New Moon in Leo

Today is the Sun's day aka Sunday. It is also a new moon in the fiery sign of Leo.



New Moons are a great time to think of things you want to manifest. Leo energy is for me, all about rock star energy. Being bold and basking in your day in the sun. Here is a few ideas to flow in this Leo energy.


♌ Do something unexpected. Surprise yourself.😊
♌ Tell people how you really feel or what you truly desire.
♌ Put yourself first for a change.
♌ Open yourself up to all the good that has your name written on
it.

Have a wonderful Leo kissed Sunday.

Manifesting Monday : Life is Wonderful

Where attention goes, the energy flows. Put your thoughts and feelings on what is wonderful, good and the best for yourself. Before you know it, more great events, people, and things will come your way. It has definitely worked for me in my own life. A Wonderful life is for everyone.

Have a Happy Monday, my friends.

Rainy Day Love

Happy Rainy Day, my friends. The clouds and rain are rolling in today in The Bronx.



Here is what I like to do on a rainy day:

Embrace the rain and walk outside with my bright wellies on.



Bake a sweet treat. Apple muffins and banana bread is a big favorite for Jake.


Write down ideas in my creative notebook.



Sit on my bed and watch the clouds sail by for a few minutes.



Reread a favorite book for comfort and inspiration.



Watch old movies like: The Enchanted Cottage or Miracle in the Rain.


Do you do anything special on rainy days? Let me know.

Manifesting Monday: Kindness is a strength

One of my greatest pleasure as a kid was making people happy. I loved to help in some way to bring a smile to someone's face. One thing I found is that people, whether young or old, needed kindness. It could be a physical gesture or an uplifting word.

As I grew up, I saw how kindness was seen as weak or that you wasn't realistic enough. I was told by people the world is tough and you have to be tough too. Yes, there are times you have to be tough and project strength. More often than not, I found being kind even in the most difficult situations has gotten me further and brought peace to most situations. It can deflate the most angry of people.

Kindness for me is a strength. It is something I cherish. I think how better the world would be if sometimes, we react in kindness to each other.

If like me, you were chided by others for being kind, know they are wrong. In a world full of quick come back, sarcasm and bitterness, kindness is always needed.

Revisit classic film: Till We Meet Again

Happy Friday, my friends.Some kind soul uploaded a fave old movie on you tube of mine called Till We Meet Again (1940) starring Merle Oberon and George Brent.



What makes it special for me that I actually equally like the original and the remake.The original is One Way Passage(1931) starring Kay Francis and William Powell




What I adore about the movie is that it has a good sublot and secondary interesting characters too. The other romance is between the cop Steve(played by Pat O' Brien), and the fake countess Tina (played by Bonnie Barnes.) who fall in love unexpectedly. You also have Frank McHugh, who played the same character in both movies,is the drunk thief who is loyal to Dan. He provides funny comic bits throughout the film. Also Geraldine Fitzgerald, who plays Bonnie, gets to shine here too.




The movie belongs to it's leads. Merle, with her haunting beauty, plays the dying Joan with the right mix of wistfulness and desire to live fully. George is all suave and tender as Dan, who is trying to escape his death penalty charge before the ship docks to San Francisco where he will meet his end. Yes, the stakes are high. Each doing their best to not let the other know that Death is waiting for them.


The film for me has the right mix of magic, realism and romance to capture my fellow dreamy romance lovers attention. If you are curious, here is my original post about Till we meet again.
