Your Personal Mantra And Horoscope

New! Your personal mantra based on your personal horoscope. Secrete know-how. You can not find it anywhere else. We guarantee real lasting positive effects. Calmness, health, energy, success in love and business. Your future is in your hands!

Mantras are prayers for unbelievers, who need spiritual proofs. As a start to make sure you are on the right path you can try general mantra. Aum Yeum Om. Aum means wisdom, Yeum means force and Om means love. The rhythmic variant – Aum Yeum Aum Yeum Yeum Yeum Aum Yeum Yeum Om Yeum Om Om Om Yeum Om – makes repetition and concentration easier. This general mantra gives spiritual energy to your soul and awakens your spirit.

Personal mantras give calmness and energy, needed for solving your personal problems. They can be also both contemplative and rhythmical and have their meaning too. Mantra-yoga is experimental. You need not believe it, just try.

Besides your mantra you can get analysis of your personal horoscope. One concrete question, one general theme (love, marriage, children, money, job etc.), all questions or full analysis.

You have a free choice. Your horoscope can work on different levels. It depends on you how to use your planets in your real life. Your Sun may be your personal God, or your higher Self, or your creative potential. In mantra M means the Sun, other sounds mean elements, planets and zodiac signs. Mantras ending with M lead to spiritual resurrection and growth.

Spiritual astrology interprets personal horoscopes as spiritual programs. Spiritual astrologer helps to change your bad fate by meditation and prayer. God chooses the right level of your horoscope and your problem is solved. There are transcendental aspects of planets (derived from 7, 11, 13, 17 and 19), not used by traditional non-spiritual astrologers, who do not appeal to God. Transcendental meditation with mantras switches this hidden resources and improves the chances given by your horoscope, that is your fate.

Success in business. Lord, You are our success! Repeat this prayer before any business and God will help you to succeed. Business astrology can choose the right time for meetings, talks and contracts. It is possible to compare your horoscope with horoscopes of partners to test compatibility and horoscopes of firms, companies, enterprises and state organizations to find out their attitude towards your business and your possible success. Saturn is state, laws, rules, restrictions, logic, facts, reality and results. Jupiter is responsible for business in general, for business as private initiative. Its aspects both natal and transitive show all perspectives of your business idea and problems that are waiting for you in the near and distant future. Mars is competition and taxes, Venus is money, Mercury is commerce, Sun is gold, creative energy, inspiration and impulse for work. Aspects of all these planets in the beginning of any process can determine its end. Success in business depends on this combination of planets and on its interpretation by God. Meditation and prayer change negative combinations into complex harmonious, resolving all contradictions as in music in a finale chord.

Astral wars. Wars are unavoidable. People fight for love, for money, for success. Astral wars go on invisibly between all rival companies, or nations, or civilizations. Psychic energy works through unconscious and conscious contacts at long distance. For extrasensory perception destructive energy is black, constructive energy is white. Transcendental energy looks violet, it brings tranquility, serenity and contemplation. Black rays mean threat and danger, white rays mean perspectives of cooperation.

Light analysis can warn you of hostile, unfriendly plans of all your enemies. And help you to avoid their traps, to get ready for the battles that wait you in the future. Imagine the sun emitting white rays to your head (reason), breast (feelings) and belly (will). It will restore your health and strength and give you power to win the war. Black rays should be returned to their source and should destroy your rival. Astral wars develop extrasensory perception, fighting reflexes and your will. Don’t be afraid of them, just win.

Personal defense. Lord, You are our defense! Repeat this prayer if you are threatened by criminals, rivals or enemies. Reinforce your mantra by a direct and conscious appeal to the Source of all life. If you do not believe in God or do not trust Him, meditate on the Sun. Sun, You are my force! Sun, You are my life! Sun, You are me health! Etc.

God will help you because any sun meditation is addressed to the same Source of energy and success as all prayers. You needn’t believe Him, experiment and see what you get. If the danger is neutralized and you need something else, change the last word of the prayer to express your new wish. Lord, You are our wisdom! Lord, You are our reason! Lord, you are our love! No prayer is useless, God remembers everything and answers in appropriate time. Your personal defense and success depend on your own efforts. God. You are our faith!

Aquarius. The age of Aquarius opens space and new spiritual astrology for 2 thousands years. In the southern hemisphere it is accompanied by the age of Lion, ruled by Sun. Its element is fire and its quality is inspiration, creativity and direct revelation of God. Australia is the future spiritual center of our civilization and the start of the sixth race. Its development will be in the USA and Siberia, and it will last for 13 thousands years. The planet of the sixth race is Venus, the ruler of the sixth day of the week. It gives beauty and success in love and art. The sixth race is opened by new cinema. Hollywood is only a beginning. The future films will show the reality of space as fantasy. And the Earth will enter the community of Galaxy civilizations by its art and religion of Light.

The Earth longitude is divided into 12 Zodiac sectors by 30 degrees each. Europe is Pisces (0-30), Europe Russia, Iran, Iraq and Israel are Ares (30-60), India and Siberia are Taurus (60-90), Western China and Far East are Gemini (90-120), Eastern China and Japan are Cancer (120-150), Australia and New Zeeland are Lion (150-180), Alaska is Virgin (180-210), Western Canada and The Pacific coast of the USA are Libra (210-240), The rest of Canada and USA is Scorpio (240-270) and Sagittarius (270-300), Latin America is Sagittarius (270-300) and Capricorn (300-330), England and Spain are Aquarius (330-360).

These sectors are activated by the change of eras (2155 years each). Pisces, Christianity is Europe, Ares, Judaism is Near East, Taurus, Hinduism is India etc. Now Lion is in Australia and New Zeeland, Aquarius is in Great Britain and Spain. This explains the spread of Anglo-Saxons and Spanish language in Northern and Southern America. Planets, ruling these signs are activated as in the days of the week. Sun (Lion) is the 1ST, Austroloid race, Moon (Cancer) is the 2nd, Negroid, black race, Mars (Scorpio) is the 3rd, Mongoloid red race, Mercury (Gemini) is the 4th, Mongoloid yellow race, Jupiter (Pisces) is the 5th, Europeoid, white race, Venus (Libra) is the 6th, starting race, Saturn (Capricorn) is the 7th, distant future race.

So the 6th race will reach its peak in the era of Libra on the territory of the USA. (The start is the fire sign, Lion, Australia).The 7th race will reach its peak in the era of Capricorn on the territory of Latin America. The future influences the present and these territories develop according to the qualities of the ruling planets. Hollywood is Venus (beauty and love), the ruler of the 6th race. The sector of Scorpio gives Hollywood films and actors the risk and mystery that makes them attractive all over the world. The sector of Sagittarius gives Americans luck and success.

Quick Ways To Relax In Stressful Situations

The body follows what the mind conceives. The condition of the mind often affects how the body performs, which explains why people who are stressed often suffer from accelerated aging and health problems. Follow these top 10 ways to relax and give your mind and body a good break.

1. Learn to breathe.

Breathing comes unconsciously, which sometimes encourages us to take it for granted. Several times a day, when you feel stress coming on or you feel tired and unenthusiastic, do a few deep breathing exercises. Here’s how:

Sit or stand with your spine straight and stretched slightly. Then slowly take a breath at a slow count of 3 and exhale just as slowly. Allow your lungs to expand as you take in the air and empty it as you breathe out. If it helps to close your eyes, then do so. Fresh oxygen helps enliven your blood and the slow breathing encourages you to sit or stand still for a moment.

2. Stretch.

Another way to relax is slow stretching. Whether you’re standing or seated, always keep your spine straight and allow both of your arms to dangle loosely at your side. Feet should be flat on the floor and relaxed.

Slowly raise your arms high, as if you’re reaching for the ceiling and slowly raise yourself on the ball of your feet. Follow the movement of your hands with your eyes so that your head can tilt back. Hold this position for a count of 10 and then slowly bring down your arms.

3. Increase your physical activities.

Or at least get yourself one if you haven’t got any up until now. Contrary to what other people think, exercising actually helps you relax afterwards. It cleanses your body of toxins by inducing sweat, increases your blood flow and the flow of oxygen to the brain and it works up your muscles.

Start slowly and gradually build up until you are able to maintain a regular schedule.

4. Watch your diet.

What you eat affects your mood. Another great way to relax is to maintain a diet that is rich in nutrients, such as antioxidants, folate and omega-3 fatty acids. Eat more fruits and vegetables and when you’re thirsty, grab a bottle of water and keep away from sodas and flavored drinks.

5. Get enough sound sleep.

Sleep is about quality and not just quantity but in times of stress, it’s best to get as much sleep as you can. About 6 to 8 hours should get you the rest you need.

Getting enough sleep is an excellent way to relax. It allows your body to regroup and recover and it eases your mind of other concerns.

6. Use music.

If music works for you, use it. Stick to soft tunes and don’t whip out that Metallica CD just yet. Rock music tends to use heavy bass lines, hard percussions and strong lyrics. If you want to relax, turn to soft and easy listening and save those faster tunes for some other time.

7. Turn away from the modern trappings of your life.

Often, the most relaxing things are also the ones that are the most basic. Once a week or at least more, turn off the TV, unplug it and keep the remote out of easy reach. Turn off the computer as well.

These two are common sources of distractions. Due to the rapidly changing images and the overflow of information, they can sometimes overload the mind and hinder relaxation. Keep things simple and don’t sweat the small, insignificant stuff.

8. Have time to yourself.

A good way to relax is to set aside time for some peace and quiet. What better way to do this than to schedule short vacations for yourself? You don’t have to pack your bags or even leave the house – simply close the door, find a nice, quiet place to sit and enjoy your own company.

9. Try yoga or meditation.

Yoga and meditation helps you attain a good body and mind connection. As a result, you’re more likely to feel relaxed and refreshed. Try simple yoga steps or learn to meditate a few minutes each day. Do these regularly and you’ll find that it will get easier and easier to relax and manage stress when you really need to.

10. Laugh.

Find your sense of humor again. Be with family and friends you can be yourself with. Laughter is one of the best ways to relax and it doesn’t have to cost a thing. It also helps you build connections with people in your life who really matter.

Yoga Can Help You Grow Taller Faster

Yoga has become popular among many ages through many countries all over the world since the turn of the century. It has long been established that Yoga provides immeasurable help for achieving a sense of total well-being, get relief from stress and reach levels of tranquility previously sought. But there is still a not-as-popular gain from yoga and that’s growth acceleration! If this were more known, there would be a lot more getting into regular yoga.

Yoga is turning out to be much more than getting or keeping the body shape and size of your dreams, even than bestowing rest and serenity in the hustle and bustle of todays living. Yoga postures contain a great number of stretches and extensions, so the muscles of your spine and related areas of your body get to be prodded to limber up and grow upwards. The basic movements and the smooth movements for centering in yoga are the more widespread information on yoga. The body becomes supple and more flexible and the consistent practitioner acquires the ability and capacity to regulate breathing. It is said (another not-commonly-known fact) that proper breathing, which is encouraged by yoga breathing and postures, helps the body grow upwards.

There is real change wrought by yoga to hasten upward growth through its stretching and demanding poses to be done by practitioner. All of these render a satisfied spine, one that has gained total assortment of movements. This gives the body the resistance against the regular pull of gravity, which brings about a tightening of the spine. Which then deters upward growth.

The extensions caused by the different postures make the spinal cartilage thicker and the joints longer. This adds to the general stature and maintains correct posture, which is essential in growing taller.

Some yoga poses are definitely directed towards this end-result. Sukhasana results in more controlled breathing and tones the hips and lower spine. This is done on the floor with crossed legs, hands on top of knees. With back straightened, the buttocks are pushed to the ground while lowering the knees. Take 5 deep breaths while maintaining that stance and bring your arms over your head. Then lower your arms as you exhale. Do this position repeatedly 5 to 7 times.

The Trikonasana is a bit more complicated, with legs 3 feet apart, the left foot rotated in a 90-degree angle toward the left arm and the right leg 45 degrees inward. With a deep breath the arms are raised to the side and exhale as the face is turned to look along the span of the left arm. This is followed by a deep inhalation and stretching towards the left ankle with left hip leaning down as much as possible. At the limit, both arms are rotated until the left hand is wound up against the inner leg at the calf area, while pointing the right arm upwards. This ends with a deep inhalation while straightening back, and exhaling while both arms are lowered gradually.

These two are just among the particular postures in yoga that can enable one to gain more inches to ones height without any drastic effects or complications.
