Active Rain is SAVING me Money!

Not just a little bit of money, actually a GREAT deal!  The thought just clicked as I was signing off, vowing to get OUT and do what I've been putting off.  Get OUT to enjoy this weather I've been waiting so long for!

And instead, I'm back at the computer.  I've switched addictions without even realizing it.  I'm not only getting work from AR, I was formerly an Ebay Addict.  It finally hit me that I haven't ebayed in WEEKS!  I'm thinking of all the things I didn't need, didn't know I wanted and then have to find room for when they come home :)

My latest purchase included this lovely (?) ummm....item.  I believe it's from Tibet, I believe it has something to do with a form of Astrology that incorporates The Three Lucks.  It has a Monkey, a mouse and of couse, a Dragon (Now I KNOW that's lucky).  I have no clue what it's worth (if anything) but I'm taking it to get framed (more money! :)

Thank you, ActiveRain.  For the work AND the savings! 

Tibet?While I'm here, does anyone have a CLUE what this is?

Save away! - btw I am a SNAKE for my Chinese Astrological sign - wood snake to be exact - I got into it here in Texas - there is a strong Asian influence here - I hope we're still friends after I wrote that...what sign are you?

HI Karen,

I am a horse so it's a "good" year for me.  I actually originally trained in Western Astrology and it makes MUCH more sense and is less rigid then Chinese Astrology.  I do the Chinese method when the client requests it or if I need an "aupicious" day for groundbreaking.....

One of my early examples of using Chinese astrology related to a client who's husband had been transferred to Arizona for a wonderful job opportunity.  She was selling her home and asked me a good date for her to meet him out there.  According to her Chinese astrological chart, it wasn't wise for her to move in a Southwest direction for two years!  I couldn't tell her that, her husband was out there.  According to her Western astrolgical sun sign and taking other things into account, it came up that 3 months would be a good time for her to make major changes in her life....more practical.  By the way, I am still in contact with her and things are fine!

Carole--I believe this will be a much better addiction for you. And much more productive too! Enjoy!

Hi Carole - just like anything else - in moderation.. Take the best information, process it how it can help or hurt a situation and go with your gut in most cases. Tradition and belief systems vary from person to person but it truly helps to know what another person may be thinking. I look forward to learning more from you and the group you'll be starting - is it going to be the Feng Shui Cafe? Enjoy your weekend!
