It has helped me understand my personality traits and how to use the positive ones to enrich my life and daily people dealings while being more conscious in tempering the other characteristics that may throw people off. I have a high sense of self awareness and astrology definitely contributes in my introspections.Carrie M.Tue, 12 Aug 2008 22:10:12 -0000http://carriedanielle.disqus.com/how_has_astrology_influenced_your_life_or_a_decision/#comment-2594037You may want to check-out your oriental astrology sign. I'm a Virgo - Dragon and the western and oriental characterizations are really interesting! :)Carrie M.Tue, 12 Aug 2008 22:13:34 -0000http://carriedanielle.disqus.com/what_do_you_need_to_let_go_of/#comment-2594566I need to let go of my tendency to think about everything and getting frustrated when things are not done the way I want them when I want them. I worry about the smallest stuff which my friends say, stem from my desire to always be in control of things. It's not the kind of control where the motivation is to exercise power over anyone but more this weird sense of relief knowing I have things in check. I worry that the tree lantern bulbs are not getting fixed on schedule, I couldn't wait to have the plant pots arranged as I imagined them while I was having coffee out in the garden this morning (I ended up leaving the house late for work because I wanted to personally tell my helper how a pot should be turned this way and the other that way), I stress myself unnecessarily sometimes, insisting that I need to get this cute little living room ornament I want to show my friends who are not visiting until two months later. This can be too much and though my loved ones and friends are amused with it (they know my heart too much that they're not affected in any bad way by this "idiosyncrasy" of mine), it can be taxing at times having to always be on top of things. I need to relax and be more patient.Carrie M.Tue, 19 Aug 2008 04:17:10 -0000http://carriedanielle.disqus.com/what_do_you_find_sexy/#comment-2268364Power - how people who has it act like they don't have it; being totally comfortable with who and what they are. Mature, successful men/women who still blush at unexpected compliments or whispered sweet nothings. Conducting adult, serious conversation over dinner while holding hands under the table. Attentiveness. Men who open doors and who take the danger side when crossing the street. Cigar smoke and vodka. Just a hint of scent on the neck. When my man pretends he doesn't notice when I mingle in a room full of friends and yet he so discreetly searches the room with his eyes in search of me. Freshly laundered cotton shirt, the older the better. Humility. Intelligence. Full, deep voice.Carrie M.Thu, 04 Sep 2008 04:31:52 -0000http://carriedanielle.disqus.com/what_do_you_collect/#comment-2792752Dragon figurines, pendants, necklaces, stickers, rings, etc. Dragon is my chinese astrological sign and I believe in the power it emanates.<br><br>I collect pencils, too. I love the way pencil glides on paper.Carrie M.Wed, 01 Oct 2008 21:52:43 -0000
