Karma, Astrology and the Laws of Attraction

On different occasions, I had introduced the ideas of karma, astrology and the laws of attraction to a friend a few months back.  We talked about manifesting our desired outcomes by opening ourselves up and sending it out the universe; and about how karma and astrology affects us.  Ended up creating confusion.

She said to me - first you tell me that we can control our own destiny but positive thinking and using the universe to manifest our desires, and now you tell that karma and our astrological chart controls us?!   Which is it!?  

She was very confused.   I wasn't really sure what to say, or rather how to explain, as I do believe in all three - Eastern Astrologer (based on science:  precise logic of math and planetary cosmic energy), karma (which I believe to related to astrology), and the laws of attraction (I've never read the book, but I have been able to manifest outcomes by opening myself up to the universe).    If you asked me about this last year, my answer would have been different.   I have just had my eyes opened in many ways the first half of this year.  

Today I just read an article online that discusses the answer to my friends question.   It discusses how the law of attraction (by Rhonda Byrne) is incomplete because it fails to discuss karma, which is a very important factor.   One cannot simply manifest any desire if your karma wont allow it.  

The article does not speak of astrology, but in my opinion, astrology is a useful tool to discover your karmas, and to minimize its effects.   With that knowledge, then one can work on a achieving a reasonable desired outcome.    It all starts with knowing yourself.   

Here is the article:

My happy posters

Just found my old posters!  Time for them to go back up!

New MAC brush set!

When I walked by the MAC counter at the Bay yesterday, I was stunned at what I saw!   I absolutely love the duo fibre brushes.  Those are the brushes with the white tips.  So, its no surprise that I was excited to see a new limited edition brush set containing only duo fibre brushes.   Now, that I think about it, I'm tempted to buy another!  Yes, I have already bought mine.  I am excited to start using them!

I love not just the look of these brushes, but also how soft and good it feels on my skin!  

The collection is called 'Beth Ditto'.  Her collection is online at maccosmetics.ca but for some reason I couldnt find the brush set collection online.   There are actually two special edition brush sets.  The other is not duo fibre.

See below.  Its kind of cool and funk with the colours on the brush holder case.

Here is the inside holding the brushes.  I haven't taken off the plastic around the brushes yet.

And what is this?

A warning label on the brush packaging.  This I did not expect.  I paid regular price for mislabelled brushes!    Something is several wrong with that!!!

I still love my new brushes, but mislabelling them and selling them at the retail level is just so very wrong.

Dynamite Stores Promotion

One of my favourite retail clothing stores is Dynamite.   The main reason for this is because I love the fit of their pants!   I have a difficult time buying pants anywhere else, that I don't even try any more.   The pants sold at Dynamite not only fit well but they also are very comfortable!

There is a promotion starting today (July 12) and goes until July 15.    See the image below.
