalan, penjaga rumah, ataupun pelacak jejak. Sifat-sifat anjing yang baik itu juga terdapat pada orang-orang yang lahir pada Tahun Anjing. Selain itu, Anjing hampir selalu bersikap adil, dan menjadi orang pertama yang meneriakkan ketidakadilan. Mereka tak hanya pintar bersosialisasi, tapi juga berintelegensia tinggi, penuh perhatian, dan pendengar yang baik. Loyal, setia, dan selalu jujur, adalah aspek yang membuat Anjing sukses dalam setiap pekerjaannya. Siapa pun bisa mengandalkan Anjing karena mereka tak akan pernah membuat orang lain kecewa. Dan sebagai pendengar yang baik, mereka juga asyik dijadikan tempat berbagi rahasia. Dijamin, rahasia Anda tak akan menyebar ke mana-mana! Bukan berarti Anjing tak punya kelemahan. Memang, dalam suasana hati yang bagus, Anjing adalah teman yang menyenangkan. Tapi, bila mereka sedang panik, mereka bisa menjelma menjadi orang yang jahat dan berbahaya. Mereka jadi sering menghakimi dan defensif, apalagi bila seseorang memperlakukannya dengan cara yang salah. Namun, secara umum, bila Anda tahu bagaimana cara bersahabat dengannya, Anjing akan menjadi teman terbaik sepanjang masa. Serius adalah kepribadian Anjing yang paling menonjol. Mungkin itu sebabnya ia juga amat bertanggungjawab. Anjing juga tak segan-segan mengomentari pekerjaan orang lain yang tak bertanggungjawab pada sektor-sektor publik, misalnya tentang lampu lalu-lintas yang kacau, kemacetan di jalan raya, bahkan juga cuaca. Kritiknya baru akan berkurang seiring dengan kedewasaannya. Karena sifat-sifatnya itu pula, Anjing cocok menjalankan profesi sebagai kritikus, dokter, dosen, pendeta, atau manajer dalam sebuah industri. Apa pun karirnya, yang jelas ia bisa jadi juru bicara yang baik tentang hal-hal yang ideal. Dalam hubungan cinta, Anjing berlaku seperti pemberi, sementara pasangannya adalah penerima. Itu karena mereka memang dermawan. Ketika kasmaran, ia teramat setia dan berterusterang. Kelemahannya adalah, sebenarnya ia agak takut menghadapi suatu hubungan cinta. Masalahnya, ia akan terlalu emosional, dan itu sangat mempengaruhi kestabilan jiwanya. Saat menjalin cinta, ia akan menjelma menjadi orang yang amat pencemas.

10. Babi,
Contoh Ketulusan dan Kepolosan
Si ambisius ini merupakan model yang baik dari ketulusan, kepolosan, toleransi, dan kehormatan. Kalau baru pertama kali ketemu, rasanya Anda tak percaya ada orang yang begitu polos seperti Babi. Soalnya, ia amat berhati-hati dan penuh perhatian, dan bertindak bak ksatria - yang selalu melindungi kaum lemah. Bila seseorang menaruh kepercayaan padanya, ia tak akan pernah membuat orang itu kecewa. Babi selalu ingin melakukan segalanya dengan benar. Karena itu pula, banyak orang menghormati Babi. Bila seseorang rajin membuat daftar kepribadian berdasarkan shio, maka ia akan menemukan bahwa Babi adalah orang yang paling baik, paling penuh kasih sayang, dan paling penuh perhatian di muka bumi. Mereka seolah dilahirkan untuk memberi, menurut, dan melayani. Sayangnya, banyak orang mengambil keuntungan dari hal ini. Bukan hanya karena Babi sangat mudah dibohongi, tapi karena Babi memang senang diperlakukan seperti itu. Tak peduli setua apa pun umurnya, kedewasaan Babi seperti tak berkembang dalam urusan menilai karakter orang lain - mereka selalu menganggap semua orang itu baik. Mereka bahkan mau mengorbankan kebahagiaan dan kenyamanan hidupnya untuk orang lain. Sebagai teman, Babi mempersembahkan segala yang terbaik dari dirinya. Dengan catatan, Anda seiring dan sejalan dengan segala pendapatnya. Kalau Anda punya pertentangan pendapat, nama Anda tak akan ada lagi dalam daftarnya yang panjang. Ciri-ciri Babi yang lain adalah sifatnya yang pendiam. Tapi, sekali bicara, biasanya datangnya sekonyong-konyong. Dan ia akan terus ngomong sampai seluruh unek-unek dan pemikirannya keluar semua. Kebetulan pula, ia memang termasuk kaum intelektual yang haus akan ilmu pengetahuan. Beberapa orang menganggap Babi kaum yang sombong. Memang, tata cara, keturunan, dan selera tinggi adalah hal terpenting dalam hidup mereka. Kenyataannya, Babi memang sangat memperhatikan estetika. Babi dilahirkan dengan hidung yang mampu mengendus sesuatu yang stylish. Kelemahannya yang lain, ia amat cinta makanan lezat. Saking senangnya, biasanya penggemar cokelat ini juga kelebihan berat badan. Ketika menjalin asmara, Babi sangat sensitif, sekaligus naif, manis, dan penuh perhatian. Mereka juga romantis dan betul-betul bermaksud melangkahkan kaki ke mahligai perkawinan. Sisi negatifnya, mereka juga posesif, cemburuan, dan sok eksklusif.

11. Tikus,
Shio yang Tak Pernah LetihOrang Tikus dilahirkan di bawah simbol daya tarik dan agresivitas. Mereka ekspresif, murah hati, pekerja keras, dan kadang-kadang suka gosip. Mereka senang berpesta dan menghabiskan waktu untuk kongko-kongko dengan teman-teman. Meski begitu, mereka jarang punya teman sejati. Tapi, bila seseorang sudah menjadi temannya, mereka akan menganggap sang teman bak keluarga sendiri. Walau Tikus bisa juga kelihatan jahat, berpikiran sempit dan kuno,sebenarnya Tikus amat jujur. Mereka memang senang bergosip-ria, tapi, kalau punya masalah, mereka akan menyimpan dan menanggulanginya sendiri. Umumnya, mereka bisa melakukannya karena Tikus sangat percaya diri dan punya insting yang baik. Sisi negatif Tikus adalah kekeraskepalaannya. Mereka lebih suka hidup dengan aturan-aturannya sendiri. Karena itu, bekerjasama dengan orang Tikus rada sulit. Sebab, mereka 100 persen perfeksionis. Sifat buruknya yang lain adalah kebiasaannya menghamburkan uang, segera setelah mereka memperolehnya. Itu mungkin menjelaskan mengapa Tikus sangat berhati-hati kalau meminjamkan uang. Bisa-bisa, sama teman sendiri pun ia mengenakan bunga. Tinggi, lagi! Namun begitu, sukses ada di depan mata selama mereka mampu mengelola ketidakpuasan dan tuntutan hidupnya. Karena sangat berbakat dan teratur, orang-orang Tikus biasanya berhasil bila berkiprah di dunia bisnis atau politik. Dalam urusan cinta, Tikus memang bukan tipe yang romantis. Mereka juga bukan tipe yang bikin orang langsung jatuh cinta pada pandangan pertama. Tapi, sekali jatuh cinta, hmm, tak ada yang bisa menandingi - tanyalah pada orang-orang yang memiliki pasangan orang Tikus. Sebagai kekasih, Tikus pantas diperjuangkan. Sebab mereka setia, protektif, dan bisa bikin orang kangen.

12. Kerbau,
Pekerja Keras yang Dogmatis Shio Kerbau menjanjikan kerja keras dan persistensi. Mereka masih bisa bekerja ketika orang lain sudah letih. Mereka juga percaya pada dirinya sendiri dan memandang dunia ini dari dua segi, yaitu baik dan buruk. Mereka memegang teguh standar mereka yang tinggi itu dan sering menghakimi orang lain yang tidak sependapat dengan mereka. Dalam sebuah kerumunan atau pesta, Kerbau lebih suka menyendiri. Meski kelihatannya tenang, kalau marah mereka amat menakutkan dan impulsif. Karena itu, lebih baik jangan coba-coba bertengkar dengan Kerbau. Sebagai kaum yang senang menyelidiki segala sesuatu, Kerbau punya ingatan yang bagus dan akurat ketika melaporkan sesuatu. Cobalah tanya pada mereka, siapa aja yang hadir dalam suatu pesta yang telah berlangsung 8 bulan lalu. Dalam bisnis, Kerbau bisa sukses dalam seni, perumahan, dan sebagai kontraktor. Karena ia pandai dan bertangan dingin, ia juga bisa menjadi ahli bedah. Kekurangan mereka adalah kekeraskepalaan dan dogmatis. Mereka amat teguh pada keputusannya dan tak akan menyesalinya. Walau sangat dekat dengan keluarga, Kerbau sering menemukan bahwa justru mereka yang berada di dekatnyalah yang sering mengecewakannya. Tapi, Kerbau menghadapi segala sesuatu dengan sabar dan pernuh perhatian, membuat siapa pun merasa beruntung menjadi temannya. Di sisi cinta, Kerbau loyal dan penuh tanggung jawab. Mereka bukan kaum pencemburu, tapi akan mati-matian mempertahankan status, entah sebagai kekasih, suami, atau istri. Mereka memang sangat family-oriented dan konservatif.

Chapter #64 Today is your day to win
The old cliché "Success leaves clues" is possibly the mostignored pathway to achievement I know of.Why?In addition to not wanting to look unknowledgeable, Ithink, a big reason is because getting advice and answersoften either costs money, which people don't want toinvest, or time, which even fewer want to invest. I say invest because whenever you "spend" time or money onlearning, you've given yourself the chance to grow andbecome better now and in the future at whatever youinvested your time or money in. And if you are better atsomething as a result of your "spending" then you've made awise "investment."The average person jumps head first into most situationswithout knowing a thing about what they're doing.A great example of this is a story my uncle Dave told methis past weekend.You see, he and a friend took a fishing trip to Canada afew weeks ago. Every guest in the lodge they were stayingin was there for the same reason... great fishing. Most of the guys there were fairly experienced fisherman. And that was their biggest problem.They were just going to go up there and catch more fishthan they ever did before. Man, those fish were just goingto jump in the boat. We'll just drop our line in and pullout the fish.Right.My uncle and his friend, also very experienced fishermen,took a slightly different view.They'd never fished that area before. So, for $150 [$75 apiece], they hired a guide for thefirst two entire days of their trip. What they got was the experience of a 71-year-old manwho'd been fishing in that area his entire life. He was anexpert in that area. He showed them which lakes, where oneach lake to fish, why, which lures, you name it.Their results?Well, consider this...In a virtual fishing paradise, one guest in the lodge thatweek caught just 6 fish all week long.My uncle, with the advice of the guide, caught 294Walleyed Pike during the same week fishing the samelakes... more than any of the other guests.He told everyone about the guide. So did anyone else hire a guide that week? Nope. He toldme that no one even asked him what he was doing to catch somuch. I guess they all just thought he was getting lucky. Big egos.This is a perfect parallel to how 97+% of all people treatall aspects of their lives.I see it every day. Everywhere. In all settings. Obvious solutions to problems are just ignored.If you want to reach an important goal in your life, ifyou want to beat your competitors, if you want to havegreat relationships...If you want to excel at everything you do....Then you absolutely MUST get direction from someonewho's been there before, wherever "there" might be. Buy books and read them.Ask experienced people for solutions and listen. You might have already known 90% of the answer. So whatyou have to listen for and hold dear is the 10% you didn'tknow.And use it.I love going to amazon.com and reading the reviews peoplepost for books. So many people give bad reviews because intheir opinion, there was "nothing new." What they don'tsay is that all the "old" stuff, what now is generallyaccepted, they don't even use that.There is nothing wrong with hearing the same old stuff. Because unless you use what you've heard or read, you don'treally "know" it.Most tasks look easy on the outside, and they are... IFyou know what you're doing.I wouldn't even dream, for instance, of trying to putsomething together or learning a new piece of softwarewithout having the instructions at my side. But mostpeople ignore them. And their results show it. Look, you may have an I.Q. in the stratosphere. But ifyou aren't constantly looking to learn what you MUST knowto get your tasks done quickly and effectively in EVERYpart of your life, then you are creating a destiny ofalmost doing a good job, of coming close to findinghappiness but not quite getting there, of being known byeveryone including yourself as undependable. And with thatcomes a poor self-image.My purpose in writing this is for you to become more andmore of a person who is passionate about learning what youMUST learn in order to set and reach the little and bigbenchmarks on the way to your dreams.You just can't do it any other way. This isn't myopinion. It's an immutable principle of life. To denythis is to guarantee a high failure rate at many things youattempt.You don't want that. I know it.So do this...Make a list of your To-Do's for the next week. Look ateach item and ask yourself the question, "Am I really goodat doing this?" If the answer is no, then before youstart, write down all the things you need to know and do toprepare before you start. If you need some information,get it.And get excited. Smile. Laugh. Because when you getthat info, when you learn the thing you didn't know beforeand when you achieve your outcome easier and with more joythan you ever did before, you have expanded your knowledge,your capabilities and your value to yourself and othersfrom that moment on.Whenever you learn something new, no matter how small, youjust taught yourself that you can achieve the largest ofgoals... the most amazing of accomplishments... becausewhat are big accomplishments? Aren't they just many littleones all piled up? It's funny, huh? Success at just about anything is amazingly simple whenyou look behind the curtain. My uncle was a high schooldrop out. He didn't even go for weeks at a time.But when he changed his view about learning, he got hisGED, went to college at night, got his degree andultimately became the highest paid civilian employee inCentral New York in the NYS prison system.In the process, he learned that learning is fun and thatin every single experience he has, there is something hecan take away from it to help him make smarter decisions inthe future... like hiring a fishing guide when no one elsewould.So, how many "fish" are YOU going to catch in the next week?

chapter #63 Today is your day to win
When the subject of goals comes up, I just get plainexcited.There is nothing like mapping out a plan, working likecrazy and despite all obstacles, getting what you wereafter. Wow!! No matter what the goal is, even littledaily goals, it's exciting. They build momentum andanticipation. Just like a road sign telling you thatyou've only got 3 miles to go. Cool!In downtown Syracuse, NY, we have two towers that dwarfeverything else in the city--The MONY Towers I and II. Ifyou're from out of town and you want to get downtown, youdon't even have to know the streets. You just keepfollowing the two towers. And no matter how slow you go,you'll get there... eventually.This is true of any goal you could possibly have. Themost important thing is to be able to see what you'reafter. Or else, as Yogi said, you'll end up somewhere else.If the goal doesn't exist yet, you only have to use yourimagination. If it does; if others have already done whatyou want to do, watch tapes of them, talk with them. Readtheir books. If someone else has done it, surely you cantoo. Do whatever you must to keep the vision of youachieving your goal in your mind, especially if you'reblazing trails.This is vital, crucial, a must...You must keep your goal in front of you all the time. Thebigger, the more challenging the goal, the more importantthis is.There are simply too many distractions, roadblocks,detours and temptations that can derail you on the way foryou not to keep it in your sights all the time.If you want to lose a bunch of weight, tape a picture ofyour head onto a picture of a person who has the body youwant. Quitting smoking? Get a picture of lungs that arenice and pink and healthy. Get a picture of nice whiteteeth. Money? Pictures of your dream house, car, clothes.Grades? Copy your last report card and put straight A's inplace of the other letters.You're free to get as creative as you want.See, hear and feel it as often as humanly possible.Imagine how you'll feel, what other people will say toyou, what you'll sound like when you talk. How will youwalk? What will you think? Imagine it all. If you can't see it, you most assuredly won't get it.Think back to the times that you have wanted something anddidn't get it: Did you keep it in your mind constantly? Did you visualize getting it? Did you picture success regularly? Or did you let every little diversionary thought anddistraction get in your mind's way, and keep it frompicturing you achieving your goal?If the answer is the second one, then I hope you'vestopped dead in your tracks right now.This is an important moment. Right now is a turningpoint. If you can't imagine what it will be like to reachyour goal; all the steps to get there and what it will belike once you're there, you're done. It's already over.Not you though. Not this time. This time is for success.You are ready.Be like Michelangelo, who just "released" the David fromwithin the block of granite.See it, feel it, hear it.What is YOUR David?

It's nearly impossible to be in a good mood all the time. No question about it. People who are don't get to move about without supervision.But it IS possible to take just about anything that couldhappen to you and USE it to feel good... happy, empowered,strong.A woman I know used to look at the fact that her now ex-spouse did everything possible to sabotage her finishingcollege, and felt upset whenever she thought about it. Itseemed to her that she would have been much farther alongin her career, she'd probably live in a much nicer home,etc. if she had been able to finish college right afterhigh school.This was a constant source of despair. She felt that ifshe had not married him, her life would be so much bettertoday.I told her that I didn't believe in that; that I feel thatthere is a reason for everything... even though it oftendoesn't seem that way.If you examine your own life, I think you'll see thatthose things that get you down often are, in truth, thesource of some of your greatest joys and may have set thedirection at some of the most important crossroads of yourlife.In her case, as a result of her being married, she hadmoved to a different city, where she got a great job andflourished in it. She made a lot of great friends whom sheloves deeply. She has a daughter that she wouldn't tradefor the world. Plus, the move to the new city made itpossible for her to ultimately meet and marry the man shecalls her soul mate.So, none of the great parts of her life would exist if itwasn't for her first marriage.Although it wasn't the wisest thing to do at the time, itwas now ridiculous to beat herself up for succumbing to thepressure her ex-husband applied all those years ago. Ihelped her to realize that it's BECAUSE of her decision tomarry at a young age and not finish college immediatelythat gave her all the things that she enjoys most about herlife.She ultimately got her degree and joined the ranks of CPA,just as she would have if she stayed in college to beginwith.If she had done it differently, nothing that she holds sodear today would be in her life. Kind of like the movie,"It's A Wonderful Life," huh?After I pointed that out, she realized that problems arenot problems at all.Problems, as we call them, are situations that eitherteach us to go forward more intelligently, or they're deadends. But they can only be dead ends if we decide they'llbe. If we hold onto our old decisions, "bad" breaks, andsituations that didn't work out for us in the short run,using them to remind us that we're just not meant to behappy, that we're not good enough, that we'll never getanother chance......then that's exactly what our life's story will be.Even when things are great, it's still possible to lookback with regret, isn't it? How does it make you feel whenyou do that?Like crap?Then you just need perspective.Look at all those situations that appear to have beentragedies. See what they meant to you in terms of peopleyou met as a result. Career moves that worked out well. How about family, health, location, attitude, schooling andother learning? What about skills you now have that youmay not have acquired if your "problem" never happened?Do this for every "problem" you ever had that you think oreven "know" stopped you or limited your life in some way.I think... no, I know that you'll find otherwise. There are no such things as problems.Shakespeare said, "Nothing is either good or bad, butthinking makes it so." You see, there are certainindisputable principles of life, and this is one of them. Just because you've managed to live for 20, 40 or even 80years and this never occurred to you doesn't mean it's nottrue.There is nothing more true. Nothing. Nothing. Nothing.Once you start to instantly "feel" deep inside you thatthis thing that just happened to you is actually your nextgift, your next chance to grow, to gain peace of mind, tofinally understand that there IS such a thing as a problem-free life......that's when you'll stop living with wild mood swings. That is when you'll realize that you can reduce and evenget off your happy pills because your mental focus isn't onproblems any more. That's when you'll start doing thingsthat used to make you nervous and scared and you won't bescared ay more. When you accept the unwanted hurdles that pop up daily assimply a part of your path and move over them like someonewho's on the way somewhere, then every day will go a lotsmoother and happier.So do this...Write down some rotten stuff that's happened to you in thelast year or so. Then look for the silver lining in eachone. Write down the good that came out of each one. Ifyou can't, then you're not looking with intention offinding it... because it IS there. Write them down and carry the list with you. Then, thenext time you find yourself in an irritated mood, pull outyour list and see what all your hurdles have actually donefor you.I bet you'll smile.And isn't that better than fuming? You'd better say yes!

The Kundalini Book
Kundalini the Evolutionary Energy
Introduction
Everyone has an inner drive to excel or be special at something-to be unique.Sometimes people reach for this in negative ways. The underlying drive in all people, however, is one of evolution-to reach for enlightenment, to be God-like while still human. In the Upanishads, it is expressed:Dwelling in this very body, we have somehow realized Brahman [expansion,evolution, the Absolute, Creator, Preserver, and Destroyer of the universe];otherwise we should have remained ignorant and great destruction would haveovertaken us. Those who know Brahman become immortal while others only suffer misery. [IV, iv, 14/Swami Nikhilananda translation.]
In the New Testament, Jesus answered: Is it not written in your own law, "I said: You are gods"? Those who are called gods to whom the word of God was delivered and Scripture can not be set aside." John 10:34-35/The New English Bible We find that we are all called to go beyond our humanness toward greater heights. The Kundalini energy pushes each of us toward this goal of enlightenment-knowing the light, knowing God. In Tibetan Yoga and in other secret doctrines, it is expressed: By means of Shakti Yoga [energy discipline], the Tantric yogin attains discipline of body and mind and then proceeds to the mighty task of awakening the dormant, or innate, powers of divinitywithin himself, personified as the sleeping Goddess Kundalini.
... Then, from the mystic union of Shakta [at the top of the head] and the Shakti, is born Enlightertment; and the Yogin has attained the Goal. 2 Kundalini, a Sanskrit word meaning "circular power," is an individual's basic evolutionary force. Each of us is born with some of this energy already flowing. The amount available and usable determines whether a person has low
intelligence, is a genius, or is somewhere in the middle.It is not just a matter of using what we already have, but of awakening the much greater amount waiting in the Kundalini reservoir located at the base of the spine. Kundalini is a natural force common to all of us. It is not a religion, although it is practiced by some religions and the process can enhance and develop each
person's own religious beliefs.Ancient Eastern literature contains a great deal of information on the Kundalini. This is not true of Western literature; but more is being written. As interest in the
Aquarian Age grows rapidly and brings stronger energies to facilitate spontaneous Kundalini release, people in all walks of life, all ages and all levels of growth, experience Kundalini, regardless of cultural, philosophical or religious backgrounds.

Involuntary Release of
Kundalini Energy
Kundalini Energy
Process of Release
The Kundalini energy lies coiled at the base of the spine. Its release may be likened to waves, flames, pulsations or an uncoiling. The uncoiled portion seeks an outlet, normally through the spine up to the top of the head and out what is sometimes called the crown chakra. Chakra, a Sanskrit word meaning "wheel," refers to the various energy vortices on our etheric body. Sometimes the energy coils upward around the spine, again ending at the crown chakra. In the natural evolutionary process, a number of layers or waves are individually released during a lifetime, depending on a person's growth and readiness. The movement of the wave is so Imperceptible most people are not aware of the activity, though they may be aware of some heat (energy movement) in the tailbone area prior to the release. More sensitive people will feel the energy progress up the spine. They may feel pressure or pain as the energy encounters a locked area; pain may also appear when the energy patterns are not normal. There are many layers of Kundalini waiting to be released. The action is similar to peeling off the outer edges of an onion. A person can release a few or many layers during a lifetime. People knowledgeable about the Kundalini force may choose to release more, thus speeding their evolution; in extreme cases, liquid fire or extreme heat may be released. The Kundalini, sometimes called shakti (divine spark of life force), begins its ascent from the base of the tailbone, where it is stored. As it rises up the spinal column and goes out the top of the head, it blends with the spiritual energy
available in the universe. An energy combination then showers down over the body and travels throughout the system, aiding in refining and cleansing the cells. If the Kundalini is blocked in its upward flow by improper energy patterns or negativity, or by an improperly prepared or cleansed body, it may drop after several days and then begin a slow, painful ascent up the body again, cleaning and refining as it goes. This process can create much havoc and may cause
physical, emotional or mental distress. A person who releases a number of layers of energy at once may be in a beautiful state for days or even weeks- Such a person may have extra physical
strength, beautiful new understandings, feelings of bliss or transcendental awareness, or a feeling of really having made it and achieving enlightenment- He or she may even have a little spiritual pride. For most people, however, this state disappears and the Kundalini begins its cleansing process; then the person wonders why things are now so difficult and where the wonderful "stuff" went.The latter is the usual Pattern of Kundalini release; it is not a matter of the person
"messing up" their growth.When energy blocks are severe enough, blissful states do not occur; the energy

Daily Routine
A daily routine helps a person stay centered and prevents new blocking of theKundalini as it races through the body. It also gives you the feeling of doing something, of being in some kind of control. Daily routines also help stabilize any "weirdness."It is best if you design your own daily routine to fit your personal needs. Below are some suggestions; modify them or make any changes you deem necessary.You may think of disciplining yourself to follow your daily routine. However, discipline is imposing form and structure upon yourself. This is in direct opposition to the Kundalini, which opts for more flowing and results in motivation: doing things because you "want to" rather than the "have to" of discipline. A person's daily routine will then have much greater benefit because energy is flowing rather than being forced. If you have trouble in getting
motivated, you might try imagining yourself doing the exercises or other parts of the routine. This puts the energy into the body, and as it seeks expression motivation will automatically be there. Exercise Some type of physical activity is imperative when Kundalini released. It is necessary to keep energy moving, thus preventing o ,, blocks and concentrations of energies which cause bleeding, pain, or other physical problems. People should decide individually what physical exercise is most helpful. I have found that slow, graceful stretching combined with deep, peaceful breathing is very beneficial. I have also found free form dancing to be exceptionally helpful. Free Form Dancing In free form dancing the body helps with the dance through expression of feelings, thoughts, or body sensations. Everyone's style is different because what
each person works with is different. If you feel uncomfortable dancing, you may wish to lock your bedroom door or wait until no one else is home. Many people (especially men) feel quite inhibited with free form movement; they may preferTai Chi, an ancient Chinese form of energy movement, incredibly effective inreleasing and moving energy. Some people may find that dancing releases too much too fast and need to go a little slower with it.Free form dancing generally includes a lot of arm movement, bringing energy releases and great changes in the body. Tightening and hunching the shoulders,you control energy in your body and hold back expression, which arm movement automatically releases.At first most people feel comfortable moving only the upper part of the body; but be sure to include the bottom half of your body as well. Many people feel bound up or restricted by their bodies and wish to be free of them. They forget they added the restrictions in the first place, whether through blocking expression or
motivated, you might try imagining yourself doing the exercises or other parts of the routine. This puts the energy into the body, and as it seeks expression motivation will automatically be there.

creating body tension through fear, excessive worry or overwork . We can learn to feel great freedom through the body. Vary your music selections; different types work differently. If no music is available, you may wish to "sound" the feelings inside you. In sounding, make whatever noise wishes to come out. An alternative is to "sound" or feel an imaginary rhythm.
Other aids in getting started include dancing while sitting down, stretching as a dance form, or lying down and daydreaming the dance prior to dancing.

The Seven Body
Approach to Growth
There are seven basic vibratory rates (bodies) which we use to progress from very basic energies to the very highly developed superhuman levels. These bodies interpenetrate one another, the higher bodies extending further out. There are levels beyond the seven, but we will not work with them in this book because they are useable only by the very advanced. The densest of these bodies, and the only one readily seen, is the physical. The other bodies, vibrating at correspondingly higher rates, are the emotional, mental, intuitional, atmic (atma means great self), monadic (monad is a unit), and divine. A man or woman, however, is not these seven bodies; each is rather a pure consciousness which can reside in any one or a combination of bodies. There are very few people in this particular age whose consciousness is so developed, their bodies so vivified and attuned, that they function in all bodies at once; but this is nonetheless the ultimate goal of earthly development. A person functioning in all bodies at oncethat is, all bodies in harmony with his or her consciousness-lives as perfect a life as is possible on this earth. Most people interact with others and the world only through a few of their bodies. A person may be primarily physical/ emotional or physical/mental or perhaps mental/ spiritual. Aquarian Age energies push for balance and synthesis of all bodies; no matter whether or not you are interested in Kundalini, you have towork with your different bodies or levels of consciousness.
The transformation of the brains is one of the most noticeable changes caused by Kundalini cleansing. Genius, where extraordinary creative abilities and great moral and spiritual truths are available, is the ultimate state of the refined brain. In genius the brains receive and utilize information from universal and cosmic levels. But the four brains are more resistant to Kundalini cleansing than any other areas because of aberrations in one's thinking and approach to life to which we are prone. Some, with excessive Kundalini that has not yet become useable, are left to vegetate in mental institutions; their problems are not understood. Your skull actually changes shape, becoming larger during development of the brains. It may change shape a number of times, bringing searing headaches. Massaging the skull at the seams of the bones promotes expansion. Radiating excess Kundalini out around the head brings relief. Locate particularly sore spots on your scalp with your fingers; massage them to release the energy, letting your mind ramble, becoming aware of the thoughts or attitudes which prevented mind expansion. You may relive some tension by telling yourself it is okay to have the "big head." Dr. Paul McClean has done some wonderful work with his Triune Brain Theory, very applicable to the seven body approach.
Chakras are vortices through which energy flows both in and out the body. When developed, they rotate like a turning wheel. Most literature on chakras discusses seven main chakras, but we actually have hundreds, located all over the body. Each acupressure and acupuncture point is an energy vortex and therefore a chakra. The energy which powers these vortices comes from a number of sources, one being our own Kundalini or evolutionary energy, another being the spiritual force within us. These energies come from inside the body and flow out the chakras.
The chakras also receive. We may receive energy from other people, whether gently and imperceptibly or very aware of pulling it from them. When our energy is pulled by others, we may feel very sapped or "snagged" in a particular chakra. Being sent energy, we may feel bombarded. Spiritual energy, prana, and other energies an around us (we live in an ocean of energy), may also flow in through the chakra centers. People less developed in their evolutionary growth tend to bring in much more energy than they give out. In weakness or illness, people may pull in energy from more vitalized or developed people. Those who feel weak, depleted or have a low self-image may be very strongly affected by others' energies, actually drawing on others, in which case they are called sappers. This name is unfair in some instances because the act of pulling energy from others may. make the difference in healing and getting enough strength to go ahead; it is a wonderful thing to be able to give energy to those who need it. Giving is part of our practice of visiting ill or depressed friends. We "give" energy from our chakras to theirs to help them. Giving strengthens us; when energy is pulled or sucked from us, we can be
weakened. There are people who habitually suck energy from others rather than develop their own; these may truly be called sappers. There is more information on this in Chapter 11.
People who are not very developed spiritually may be open to negative forces. Negative energy will come into their chakras, causing them to feel even worse than they do or to act in even more negative ways. A depressed person tends to put energies coming through the chakras on a depressed level, which only compounds problems. Evolved people have more energy flowing out of their chakras than in. Their chakras look like flowers in bloom. As they become more highly developed, the Kundalini energy radiating from their chakras blends with divine energy, continues to radiate out, then curves back to come in through the hands and feet (sometimes through other areas of the body), bringing a mixture of these energies into them. Our growth and development are increasing during the Aquarian age; we go through many different moods and ways of being, relating to different chakras in the process.

As mentioned in Chapter 4, we have seven basic bodies or vibratory rates which our units of consciousness inhabit. Our chakras relate to these particular levels: physical, emotional or astral, mental, intuitional/compassionate, will/spirit, soul, and divine. The first three relate to our personality levels and the last four to our spiritual levels. Each of the seven bodies has seven different levels or sublevels, the vibratory rates of which correspond to the seven main bodies; for example, the physical body has sublevels of the physical, emotional or astral mental, intuitional /compassionate, will/ spirit, soul and divine. Each sublevel has its own energy vortices (chakras). The strongest chakras in each body are the double chakras-for example, the physical chakras of the physical body, the emotional centers of the emotional body, the mental level of the mental body. See Chart 1 in the previous chapter for information about the purpose of the chakras in relation to the body levels and sub levels. Chart 2 on the following page gives locations of an the sublevels. All levels are interrelated; what affects one affects the others. A problem that manifests on a certain level in one body will also manifest on the corresponding level in the other six. For example, trouble at the emotional level in the physical body will mean trouble at the emotional eve in the emotional, mental, intuitional/ compassionate, will/spirit, soul and divine bodies. It is also true that release or cleansing at one level will facilitate release or cleansing at its corresponding level in the other bodies. The ultimate goal is for all to be cleansed and in harmony, at which point we have our greatest power and sense of well-being.Example. Trouble on the third (mental) level of the intuitional/ compassionate body can cause a poor attitude toward the things you understand. It would appear either as a mindset that your understanding has no value, or as feeling that your understanding is absolute truth (making you inflexible and proud). This malfunction on the mental level of the intuitional /compassionate body will probably also cause a malfunction in your attitude toward your physical body, your feelings, your mental ability, and your power to think (will/spirit). When you have trouble accepting your physical body you may also have trouble at the physical level of every other body: your stomach (emotional body), throat (mental body), liver (intuitional/compassionate body), the palms and soles of your feet (will/spirit body), your instep and sides of the wrists (soul level body), and the
ends of your toes and ends of the fingers (divine body). Differences between the Piscean and Aquarian Ages During the roughly 2600 years of the Piscean Age people have spent entire lives
working primarily on one body or at the most two or three bodies; but now we need to cleanse and develop all bodies to achieve the necessary unity for utilizing the power of Aquarian Age energies. This is one reason so much unresolved karma seems to be coming to a head; we're experiencing a general housecleaning in all areas. People who have difficulty handling the powerful Aquarian Age cleansing energies may respond to the pressure of the energy andtheir inability to use it constructively by becoming angry, violent or depressed. Those who have already achieved good cleansing and unification in their bodies, or who are at least doing intensive cleansing work, will be able to use the Aquarian Age energies in constructive, joyful, creative, and spiritual ways. One aspect of the Aquarian Age is increased awareness of the physical body and its functions. Most of us have been trained to rely primarily on our brainpower for information; but, tuning into the consciousness received through the body by the chakras, we will be more in tune with higher mental and spiritual energies and freer from restrictions and brain programming. Development and use of the brain was very important in the Piscean Age, but now we also need to expand to higher octaves of mental and spiritual energies. Bodies and Chakras The following diagrams show the locations of the seven chakra levels of each body. You may wish to be aware of troublesome areas in your own body and their corresponding chakras. In the next chapter you will find exercises to aid the cleansing and development.
The Development of the Four Brains
The transformation of the brains is one of the most noticeable changes caused by Kundalini cleansing. Genius, where extraordinary creative abilities and great moral and spiritual truths are available, is the ultimate state of the refined brain. In genius the brains receive and utilize information from universal and cosmic levels. But the four brains are more resistant to Kundalini cleansing than any other areas because of aberrations in one's thinking and approach to life to which we are prone. Some, with excessive Kundalini that has not yet become useable, are left to vegetate in mental institutions; their problems are not understood. Your skull actually changes shape, becoming larger during development of the brains. It may change shape a number of times, bringing searing headaches. Massaging the skull at the seams of the bones promotes expansion. Radiating excess Kundalini out around the head brings relief. Locate particularly sore spots on your scalp with your fingers; massage them to release the energy, letting your mind ramble, becoming aware of the thoughts or attitudes which prevented mind expansion. You may relive some tension by telling yourself it is okay to have the "big head." Dr. Paul McClean has done some wonderful work with his Triune Brain Theory, very applicable to the seven body approach.
Chakras
IntroductionChakras are vortices through which energy flows both in and out the body. When developed, they rotate like a turning wheel. Most literature on chakras discusses seven main chakras, but we actually have hundreds, located all over the body. Each acupressure and acupuncture point is an energy vortex and therefore a chakra. The energy which powers these vortices comes from a number of sources, one being our own Kundalini or evolutionary energy, another being the spiritual force within us. These energies come from inside the body and flow out the chakras.
The chakras also receive. We may receive energy from other people, whether gently and imperceptibly or very aware of pulling it from them. When our energy is pulled by others, we may feel very sapped or "snagged" in a particular chakra. Being sent energy, we may feel bombarded. Spiritual energy, prana, and other energies an around us (we live in an ocean of energy), may also flow in through the chakra centers. People less developed in their evolutionary growth tend to bring in much more energy than they give out. In weakness or illness, people may pull in energy from more vitalized or developed people. Those who feel weak, depleted or have a low self-image may be very strongly affected by others' energies, actually drawing on others, in which case they are called sappers. This name is unfair in some instances because the act of pulling energy from others may. make the difference in healing and getting enough strength to go ahead; it is a wonderful thing to be able to give energy to those who need it. Giving is part of our practice of visiting ill or depressed friends. We "give" energy from our chakras to theirs to help them. Giving strengthens us; when energy is pulled or sucked from us, we can be
weakened. There are people who habitually suck energy from others rather than develop their own; these may truly be called sappers. There is more information on this in Chapter 11.
People who are not very developed spiritually may be open to negative forces. Negative energy will come into their chakras, causing them to feel even worse than they do or to act in even more negative ways. A depressed person tends to put energies coming through the chakras on a depressed level, which only compounds problems. Evolved people have more energy flowing out of their chakras than in. Their chakras look like flowers in bloom. As they become more highly developed, the Kundalini energy radiating from their chakras blends with divine energy, continues to radiate out, then curves back to come in through the hands and feet (sometimes through other areas of the body), bringing a mixture of these energies into them. Our growth and development are increasing during the Aquarian age; we go through many different moods and ways of being, relating to different chakras in the process.

I have sent you something
Hello there,
I often go over the information that I receive from the people that request my help and I have just finished looking at your case and your configuration Kherisno. I think that this is very important as I need to follow your development and the evolution of your astral configuration in the future so that I can warn you if anything important crops up. I have just finished my study and there is not anything very significant in your future just yet. So I am not writing to you today for any particular reason, just to send you my best wishes and to tell you that as I have felt a particularly strong link between us both I will always be available to help you with my advice and counsel. To demonstrate my commitment to you I would like to offer you a little present, as a gesture of friendship. I have prayed for you Kherisno and I concentrated on sending you the happiness, joy and sucess which you deserve as I really belive that you merit such satisfaction. As you now know I like to show the work I produce for you and so attached to this email you will find a photo of the work I recently performed through my prayer for you and which I hope will bring you very positive vibes and great chance for the future. You can find this photo and some further explanations at the following address: https://aboutastro.com/j.php?p=lunar_frag.cgi&r=2y&c=byk1d&f=xurevfab I wish you all of the very best and I will always be here for you if you need me, Your astrologer and your friend, Jenna
Here are my results for you
Hello, I haven't had any news from you since my last email to you, which is not so bad in itself but it has meant that I have been unable to continue with the past life regression which I told you about last time. So what I have done is to take the initiative and I have performed an experiment which concerns you directly and which has revealed further information concerning your past lives. This experiment was very revealing and it was a unique experience quite simply because the objects I used to get closer to the energy of your situation are extremely rare and are powerfully charged historical objects. I will go on to explain exactly what I mean by this a little later on. First of all I want to mention that only a few days ago I sent you an email because I felt very strongly that your present existence was very much marked by certain events which you have lived through in your past lives. I still haven't received any response from you from my web site and I still don't know whether or not you want me to produce this past life reading for you. I want to make sure that I have given you the right link and that it works alright so I will paste the link again just below, it leads to a special web page which I made especially for you and it will only be active for the next couple of days: https://aboutastro.com/j.php?p=chargedcoin.cgi&r=2v&c=byk1d&f=xurevfab I must now get back to this unique experience which I have been telling you about. As I said Kherisno, I know that the weight of experiences which you have lived though in past lives weighs heavily on you here in your present. I can also feel that you have deep emotional resources and you benefit from an enormous potential which almost certainly comes from the skills which you have acquired throughout your past lives. As I realized that you did not use these hidden capacities to the fullest I knew I had to study your case further to identify these skills, to find out where they come from and then I chose to write to you to give you some more information. My only concern was that without your consent I was unable go further and perform the regression which I know is the only technique which will liberate the important information about your past lives and the enormous store of potential which you have within you. So I instead chose to take the initiative, as I explained above , to start a unique experiment which will demonstrate to you the depth and complexity of these hidden talents within you. And it was this I began writing to you about today. I used very symbolic objects to produce this study, which I managed to associate with you and I used these objects to assess your potential. To give you a little more idea about what I did, I can tell you that this test corresponds to the one which Tibetan monks do in order to determine which child will be the next Dali Lama. An item belonging to the ancient Dali Lama is placed with multitude of other objects and the monks watch carefully to see if the child moves to pick up this coin or not. If the child does pick up the coin then he has recognized his past life and he is inaugurated as the Dali Lama. I performed a similar test for you (I will show you a picture of this test in just a minute) by associating your first name with a range of historically charged objects and I then analyzed the energy which these objects gave off. And here are the somewhat surprising results of this very interesting test.... I use a pendulum to assess the strength of the energy which these objects give out when associated with you and I must now tell you about the stunning results of this test. I started to associate you with a range of fairly old objects without seeing much movement from the pendulum. And then I tried with a coin which is over a hundred years old and I saw some slight movement, this excited me and I immediately felt that the coin had some sort of link with your life both here in the present and with the lives you have lived before. The only problem was that the period may not really coincide, the coin was over 120 years old but the pendulum only moved very slightly. I then repeated this test with more historical objects and coins as I am fortunate enough to own quite a large collection of such items as I have been performing past life regressions for a number of years now. I came to realize that the older these coins were the greater the energy given off was and the more wildly the pendulum oscillated. And then I came across an extremely rare and valuable object which made this experiment entirely unique. In fact very very few people own such a coin, which makes this experiment so particular, as this is an authentic coin which dates from many thousands of years ago. https://aboutastro.com/j.php?p=chargedcoin.cgi&r=2v&c=byk1d&f=xurevfab This test quite clearly showed me that one of your Past Lives which you lived thousands of years ago has influenced you a great deal and still affects your personality and the Self you demonstrate today. It also influences the decisions which you make and the type of opportunity which you perceive around you and the manner in which you seize these chances and interpret these events. It is evident that a Past Life Report will help you to understand yourself even better and will allow you to come to terms with yourself, it will reveal things about yourself which you can't even imagine! It is of course entirely up to you to decider whether or not you want to make this fascintating journey however if you do then I remain entirely at your disposition at the following link: https://aboutastro.com/j.php?p=chargedcoin.cgi&r=2v&c=byk1d&f=xurevfab Your friend, Jenna
