With over 55 countries that have just banned personal use of plastic, it is up to us (living in countries that have not banned plastic) to make a conscious effort to limit our daily use of products that use plastics.


You might be asking, why is this so important? Being conscious about plastic is important because every single piece of plastic that you have ever used is still on this Earth. It takes up to a thousand years for plastic to biodegrade.


Here are 10 suggestions to apply to your life so that you lower your plastic consumption:


1. Buy a reusable shopping bag made from fabric.


2. Avoid buying iced drinks from coffee shops that don’t recycle.

 

3. Replace soap gels and shower gels that use plastic containers with soap bars.


4. Re-use takeout containers.


5. Use your own coffee or tea mug (particularly for iced drinks).


6. Replace your plastic with tin or aluminium.


7. Recycle according to each state’s regulations.

4 traditional eastern supplements that are great for your health.

IMG_6470.JPG

It’s hard to keep up with all the latest benefits of particular supplements. I am a huge fan of traditional eastern medicine and the many benefits that come along with some of the herbs that have been used as supplements for thousands of years.


Here are four supplements that I highly recommend for your health and why:


1. Ginseng.


I highly recommend Ginseng. I take it everyday and it helps me stay alert and active; even when I feel lethargic or tired. This is not a replacement for sleep but can help fight fatigue. I am a huge fan of Korean Ginseng that can be bought online.



2. Oregano.


Another supplement that I take daily is Oregano. Oregano is in the Basil family and is a natural antibiotic and anti-fungal meaning that it helps your body eliminate toxins easier, particularly from your intestines. Oregano has been linked to lowering risks of cancer as well as lowering cholesterol.


3. Ginkgo


The third supplement that I recommend is Gingko. The health benefits range from improved blood circulation to improved brain function and many other benefits. When I take Gingko, I notice an improvement in my mental focus and overall mood. I don’t take this for a long period of time; only during days that I know that I will need more mental focus or feel drained of energy.




4. B12

This supplement is naturally found in particular plants, eggs and most meats. They have recently found out that the body will excrete excess b12 so taking high amounts of it will not cause harm. I take b12 in my electrolytes that I consume daily. Providing me with generally more energy, mental stamina and circulation of minerals and vitamins from my food into the blood stream.

Here are 10 inspiring quotes by Hali Tsotetsi.


1. ‘Sometimes “Thank you” is closure.


2. ‘Ease up your loved one's day by giving them your smile.’


3. ‘There's a reason why all of us are born as the people we are.’


4. ‘My intention is to spread love. Sometimes I get it back and sometimes I don't. Regardless of the outcome, I won't miss out on an opportunity to love someone.’

What wakes me up in the morning, my uplifting morning routine.

IMG_6290.JPG

Let’s be honest, it’s not always easy to get up in the morning. I have a hectic schedule and getting up properly in the morning is key.


Over the years, I have adopted different methods to waking up in an efficient way.


This is my uplifting morning routine:


1. I meditate for at least 15 minutes in the morning.


I’m currently doing the 21-day meditation with Deepak Chopra and Oprah. I am also a huge fan of Sadghuru and Wayne Dyer’s morning meditation that I listen to on YouTube. Meditation is important to me because it raises our vibration and elevated our subconscious, strengthening the mind.


2. I pray


Prayer is so important to me. I didn’t grow up religious but I have always had a connection to God. That connection is primary and has helped me through many situations. Sometimes my prayer is simply one of gratitude. Sometimes I address a concern on my mind and protection against negative energy. And, sometimes, I pray for others. Whatever the prayer is, I pray to be more connected to The Divine.


3. I play uplifting music.


A few years ago, I would wake up to one of my favourite DJs, DJ Kent. He has these mixes available on YouTube, which I listen to. I also like to listen to Gospel music. Something that reminds me that there is joy, beauty and magic in This World so that I don’t forget.

Instead of these actions, I will practice gratitude instead.

IMG_6256.JPG

I am a firm-believer in gratitude. Gratitude can help you change your perspective, elevate your consciousness and remind you of reasons why it is beneficial to get through something that may be challenging or to move beyond.


Sometimes it’s difficult to embody this. So, I am writing this list to remind myself of things that I am leaving behind and practicing gratitude instead of:


• Instead of feeling like they owe me anything, I will practice gratitude for having anything.


• Instead of counting what I don’t have, I will practice gratitude for what I do have.


• Instead of counting how many times love has hurt me, I will practice gratitude that I was given the chance to love.


• Instead of complaining about how people treat me, I will practice gratitude that I choose to treat people differently.


• Instead of complaining about how much money I make, I will practice gratitude that I even get paid.


• Instead of expecting perfection, I will practice gratitude that there are different ways and different people who deal with things from different perspective.


•Instead of expecting everyone and everything to be the same, I will practice gratitude that I have been given the choice of variety and diversity.


• Instead of being bitter about what could’ve been, I will practice gratitude that every person and everything in my life is in my life for a reason and every person and thing that isn’t, isn’t mean to be in my life.

Phrases that the different zodiac signs use after a break-up.

We’ve all gone through a break-up and deal with it differently. So, I thought it only fitting for this month’s Zodiac article to be dedicated to phrases that the different signs are likely to use during a break-up.


*Please keep in mind that this is a fun article based on what the zodiac’s common traits are associated with.


•Aquarius: (Robot voice) ‘I’m okay. This for the best.’ - Cries when no one is around to save face.


Pisces: ‘What happened? I thought everything was going well. What do I do? How do I live?’


Aries: ‘You’ll regret this and the day that you were born!’


Taurus: ‘We’re not over. You’re crazy! I love you and I don’t love everyone.’


Gemini: ‘Great! Now, I can live my best life, ALONE!’


Cancer: ‘I need a month alone at home so that I can cry and feel everything.’


Leo: ‘I always knew that I was lowering my standards for you. This is proof because you don’t know how great I am.’


Virgo: ‘Fine by me. The next chapter of my life is about me and me only.’


Libra: ‘Can we still be friends?’


Scorpio: ‘You’ll regret this and I will prove to you that you will!’


Sagittarius: ‘Now I can finally sleep with other people and not feel bad about it.’


Capricorn: ‘I’m glad it’s over, you didn’t align with my 5- year plan anyway.’

10 Things That I tell myself when someone comments about my weight.

IMG_6186.JPG

Image from Unsplash

 

We are a society based on looks. Especially in the city that I live in, L.A., people tend to be more focused on the outside than what is in inside. It is unfortunate because we miss out on so much that someone has to offer on the inside because we are so focused on the external.


I am very happy with the way that I look and feel. I feel healthy, beautiful, strong and full of life. Which, is a far way from where I have come.


I spent years being unkind to myself, starving myself and throwing up my food to please what some of my family, friends and agents thought of my size. That journey led me to realize that no matter how small I get, someone will always have something to say about the way that you look. It is a societal disease to place our insecurities onto others.


I reject it because it is not healthy and not serving.


So now when someone comments about my weight, I might reply to them or not. However, my internal dialogue is more important than what anyone else has to hear.


This is what I say to myself when someone makes a comment about my weight:


1. You are enough.


2. Your health is priority.


3. Don’t give in to someone else’s insecurities.


4. That person and comment does not have power over you.


5. Your body is doing way more for you internally than how it looks on the outside.


6. Health and happiness first!


7. Meeting people’s expectations of yourself is a game that you can never win.


8. Believe what you want about yourself.


9. People’s words only carry weight if you let them.


10. Be stronger! Your journey and progression is in your hands, not someone else’s.

5 choses que j'apprends lors de mon voyage jumeau flamme / âme soeur.

IMG_6065.JPG

Image de Unsplash  

 

Si vous m'aviez demandé il ya deux ans ce qu’était une flamme jumelle, j’aurais haussé les épaules et oublié rapidement quelle était la question juste après.



Cependant, aujourd’hui, ma compréhension est très claire, car je suis dans ce voyage à deux flammes / âme soeur (de ce que je peux me souvenir) pendant presque une décennie.



* La flamme jumelle est une autre personne vivante dont vous partagez la même vibration. Quelqu'un qui est une extension de vous mais sous une autre forme. Ce n'est pas toujours romantique et certaines personnes y voient un lien avec l'âme soeur.



Il y a neuf ans, je travaillais comme barman dans un restaurant à SOHO, à New York. Un jour, le chef du restaurant (où je travaillais) s'est approché et a demandé à lire ma paume. Alors qu'il commençait à lire ma paume, il m'a dit beaucoup de choses qui étaient exactes à l'époque. Puis il a commencé à me dire que je rencontrerais bientôt mon âme soeur. Il a dit que mon âme soeur est célèbre et qu'il se présenterait aussi à mon travail et à d'autres choses.
Il m'a alors dit que mon âme soeur m'enverrait un cadeau et que je serais impressionné. Il a dit qu'une fois que nous serions en couple, nous serions très heureux.



À vrai dire, j’avais beaucoup de doutes sur l’histoire de mon âme soeur. Alors, j'ai oublié ça. Lorsqu'il m'avait raconté l'histoire, j'avais 21 ans et j'avais presque épousé une personne très toxique pour moi et pour ma vie. Par conséquent, je suis inquiet à propos de l'histoire ou d'être avec quelqu'un qui pourrait me rendre heureux.



De nombreuses années ont passé et des médiums aléatoires venaient me parler et me racontaient la même histoire. Que j'épouserais quelqu'un de célèbre dans l'industrie de la musique qui serait mon âme sœur / mon feu jumeau. J'étais même allé voir un lecteur de tarot au sujet de ma carrière en 2014 et il avait mentionné que mon âme sœur et moi-même nous croiserions plusieurs fois jusqu'au jour où il se présenterait à mon travail.



Je me sentais comme si je fuyais cette histoire qui continuait de me suivre. Au fil des ans, je rêverais d'un producteur de musique que j'admirais. Je rêverais qu'il m'appelle. Je n'ai jamais pensé que l'appel venait de ma jumelle flamme / âme soeur. Je ressentais une connexion profonde avec lui et je ne savais pas trop pourquoi. Je sentais que je devais le connaître et je n'avais jamais ressenti cela pour personne, pas même pour ceux que j'avais vraiment aimés. Les sentiments n'étaient jamais romantiques mais j'avais un besoin profond d'être à côté de lui. Bien que j’ai parfois eu ce sentiment profond, j’évitais de faire des recherches sur sa vie personnelle parce que je ne voulais pas altérer ce que je ressentais pour lui.



Quelques années jusqu'en 2018, j'ai 29 ans et je vis à Los Angeles. Je travaille dans un studio de yoga comme réceptionniste un soir. Et, une femme au hasard vient me dire que je suis sur le point de me marier. J'étais choqué parce que le mariage était la dernière chose sur ma liste et au fond de moi, l'idée même du mariage me faisait peur. Elle a mentionné qu'il était amoureux de mon pays d'origine, l'Afrique du Sud, qu'il était dans l'industrie de la musique et qu'il était une personne gentille. Au hasard, le nom du producteur que j’ai admiré et auquel j’ai ressenti une profonde connexion me vient à l’esprit. J'ai pensé, est-ce que ça pourrait être lui?



Je lui ai demandé comment je pouvais savoir que c’était lui et elle a répondu: "Dieu vous enverra des signes". Honnêtement, je ne crois pas beaucoup de gens mais je la croyais de tout mon cœur parce qu'elle semblait sincère et honnête.



Deux mois plus tard, mon camarade de chambre (qui ne savait rien de la situation) est venu me voir et m'a dit qu'il devait lire mes cartes de tarot. J'étais pressé et lui ai demandé si je pouvais le faire un autre jour. Il a été énergique à ce sujet et j'ai donc cédé, je lui ai dit qu'il le pouvait. Il m'a dit que mon âme soeur entrerait bientôt dans ma vie. Que nous nous sommes croisés plusieurs fois mais que nous nous retrouverions très bientôt. Il a dit qu'il viendrait à mon cours de yoga la semaine prochaine. Mon intuition me cria le nom du même producteur mais je l’ignora. J'ai pensé, à toutes les personnes que cela pourrait être, pourquoi lui?



Le mercredi suivant, le producteur de musique que j'avais admiré s'est présenté à mon cours de yoga. Pendant que j'enseignais la classe, j'ai réalisé beaucoup de choses: que nous avions croisé plusieurs fois dans le studio de yoga, que mon intuition d'être proche de lui était vraie et qu'il était mon âme soeur.



Aujourd'hui, nous sommes toujours sur le chemin de la séparation, ce qui signifie que nous ne sommes pas ensemble. Ce qui finira à un moment donné. Espérons que dans cette vie.



Au cours de ce voyage, c’est ce que j’ai appris sur le voyage de l’âme soeur / flamme jumelle.



1. Vous ne pouvez pas fuir.

Depuis que j'ai découvert qui il était vraiment, sur le plan personnel, j'ai passé beaucoup de temps à le fuir et à ce qui l'accompagnait: le style de vie de parti. J'ai commencé à raconter à certains de mes amis comment on m'avait dit que j'étais censé être avec lui et ils m'ont dit qu'il allait m'utiliser de manière sexuelle. Ils avaient vu ses médias sociaux et vu des femmes être dépeintes sous un angle sexuel. En tant que mécanisme de défense, j'ai commencé à le fuir. Il me parlait ou me regardait dans les yeux et je l'évitais à tout prix. Parfois, regarder le plafond quand il a essayé de me parler. Il y a une semaine seulement, avais-je compris que

C'est moi qui le fuis, avant de penser qu'il fuyait. Ce qui était une projection claire de ma part. Il m'a envoyé des pancartes et écrit une chanson disant qu'il est prêt pour cela, mais j'étais trop occupé à tenir son passé contre lui pour voir au-delà du jugement et de la peur. Par peur, j'ai rencontré une autre relation pour me rendre compte que la peur était le contraire de la croissance. La peur étouffe l'amour. Alors, je choisis maintenant de l'aimer complètement.

 

 2. La pardon est la clé.

Il y a un an, j'étais prêt à faire le saut avec lui jusqu'à ce que je voie des images de femmes danser sur sa page Instagram qui me mettaient mal à l'aise. Pour couronner le tout, j'avais entendu dire qu'il s'était lancé dans une discussion publique sur Twitter avec un autre DJ / producteur et que la personne avec laquelle il se disputait avait déclaré qu'il avait eu une longue histoire négative avec les femmes. Après avoir lu ceci, intérieurement, j'ai explosé avec le jugement et la colère. J'étais attristé et déçu que lui, le jumeau flamme / âme soeur, puisse être si irresponsable avec sa responsabilité en tant que personnage public. Je suis aussi devenue jalouse du fait qu'il passait du temps avec d'autres femmes et pas avec moi. Je me suis demandé, qu'attendait-il pour être avec moi? Je me suis tenu pendant des mois et des mois à la colère, au ressentiment et à la jalousie. Si bien que j'allais sur sa page Instagram et le jugerais comme un coureur de jupons et prier pour que je ne finisse jamais avec lui. J'étais en colère et blessé par le jugement et la peur que j'avais créée dans ma propre tête. Il me mangeait. Après avoir été torturée pendant si longtemps, j'ai décidé de relâcher la colère parce que cela ne faisait que me calmer et faire le contraire de ce que je voulais réaliser dans ce monde: créer la paix et l'amour. C'est un processus sur lequel je suis toujours, mais le résultat final est meilleur pour mon esprit et mon corps.




3. L'amour n'est pas prudent.

Alors que je fuyais cet homme, je me suis retrouvé dans une relation avec quelqu'un d'autre. Non seulement j'étais dans la relation, mais je me forçais à être avec quelqu'un avec qui je ne voulais pas être. Je savais que ce n’était pas censé être, car il ne se passait pas un jour sans que je ne pense au producteur, même lorsque j'étais dans les bras de mon nouvel homme. Vous voyez, la connexion à double flamme vous fait ressentir ce que l'autre personne ressent, émotionnellement et spirituellement. Je pouvais sentir que ma flamme jumelle savait que j'étais dans une relation et il en était triste. Je ne sais pas comment il a découvert mais je pouvais sentir sa douleur dans mon cœur quand je pensais à lui et cela me rendait triste. La semaine dernière, j'ai eu la plus grande épiphanie que je sois en sécurité avec ma flamme jumelle quand, l'amour n'est pas sans danger. L'amour est super! Mais l'amour peut être douloureux, blessant, bouleversant, déchirant, décevant et émotionnel. Mais l'amour est puissant et l'amour gagne toujours. Aimer avec prudence n'est pas le véritable amour. Alors, j'ai rompu avec le nouveau et j'ai décidé d'être avec ma flamme jumelle, peu importe le jour.




4. L'univers a un plan.

Après que ma flamme jumelle ait pris mon cours de yoga, j'ai reçu beaucoup de signes de l'Univers. L'un d'entre eux est que lorsque je regardais une interview avec lui, il a dit qu'il avait tatoué son animal préféré sur une partie spécifique de son corps. Ne t'en fais pas, ma bouche est tombée sur le sol quand mon téléphone est tombé de ma main. J'étais tellement sous le choc de tatouer mon animal préféré sur la même partie de mon corps. Mon esprit était stupéfait de la façon dont cela aurait pu se passer. La semaine prochaine, partout où j'allais, j'entendais sa musique. Je rencontrais des gens qui l’avaient rencontré ou qui le connaissaient et qui mentionnait son nom en passant jusqu’à ce qu’un jour, j’ai vu un panneau de son visage à l’extérieur de Trader Joe’s et failli tomber par terre. Même si j'ai reçu tous ces signes, il m'a fallu un certain temps pour comprendre que c'était hors de mon contrôle. J'ai toujours été capable de contrôler les hommes, les situations et le chemin de mon destin. C’était donc intimidant d’admettre que je ne pouvais pas cette fois. Ce n'est que récemment que j'ai libéré le contrôle complet de cette situation car je savais que l'Univers avait un plan plus ambitieux que je ne pouvais l'imaginer et je suis reconnaissant d'être entre des mains attentionnées et solidaires.

 


5. Ce type de relation est destiné à la croissance spirituelle.

Dans cette vie, j'ai beaucoup souffert émotionnellement d'hommes indisponibles. Il y a 3 ans, j'étais dans une relation stable avec une personne avec laquelle je pensais que j'allais me marier, je suis tombée enceinte et j'ai fait une fausse couche. Après la fausse couche, j'ai mis fin à la relation parce que mon petit ami (à l'époque) n'était pas là pour moi, émotionnellement ou spirituellement. Depuis lors, j'ai eu ma garde de la plus grande façon. J'ai développé cette mentalité dont je devrais me protéger, car j'avais le sentiment d'être à l'origine de ma fausse couche et de la position délirante dans laquelle je me trouvais. J'ai donc promis d'ignorer les hommes qui, à mon avis, pourraient me causer du tort. Quand j'ai rencontré ma flamme jumelle, j'ai eu l'impression qu'il était gentil et aimant envers moi, mais je suis devenu corrompu par ce que j'avais entendu parler de lui et que j'avais vu sur son compte Instagram. J'ai commencé à l'ignorer pour me protéger, en oubliant que l'Univers est mon dos. Bien sûr, nous vivons des expériences pour une raison et nous ne devrions pas apprendre la même chose plus d’une fois. Cependant, j'ai appris que si l'Univers m'a envoyé autant de signes que cette relation est censée être, je ne combats que ce qui est dans mes cartes. Aujourd'hui, je suis là. Avec un esprit ouvert et un coeur ouvert. Profondément curieux de ce qui pourrait arriver si nous étions ensemble. J'ai abandonné le besoin d'être en sécurité, forte et sécurisée parce que beaucoup de vie se libère et admet que la sécurité est le produit de l'imagination. Je suis ouvert à l'inconnu et ouvert à la nature de cette histoire. Je fais confiance aux signes et je crois en mon lien jumeau flamme / âme soeur.

10 Inspirational quotes by India.Arie

India.Arie has had an impact on my life. I absolutely love her and the message that she spreads through her music. India.Arie was born in Denver, Colorado. She is a singer-songwriter who has sold 10 million albums worldwide by raising consciousness.

 

Here are 10 quotes by India.Arie:

1. When I perform, I'm just very much just being myself.

2. It's important to have a place where you can recharge. Everybody's is different, but I do think it should entail quiet because it needs to be where you hear your spirit most clearly. For me, that's the prayer room in my apartment. And since my home is 700 square feet, I mean the coat closet near the front door.

3.  No matter what anybody says, what matters most is what you think of yourself.

 

4. Because you never know where life is gonna take you, And you can’t change where you’ve been. But today, I have the opportunity to choose.


5. The worst disease in the world is hate. And the cure for hate is love.


6. There are rules but there’s really no wrong way.


7. If I’m not doing anything to make a change, then I’m responsible.


8. I heard a voice that told me I'm essential. How all my fears are limiting my potential. Said it's time to step into the light and use every bit of power i have inside.


9. What did not demolish me simply polished me


10. The difference between living and feeling alive, is using your fear as fuel to fly.

As we begin our Financial Freedom course, I thought it fitting to start this week with inspirational quotes by one of the biggest influences in my life, Suze Orman.


Suze Orman is a financial guru who used to own a restaurant and learnt how to finesse financial opportunities through different successful business endeavours; that were not always successful. In other words, she learnt the hard way.


Here are ten quotes from Suze that we hope will inspire you:


1.People first, then money, then things.


2. No one's ever achieved financial fitness with a January resolution that's abandoned by February.

3.In all realms of life it takes courage to stretch your limits, express your power, and fulfill your potential... it's no different in the financial realm.


4. It's better to do nothing with your money than something you don't understand.

 

5. Many people are in the dark when it comes to money, and I'm going to turn on the lights.

 

6. The key to making money is to stay invested.


7. True generosity is an offering; given freely and out of pure love. No strings attached. No expectations. Time and love are the most valuable possession you can share.


8. A wise woman recognizes when her life is out of balance and summons the courage to act to correct it, she knows the meaning of true generosity, happiness is the reward for a life lived in harmony, with a courage and grace.


9. I am a big believer that orderliness begets wealth.


10. It’s impossible to map out a route to your destination if you don’t know where you’re starting from.

He is The 14th Dalai Lama, believed to be the reincarnation of Siddartha (Bhudda). He touches many with his charitable work and kindness around The World.


Here are 10 inspirational quotes by The Dalai Lama:



1. Remember that sometimes not getting what you want is a wonderful stroke of luck.


2. Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.


3. Love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries. Without them, humanity cannot survive.


4. This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness.


5. Choose to be optimistic, it feels better.

6. The true hero is the one who conquers his own anger and hatred.

7. Our prime purpose in this life is to help others. And if you can't help them, at least don't hurt them.


8. The purpose of our lives is to be happy.


9. There are only two days in the year that nothing can be done. One is called yesterday and the other is called tomorrow. Today is the right day to love, believe, do and mostly live.


10. Man sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health. And then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present; the result being that he does not live in the present or the future; he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies having never really lived.

10 Things I am leaving behind with my 20’s as I turn 30.

I just turned 30. And, truthfully, I have been afraid of leaving my 20’s. I’ve had a lot of great memories and loved having been in my 20’sBut, like with everything else, change is inevitable. Time has to pass and with that, we get older.


It seems silly but moving forward from my 20’s felt like I hadn’t achieved what I had wanted to by the time that I had wanted to. I had always thought that I would have a family of my own by my 30th birthday and the thought of it not happening saddened and disappointed me.


With the support and encouragement of loved ones around me, I came to the realization that things do not equate to time. Turning 30 has helped me rid myself of society, other people’s and my own expectations on to an age, particularly an age that seems to be monumental.


As I release my expectations, I release these other nine things too:


1. BS


2. Drama.


3. Insecurity.


4. Neediness.


5. Desperation.


6. External validation.


7. Toxicity.


8. People who only want to others down.


9. The need to please.

7 Questions about Aquarius answered.

IMG_5677.PNG

 

Seeing as it is my Birthday in this Zodiac Sign, I thought it would be fitting to start with this Zodiac. This is the twelfth Zodiac and is ruled by Uranus and Saturn, usually meaning that this Zodiac appears to be cold and distant to be many people.


The dates of this Zodiac are from 20th of January-18th of February, the dates can range depending on where in The World you are from.


Here are 7 common questions about Aquarius answered:

1. I can’t read an Aquarius. Why not?
Aquarius is the most unpredictable sign of all. They may be into saving humanity but dislike people around them. They may be quiet and have outbursts of passion. They may claim to want stability but often find themselves in unstable circumstances. One thing to accept about Aquarians is that they will always surprise you.


2. Why are they so flakey?
It stems from their need to be authentic. Every Aquarius has a deep desire to be unique and free of any commitments that stop them from losing their identity. They like themselves and don’t want to change so if you make them do something that makes them change, they will fight you by not showing up or cancelling out of fear of losing themselves.


3. My Aquarius partner won’t marry me, why?
This is not personal. Aquarians don’t believe in being like other people, in fact, they look down upon people who conform to society- seeing it as the easy way out. The ultimate fear of an Aquarius is to settle: in love, life and career. They may or may not feel like you are ‘The One’ but regardless, they want to be unique. They strive to keep their identity and to prove people wrong.


4. Why do Aquarius lack emotions?
It’s not that they lack emotions; it’s that they would rather deal with their emotions alone. Because Aquarius like to be authentic, they don’t like hearing other people’s advice. They would rather figure it out on their own. They believe that a lot of people are selfish, manipulative and only want them to conform so they don’t show emotions to avoid being manipulated, betrayed and used by other people.


5. Is my Aquarius-Ex over me?
Probably. Aquarius are masters of forgetting about people. When people are in their lives, they are fully committed. However , when an Aquarius has moved on, they will act like you don’t exist. Because, to them, you don’t. They are very efficient in controlling their minds. So, if you are not in their life, they don’t care about you.


6. Why are Aquarius so judgemental?
Because they want what’s best for you. Aquarius often say what others think but don’t have the energy or time to sugarcoat what comes out of their mouth. They believe that no matter how they say it, the message is the same.To them, facts are facts. It comes across judgemental but their hearts are accepting of you and who you are, they just want you to do more, be more and progress in your life.


7. Why do Aquarius hardly say ‘I love you’?

Aquarius don’t believe in external validation. They believe that you should believe you are the best because they believe that they are the best. To them, everyone should be their best cheerleader. Also, as I mentioned before, they are very detached so words of endearment are not their thing. They will show you that they love you but hardly tell you. If you want to hear these words, ask them to say them and I guarantee you they will because they don’t want you to feel as though they don’t care about; lack of terms of endearment is just a part of their nature.
