These stunning dresses are the work of Kola Art & Design. You can buy both from the online store. They’re a great idea and look fabulous. My only concern is that these styles won’t suit every body shape but I suppose few dresses do. Disclaimer: I’m no expert.

Zodiacal criminals – Aries most likely to commit a crime

January 15, 2012 by Andrew Leave a Comment

In Canada, the Chatham-Kent Police kept a note of the star sign of some 1,986 people arrested in 2011.

According to the police’s survey; if you are an Aries then you’re most likely to commit a crime – or, at least, be arrested by the Chatham-Kent police. Libra are second most likely and Virgo come in at third place.

Who are least likely to commit a crime and be arrested by the Canadian police? Sagittarius are least likely and Aquarius second least likely and Taurus third least likely.

In Pure Spirit

Are you surprised by any of these placements? Or does this research by Chatham-Kent seem to be about right based on your experience?

The Chinese zodiac in crayon

March 21, 2010 by Andrew Leave a Comment

These ordinary crayons have been gracefully carved into the 12 symbols of the Chinese zodiac.

The artist behind this clever feat is Diem Chau. She normally works in other materials but I’m glad she made a colourful exception with these crayons.

In Pure Spirit

What do you think? Aren’t they as beautiful as they are clever?

Tropical dates: 22 December to 20 January
Sidereal dates: January 15 to February 12 (approx)
Representation: Goat’s head with fish tail
Ruling planet and groupings: Saturn; feminine, cardinal and earth
Associations:

  • Colour: Dark colours
  • Flowers: Pansy and ivy
  • Gemstone: Amethyst
  • Trees: Pine and willow

Traits
It is not uncommon to find people talking about two types of Capricorns; both tend to be patient and practical, one tends to have a stronger drive for success and happiness. Capricorns are also sometimes known for being mean but this streak is as often directed at themselves as it is other people.

Family
Capricorns are prone to finding marriage later on in life and once the career path is firmly plotted. However, Capricorns make good partners and provide well for their partner and family. One thing to note is that Capricorns can be awfully strict as parents but will make whichever sacrifice is necessary to help their child progress.

Business
Capricorns work well by themselves and often have an aptitude for science. Capricorns are very independent at work and sometimes isolationist.  Capricorns can make good leaders but can also be very slow to accept advice or help. It is usual to find Capricorns working for local authorities, government, publishing or finance.

What’s your experience with Capricorns? How would you describe them?

Tropical dates: 23 July to 23 August
Sidereal dates: 17 August to 16 September (approx)
Representation: Lion’s tail
Ruling planet and groupings: Sun; masculine, fixed and fire
Associations:

  • Colour: Gold and scarlet
  • Flowers: Marigold
  • Gemstone: Ruby
  • Trees: Walnut and olive

Traits
Proud, generous and creative. Leonians often need to keep themselves in check less they suffer from hubris or simply become overbearing. Leonians commonly find themselves in the role of managers or organises and they take to this with gusto and style. Leonians can also be quick to anger and sometimes prone to panics should plans go badly wrong.  These negative traits and the signature Leo trait of impatience are all countered by the Leonian positive outlook and upbeat nature.

Family
In a relationship Leonians are caring and kind but that urge to lead does not go away. There is the risk that they may seem to be domineering.  Criticism often does not go down well. Leonians will bend over backwards to ensure their children are happy but can be rather traditional.

Business
Leo individuals are hard workers but some will also be attracted to glamour and luxury. It is common to find Leonians in sports or physical jobs but also working with jewels and precious items. Leonians can make good bosses, expecting the very best but being willing to reward hard work generously.

Cancer
Image via Wikipedia

Tropical dates: 21 June to 22 July
Sidereal dates: 16 July to 15 August (approx)
Representation: Breasts
Ruling planet and groupings: Moon; feminine, cardinal and water
Associations:

  • Colour: Silver
  • Flowers: White rose, Lily
  • Gemstone: Pearl
  • Trees: none

Traits
A typical Cancerian is protective, often stubborn and sometimes moody. Cancerians have highly attuned intuition and reliable decision making skills and reactions however they are also prone to worrying too much. Cancerians can be very quick to pick up information but also habits from others. It’s certainly worth noting that just like the crab Cancerians can project a hard outer shell but be soft and sensitive on the inside.

Family
Cancerians are very good home-makers; they have a caring nature and look for long term relationships. However, Cancerians might also be accused of being too clingy and sometimes too quick to snap. Cancerians tend to look backwards and reminisce rather than forward and look forward to significant changes like a new house. On a similar note, Cancerians tend to prefer to live near close friends and immediate family and may be slightly cautious of new faces and influences.

Business
When a diplomat or mediator is needed then few do better than a Cancerian. Cancerians can put their skills to work in most jobs although there may always be that reluctance to change.

In Pure Spirit

If you only had three words to describe a typical Cancerian what would they be?
