Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.Victor Frankl Most of us have been conditioned to react to life rather than live it, and quite often, we have been conditioned to react according to the needs, perceptions and motives of others. We tend to live at cross-current to our own values and beliefs, allowing our lives to be shaped by influences and events outside ourselves and beyond our co …

These workshops are for beginners who would like to get a handle on interpreting charts and also for intermediary students who would like some quick, clear, easy methods to discern the essence of a chart. Astrology is a very precise, complete and flexible “scientific art”. This symbolic language works so well because of its subtly and complexity.

Two great loves...reading and wine! So, why not combine the two? Ladies in Northern NJ between the ages of 25 and 40 are invited to get together the last (Wino) Wednesday of every month to discuss a new book.

Our main goal is to find the truth in God's word, use it in our lives and then tell it to others. We want to discover truths about God, Jesus and man directly from the Bible. We're not looking for man's opinion about God or man, but rather that which is true derived from God's word. The Bible was written by around 40 different men over a span of 1,500 years and the last book was written around 2,000 years ago, so how can this book help teach truth about God and man? The Bible says, "For I the LO …

Growing up it was not okay not to be processed in some way, relaxer, straightening comb, jerry curl, texturizer, etc. After that it was not okay to be without extensions, braids, weaves and wigs. It is okay to be relaxed, it is okay to wear weaves, it is okay to wear wigs and it is also okay to wear your own hair.  Natural hair is okay and beautiful. I have learned so much and in learning to care and maintain my hair I find that I am also more aware of my health, the food that I eat, the need fo …
