Trees are beautiful, and we all know their importance on the overall environment. What we question now is, does proximity to trees affect our health in general and are people who live near trees healthier than those who don’t? Maybe, let’s take a closer look.

Healthy Trees

Researchers report that people in urban areas with more trees are healthier individuals. This means having fewer cardio-metabolic conditions like heart disease and diabetes. Of course, green is better for the health, but do we know the direct correlation between humans and individual trees? How much can a tree on a city street affect man’s well-being?

Test subjects were chosen from Toronto because of Canada’s universal health care law. This means that access to doctors should not vary as much as in other areas making the health impact from trees an increased factor. Although the unive

Despite the fact that you are placing your off-and-on relationship with your zodiac sign in the ‘entertainment’ field, astrology is actually very serious matter. It’s a large group of systems, beliefs and traditions. Although various types of astrology may be different, they share one thing in common – they are built on using the observation of the heavens as a way to predict, interpret and understand events in the human world on Earth.

It’s a science that studies the influence that distant celestial bodies have on human lives. It’s based on the premise that the position of these cosmic objects (stars, sun, moon and planets) at the time of our birth, shape our personality, influencing our careers, romantic relationships, economic fortunes and health.

It is believed that the origins of the astrological doctrine can be found in ancient Babylonia in the middle of the 2^nd millennium BC. Throughout history astrology has even been considered an academic tradition. Although astrology in some cultures has a strong religious significance, in others remains to be controversial.

Almost every culture has it’s own astrology. Perhaps no one knows the exact number of types of astrology but you can use the following list as a guide to some of the worldwide astrology traditions that exist. Here’s a brief explanation of the most popular ones.

God said:

If there were no time and you really knew this, where would panic go? What would panic be made of? Where would franticness be? What would take forever or no time at all? What could be urgent? What could be fateful or fatal? Where would disagreement lie? Without time and space, what could exist and where could it be housed except in Infinity and Eternity? Space is a poor attempt at Infinity, time is a poor attempt at Eternity yet time and space loom large in this world that is decidedly illusive.

If I ask where can time and space exist, the true answer is nowhere, for they do not exist. Time and space are like a world made of illusory toothpicks laid vertical and horizontal, yet horizontal and vertical do not exist.

Yet, what you perceive as time and space are the same nothingness only from different angles. If there were no space, no matter, then what could the matter be? What could you ever be tied up in? What could hold you back? What would not be free-flown? How could attachment exist, and how could freedom not exist? What vise could you be in? What could you find or lose? Nothing. Nothing at all.

There would be consciousness, and no borders to it.

There would be essence, and there would be Oneness. There would be no thing, yet everything would be love. You would be love, and you would be love unbound and love irresistible the way stars pop up in darkness. Darkness exists only as illusion in the world.

Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one.”- Albert Einstein

1. Discard Limiting Beliefs

Beliefs are what separate us, beliefs are what hold us back and beliefs are what your mind has conjured up about the world to keep you in a certain mind frame or perspective of reality, where you have restrictions. The spirit is free, and the spirit always says yes. No matter what!

Without a shadow of a doubt the biggest obstacle we have in our path, is removing our limiting belief systems.

Imagine for a moment that you could cross over into an alternate reality, with an alternate you. Everything you think of works out exactly as you plan it, and in effect your every dream becomes reality. What would that feel like?

Waking Times

If you haven’t figured it out yet, there’s a global awakening going on. Those people who are waking up to the true realities of the world are doing so in a large variety of ways; however some of us only get some of it, whilst others are playing with as much of it as they can. The harsh truth though is that most of us don’t get much of it at all.

Thankfully, it is changing. Person by person, group by group, powerful conversations are occurring in the conscious society and we’re inching closer to the tipping point which will send the collective consciousness of humanity into a dawn of illumination and activism. This will be the beginning of building a world where we can truthfully say that we care about each other and our environment. One day, we’ll have become truly educated.

Fractals occur naturally in every scale of life from the inconceivably large to the microscopic, and as I have always said, one needs to observe their surroundings and marvel at this amazing natural phenomena. Paul Bourke, a computer scientist at the University of Western Australia, started documented intriguing fractal patterns spread across the world, using Google Earth.

Bourke looked at the different landscapes and areas across the globe – from mountain ranges, rivers, forests, sand dunes to wetlands – and when zoomed out, these landscapes formed replicating fractal patterns. For example, if you look at a leaf, the veins bifurcate into even finer veins and they subdivide once again into even finer veins and this entire surface of the leaf resembles fractal characteristics.

6 Pisces 6

The 2015 Pisces Full Moon is a combination waking dream, party, and mini-vacation, marking not only the end of summer, but also the winding down of years of upheaval. It is an escape from what has come before, and a breather before we get to the work of the fall.

Any Pisces Full Moon unhinges us from ordinary boundaries between individuals, and between us and mundane reality, time and space. We experience greater than usual awareness of our interconnectedness with other people and humanity in general, heightened empathy, compassion and love, and with the divine. We are more open to peak artistic experiences, to otherworldly inspiration and, let’s be honest, to countering rational thought with drink, drugs, and entertainment.
