Lilith


According to Jewish Mythology,
When God created Adam, he was lonely, so God created Lilith from the same dust from which Adam was molded. But they quarrelled; Adam wished to rule over Lilith. But Lilith was also proud and willful, claiming equality with Adam because she was created from the same dust. She left Adam and fled the Garden. God sent three angels in pursuit of Lilith. They caught her and ordered her to return to Adam. She refused and swore that she'd weaken infants. The angels overpowered her, and she promised that if the mother hung an amulet over the baby bearing the names of the three angels, she would stay away from that home. So they let her go, and God created Eve to be Adam's mate [created from Adam's rib, so that she couldn't claim equality]. And ever since, Lilith flies around the world, howling her hatred of mankind through the night, and vowing vengeance because of the shabby treatment she had received from Adam.

In Astrology
A little-known element in astrology charts, Lilith is known as the "Dark Moon" and, as such, represents our "dark" or hidden emotional selves. Lilith's placement in the chart is especially important to women, and represents the power of the original woman. In a man's chart, Lilith's placement will reveal the hidden power struggles or other issues he may have, resolved or unresolved, with the women in his life.

North Node in Sagittarius


The theory behind the Nodes of the Moon suggests that we all come into this world with some underdeveloped and overdeveloped aspects of our character. The Nodes of the Moon point us to these specific qualities: the South Node suggests our overdeveloped character traits that are easy for us to fall back on, but that may undermine our lives if we hold on to these traits for security; while the North Node suggests the qualities that we need to develop in order to find inner balance.
 For those who had their North Node in Sagittarius and South Node in Gemini at birth (like me) should be affected the most during this time. The reason for this is that the North and South Node made their move into Sagittarius and Gemini on March 3, 2011 until August 29, 2012.

What we should strive to do at this time:
  • Approach life as and adventure and take risks more often in pretty much everything you do. Don't overthink decisions.
  • Move away from concerns about the day to day distractions of relationships and let go of superficial and fickle relationships.
  • Build your personality and develop a good sense of humour (if you don't already have one).
  • Travel, focus on obtaining a higher education, develop profound relationships with animals and teach people what you know.
  • Embrace life and let go of self-sabotaging frenetic, nervous energy.

5 Movies I Watched As A Kid


1. Beetlejuice


A childless couple, Barbara and Adam, move to the country only to be killed in a car accident while passing over a quaint covered bridge. Their ghosts return to their beloved Victorian home, and find the HANDBOOK FOR THE RECENTLY DECEASED, which not only lets them know they're dead, but comes in handy when they learn that they can continue to live in their house, even though a new family--from the land of the living--is moving in. The new owners, fresh from the city, are quite a strange group themselves, and include the overpowering hipster mom Delia, her pompous SoHo interior designer Otho, her meek husband Charles, and their morose teenage daughter Lydia, who befriends the ghostly couple. Though the threesome attempt to scare Delia from ruining the house with redecoration and her unpleasant personality, their attempts fail. As a last resort, they call upon the services of the demented, terrifying, but hilarious 'bioexorcist,' 'Beetlejuice'.

2. My Girl


Vada Sultenfuss is obsessed with death. Her mother is dead, and her father runs a funeral parlor. She is also in love with her English teacher, and joins a poetry class over the summer just to impress him. Thomas J., her best friend, is "allergic to everything", and sticks with Vada despite her hangups. When Vada's father hires Shelly, a makeup expert, in his funeral parlor, and begins to fall in love with her, Vada is outraged and does everything in her power to split them up.

3. Big


When a boy wishes to be big at a magic wish machine, he wakes up the next morning and finds himself in an adult body literally overnight.

4. Secret Garden

First she finds an overgrown secret garden, the favourite of her aunt and locked up since her death.

Once Mary and another new friend, local lad Dickon, have brought the garden back to life they decide Colin must see it, a decision that will change several lives.

Top 5 Attractive Men In Films

1. Chris Evans


Christopher Evans is an American actor and model. He is perhaps best known for his role in the films Not Another Teen Movie, Fantastic Four and Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer.


2. James McAvoy


James Andrew McAvoy  is a Scottish stage and screen actor known for his roles in Atonement, The Last King of Scotland, The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, Penelope, Wanted, Frank Herbert's Children of Dune, Becoming Jane, and the British TV series Shameless and Early Doors.


3. Ioan Gruffudd


Welsh Actor Ioan Gruffudd got his start at age 13 in the Welsh soap opera, "People of the Valley". At 18, he won a spot at The Royal Academy of Dramatic Art.

4. Patrick Dempsey


Actor Patrick Dempsey has lived two charming but separate lives on film and TV. From an exuberant, somewhat awkward charmer in college comedy films of the late 1980s and early 1990s, he has morphed spectacularly into a dreamy, wavy-haired TV hunk of the new-age millennium and this seductive new image has since spilled off into romantic lead roles back on the large screen as a slightly offbeat, self-effacing Prince Charming type.

5. Al Pacino


One of the greatest actors in all of film history, Al Pacino established himself during one of film's greatest decades, the 1970s, and has become an enduring and iconic figure in the world of American movies.

Last Day of School


I'll remember forever these corridors for various reasons...walks during Interval...the Overnight Camp..Special assemblies...sigh. I can't believe I've got to let go of all this and begin something completely new (College). School taught me a lot of things that I'm going to need to implement in the coming future. More importantly, It taught me about myself. I used to be a timid kid in kindergarten and I still am but it's no longer a handicap. I learnt that despite all my timidity, I was an amazing artist with a love for words and that all I needed to do was to develop those skills further. I made some very loyal friends who'd fascinate me with a variety of topics ranging from Mughal history and Architecture to Music and Love. I'm now leaving school with a heavy heart as well as a number of  precious memories to cherish, for a lifetime.

Emily Browning - Why So Intense?


Here's my analysis based on planetary positions and aspects at her time of birth.

VENUS IN SCORPIO

The woman with Venus in Scorpio attracts lovers with powerful passions. Scorpio rules sex and power; two issues with which this sign must come to terms. She becomes absorbed in life and death themes at an early age and with this placement, she sees more of it than she wants to.
As she grows, she develops a love of mystery and puzzles that takes her ever deeper into the abyss of her own nature. She can draw a fatal attraction or she become a femme fatale. She can also become a woman of powerful passions and creativity. With maturity, the Venus-in-Scorpio woman attracts partners fascinated by science, psychology and mysticism.

MOON IN SCORPIO

A Scorpio Moon produces emotional responses that are intense, secretive, and passionate. The individual must learn to handle her strong, deep feelings, as she is extremely emotional and highly sensitive. A Scorpio Moon position gives an absolutely phenomenal memory. In ways, this is very good. Yet in other ways, it designates a person who may carry a number of psyche scars from remembering, too vividly, past events that perhaps should be forgotten. This is a difficult position for the Moon as the emotions become very powerful. The individual is impatient, moody and sometimes given to brooding.

VENUS CONJUNCT PLUTO

Her emotions, particularly when it comes to feelings of love and attachment, run very deep. Her personality is magnetic, and she tends to arouse strong feelings in others, who may find her intriguing or somehow offensive! In love, she can be quite possessive and possibly obsessive. At the root of obsessive feelings are
deep fears of rejection, loss, and betrayal. Her feelings often run hot or cold--love nature is generally extreme.  She is always changed in a deep, fundamental way by her love experiences, though this may come about through painful and difficult confrontations or separations.

MOON CONJUNCT PLUTO

The conjunction of the Moon and Pluto produces an intense romantic nature. She seeks relationships with those who feel as deeply and as tenaciously as she does. She is a very possessive and demanding person, rarely impulsive or casual. It's hard for her to satisfy  emotional needs for the perfect relationship because she is so idealistic and demanding. These traits often extend to friendships, as well. Because of this your friends are few but extremely close.
