New Worlds of Body, Mind & Spirit Since 1901
Several years ago, Scott Cunningham and I shared a two-bedroom apartment not far from the horseshoe-shaped sports stadium in San Diego. One day, I came back from working as a courier with some business cards I had made for myself at a local printer. I gave one to Scott and he asked what it was. "Something new," I replied. For some reason he found my tone of voice combined with the two words to be hilarious, and he would often quote me and mimic my tone of voice, laughing about it.

For example, I've been studying hypnosis and recently took training to become a trainer of ...
I once read that a whopping one hundred million Americans make New Year's resolutions. That means that each year, about one-third of the US population gears up for the challenging work of self-improvement.

A little confusing, don't you think? Actually, we don't think about it. We haphazardly toss "love" around every day attaching it to all kinds of things. Because love is such a vast and vague archetype, ...
"Is a Leo man good for a Capricorn woman?" "How does a Virgo go with a Gemini?" Or, perhaps, "How did a beautiful relationship that seemed so right go so wrong?" If you've ever pondered questions like these, you'll love Llewellyn's new title, Star Guide to Guys. This book is for every woman, from the one who likes to read her horoscope to the serious student of astrology. There's no confusing astrological lingo, just humorous, down-to-earth advice about men. Part one, "All About Him," describes each sign in detail. Here's a short excerpt on Gemini: "'At last,' you think, 'a man I can be friends with,' and this time, you'd be right. It's when the delight of friendship turns into the ...
