Personal Daily Horoscope of Sunday, 13 December 2009
for Dayna Sternberg, born 20 March 1971

Fun and joy
Valid during several weeks: During this time, you feel most free to express yourself and to be yourself. Your primary drive is to do what you want and as much as possible to set your own priorities. You are not especially interested in dominating others, although you may be capable of it at this time, but you will vigorously oppose anyone who tries to prevent you from doing what you want to do. Your attitude toward your relationships is much lighter at this time, almost as if you saw your relationships as a stage upon which you can perform. At any rate, you favor more than usual the relationships that are fun. This is the time to be yourself, but it also is the time to become conscious of who you are. It is one thing to be yourself; it is another to know yourself. You can use this time for both.

The interpretation above is for your transit:

I have decided to stop sowing my seeds in barren, fallow fields.
I waste too much time tending to crops that yield no fruit and wither in the vine.

Personal Daily Horoscope of Friday, 6 November 2009
for DS, born 20 March 1971

Personal desires

This is a time for making plans about your personal life and for thinking about your goals and objectives, not in terms of your career but in terms of your inner feelings and personal desires. Often the demands of the outside world become so great that we lose track of what we really want in life and spend our time trying to live up to someone else's expectations. Even worse, we internalize those expectations and convince ourselves that they are our own. Now is a good time to cut through all of those ideas within yourself and to think about what you want and about yourself as you really are. On a more external level, this is also a good time to make plans concerning your household and family or the physical dwelling that you live in. Also, buying or looking for real estate is favored during this time.

So- we (the ex and I) had decided to stay in this apartment month to month until Feb and then get a two bedroom and remain roommates. I get a letter from the management company that they expect an extra $50 a month if you don't sign a new 12 month lease. If you do- rent goes down from our current $905 to $885- which is actually what we pay for rent and the $905 is the extra $20 for my parking spot. THEN- they have an ad on Craigslist for an apartment here for $775 a month. WTF!! So- you lose good people- who pay rent on time and are quiet and have never had any complaints. This doesn't make any business sense to me- as they have had several apartments sitting empty. I am going to talk to the on-site managers and see what the deal is. Oh- the ad also says the unit has a D/W and a fireplace...ours doesn't...

SO- I hate the thought of moving around the holidays- which given my line of work- start Nov 1st. But it looks like the universe is forcing my hand.

Seattle folks- if you know of any 2 bedroom, cat friendly apartments that are for rent- let me know.

for D, born 20 March 1971

Evasive maneuvers
During this time it may well be that you hide yourself away somewhere to avoid having to deal with the tension between your desires and your anxieties. Or perhaps you give in to your desire, but only half- heartedly, so that you get only half of something in the end, which is not what you actually wanted. This quality of time can indicate where your difficulties lie, i.e. in acknowledging your desires and completely giving yourself up to certain experiences. You will perhaps ascertain that this has to do with an insecurity or feeling of inadequacy of yours. That is why you should find out which experiences you actually avoid - then you can make a conscious effort to share these experiences with an understanding, sympathetic person who will not injure you anew.

Personal Daily Horoscope of Saturday, 3 October 2009 for Dayna Sternberg, born 20 March 1971
Creative Activity
This is a good time for any kind of creative activity. If you are active in a creative field, you should be unusually productive today. Under any circumstances this is a good time to get involved with the arts or any other activity concerning beauty. It is also an excellent time to redecorate your home and make your personal surroundings more attractive. Your taste for beauty is aroused, and you are much more sensitive to the aesthetic nature of your surroundings. This is also a time when you feel very affectionate and have a great need to express your affection for others. You want to give and receive love. Usually this is a very pleasant influence, because you are pleasant to be around. Others can sense how you feel about them, which makes them feel good in return.

@ 4:30am.
I should be doing something productive- like getting notes ready for the Cheese Classes I am teaching in October....

So- went to Noc Noc last night- since it was D's B-day and my girl Jane is in town. This is the first Sunday I have gone out there and gah- not what I wanted. So- Jane was asking me about where I usually go out and such and I started thinking...
I think- even though I haven't been in a few weeks- Wednesday nights @ Noc Noc are my favorite- the music is what really speaks to my soul and makes me smile. Friday's are also great and I have fun but the music doesn't trigger as many feelings and memories. The Vogue on Saturday's is overpriced and lacking in drink quality and was way too hot for the summer- I may venture back now that it is cooling off. The Merc is decent- I like the space and the music and theme nights- not a big fan of the smoking. I am also not a fan of where the dance floor is and the flow.

At a critical point
The energies in your life are reaching a culmination now. This is the time to try to bring your affairs to a climax, but do not expect to escape opposition from other people, for others have ambitions that may be in conflict with yours. Even with those aspects of your life that have been working out well and are now reaching a climax, you are not yet past the critical point. To achieve is one thing, but to incorporate these achievements into your life and make them part of your personal growth is something else. You have built structures and organized your life in various ways, and now you will experience the consequences of these structures as they begin to react and influence your life. Yet you still have the creative power to determine how your own creations will recreate you.

hmmmm....
FYI- I'm not a 100% believer in horoscopes- I do feel that they provide a good jump-off point for examining one's life and situation. They have been too close to truths too many times. I feel like there is some validity to astrology in general but I don't plan my life around it.

I haven't heard much from you lately.
How the heck are you?
Anything new in your life?

Today is like Christmas in the cheese!! My French airship arrived, new cheese from Du Village and Portneuf in Canada and the usual Friday deliveries.
Time to NOM

I still haevn't seen it...
I'm thinking of picking a night and seeing if there's a group of us that would like to go.
Any interest?

Rain, rain, hard rain!! This is the weather I moved to Seattle for! Soft rain, hard rain,grey skies, crisp mornings!!
I sat outside on the deck last night in the dark and enjoyed the rain.
love! love!

Not that I expect too many of you to share my love of silent movies...
BUT- The Paramount will be starting up silent movie nights on Mondays in November. I plan on going to all of them this time around. Let me know if you want to join me.

Personal Daily Horoscope of Thursday, 3 September 2009

Satisfying experience

This influence can bring with it a deeply satisfying, liberating experience; perhaps you will simply enjoy yourself with more gusto and freedom than usual and take pleasure in life. There may be a very meaningful encounter during this time - with your partner, someone close to you, or someone whom you have never met before. This encounter will be so deep and personal that you will have the opportunity to perceive and possibly even discuss things about yourself that you have preferred to suppress up to now, and not reveal to anyone. Thus, you have the chance to behave differently and, for once, to act out of character and acknowledge your injury or sensitivity, without having to fear being hurt or rejected once more.

Happiness- what is it? How does one find it? Are you able to hold on to it once you do?
I've been thinking about happiness and the different levels of that feeling- or perhaps they are totally other feelings? How do you know you are happy? Is happiness a form of contentment? What is joy?

What do you think?
Please share.

I was so very excited when I arrived at work on Saturday and saw...people from my old store in CO outside roasting REAL hatch chili peppers. OMG- so yummy! I will be making a batch of green chili and perhaps tamales sometime soon.


Allrighty Seattle People...Why don't I hear crickets or cicadas here? Do we really not have any living in all this lush green plant life? I miss the sound of crickets in the evening.

Heard this song on my way home tonight and I was thinking about how beautiful the video is and decided to share:

is Imogen Cunningham. And there was an exhibition of her work at the Seattle Art Museum. I walked out of the restroom and this is what I saw:

Currently the background on my work computer and a picture I can get lost in for hours.

Compliments are a great way to boost a person's self esteem, they can raise your spirits when you're down and just generally make a person feel good.

So... leave me a complimenting comment! Am I a good listener? A good writer? Do I have mad cooking skills? You can make my day with just a few nice words. Then, be sure to post this in your own LJ so that others can do the same for you!
