Here is the basic formula for figuring out your Numerology “number”. This is considered your Life Path Number.

1) Add up the digits in your month of birth

2) Add up the digits in your day of birth

3) Add up the digits in your year of birth.

4) Add up the answers.

We keep adding the numbers until we end up with one digit.

Example: July 29, 1958

The month is July, which is the 7th month. 7 is a single digit so there is nothing to add, but if it was 22, it would be 2 + 2 = 4.

Going by our example again, the day is 29. 2 + 9 = 11. 1 + 1 = 2

The year is 1958. 1 + 9 + 5 + 8 = 23. 2 + 3 = 5

The totals then are 7 (from the month) 2 (from the day) 5 (from the year)

7 + 2 + 5 = 14 1 + 4 = 5

Therefore the numerology number for the example would be 5.

If you follow numerology, and the predictions that are made. These are all based on your life “number”. But there are many more other calculations, the birthdate numerology is just one of them, there are calculations based on your name as well as when you were born. The birthdate number is where you start and then you can get readings.

Numerology is an ancient art, and many people follow it closely. Once you have your “number” your life path can be predicted. Many people make their personal life, career choices, relationships, finances and more, based on the results that a Master Numerologist will give you.

Many people believe in the power of math, based on your birth date, where as others follow the stars. Either way, it can be fun to find out your “life path” and look up what your number means for you.

As we all know, makeup often contains SPF (Sun Protection Factor) which is a measurement of how well that makeup will protect yours skin from the harmful UV rays from the sun. This is much in the same way as you would look at the SPF rating of sun tan lotions and the same principles apply here. The higher the SPF rating of the product, the more protection you should get from the sun, theoretically.

So, this is great news right? Well kind of. The main problem here is that unlike sun tan lotion that usually works for many hours, makeup won’t really protect you that much. This is because makeup doesn’t really form that thick a layer of protection on your skin, whereas sun tan lotion does. Therefore it is dangerous to mistakenly use makeup with SPF thinking it will be good enough protection. Following this dangerous way of thinking is only likely to result in a greater risk of sunburn and even worse – skin cancer.

The other factor that you need to take into consideration with SPF in cosmetics, is that there are two main types of harmful UV radiation: UVA and UVB. It is also a mistake to think that just buying cosmetics with a high SPF will protect you fully. You need to ideally choose a product that has a high SPF and will filter out both UVA and UVB rays, leaving you to soak up the suns gentle UV rays and get that tan.

So there we go, I hope this article has shed some light on the subject and clarified things once and for all. I have lost count of the number of times that people have asked me for advice on this and informed me that they have been following misleading advice for years and risking their health because of it. Hopefully you now won’t make the same mistakes!

Experts say there are four hot and sexy 2007 celebrity hairstyles that will be around for some time.

Short is in, lots of celebrity stars will be losing their long hairstyles this season, if they haven’t already done so. The cool and business like look as worn by Ellen Degeneres and Hilary Clinton will get shorter and punkier. Hair will be longer on the top and short-short on the back and the sides – think business-like but messy. Some of the styles will be almost mannish in their look.

The bob is back and in its cropped form can be seen on Victoria Beckham and plenty of other famous faces. This is cropped short at the back and curved onto the face in the front. Even if Posh isn’t your favorite celebrity model, the look is set to run throughout the year.

2007 Celebrity hairstyles go from short and funky, to shaggy and sexy, side parted, and ending up with long and wavy. The shaggy look can be seen a lot on TV reality shows and it relies on shine and condition. The idea is to use gel and styling cream to achieve a ‘just got out of bed look’. Men are already sporting shorter versions of this – it’s set to be a head turner during 2007.

The masculine side part has been an integral part of recent fashion shows. The side part is a classic style that leaves room for maneuver, it can be smooth and trendy or sexy rock chic. Experts say it is about to take the scene by storm in 2007.

Long and wavy, but not too tidy and neat hair, is set to be a winner this year. When you think of this style think Jessica Alba. Use a saltwater spray on damp hair to bring out the natural curls and waves, then scrunch it dry. The salt spray is the latest ‘product’ in New York City Salons and bound to be a winner for 2007 celebrity hairstyles.

Although I’m not a native of New Orleans, it is one of my favorite cities to visit. Even among the craziest people in the universe during Mardi Gras or the aftermath of a devastating hurricane, she plays gracious hostess with unruly guests, invited and uninvited.

Gregg Herren does not use kid gloves discussing his home town. He portrays the Big Easy as the gritty, hot and humid city she is with her racist and corrupt politics. Tourists don’t escape unscathed as they are depicted in very unflattering light, as well. But this doesn’t mean that he dislikes the place. On the contrary.

Murder in the Rue Dauphine is rich with details of New Orleans and Herren’s love for her and her flaws shines through the words of his excellent mystery. This is the first book I’ve read by this author and I enjoyed it thoroughly. I was reluctant to pick up another gay sleuth novel since I’ve never been able to connect with any of those earlier characters.

Herren’s hero, Chanse MacLeod, use his intelligence and investigative skills to solve a mystery that involves murder and blackmail. He is obviously an attractive man although Herren doesn’t specify this in simple terms. Despite his good looks, MacLeod never resorts to seduction or hustling to unravel the mystery. In fact, the only reason his shirt ever comes off is to keep it from getting sweaty while he walks through the hot and humid streets of the French Quarter.

The murdered man, in Rue Dauphine, hires MacLeod just hours before he is killed, to find out who is blackmailing his lover, a very rich, closeted, married with kids, high-profile person at the top of the New Orleans celebrity list. When he goes to meet with his new client, MacLeod stumbles upon his body.

Chanse admits several times that murder is out of his league while being drawn deeper and deeper into the circumstances and intrigue that surround the death of a man nobody seemed to like and had plenty of reasons to get rid of him. He tries to distance himself from the case, citing frequently, “I don’t do murders”. However, he gets caught up in the local gay rights movement and shot at twice. His best friends, a reporter and a gay cop, help him sift through all the clues that seem to cloud the issue rather than solve it.

As I mentioned earlier, I am not a native of Louisiana but I did connect with MacLeod through his snarky and sometimes jaded viewpoints. I was disappointed to find out who the murder was, since I felt an even deeper connection with him, when MacLeod confronts him about his hustling. The male prostitute responds with pent-up anger and bitterness, which boils to the surface in a scene where I found his words closely reflected many of my own personal thoughts. Creepy yet I felt vindicated in a small way.

Herren builds suspense up through a near riot in Jackson Square and keeps the action at a feverish pace to the end.

Murder in the Rue Dauphine is a novel for all mystery lovers, even the readers who are not interested in gay literature. His story remains well inside everyone’s comfort zone.

I really am looking forward to the next Chanse MacLeod mystery.

If you have an interest in horoscopes and want to attempt to read the stars yourself, there are numerous astrology books available on the market. There are so many books that detail specific disciplines, beliefs and reading methods, that it can be hard to select a book that’s just right for you. In this article, we’ll suggest a few that can help you to read the stars.

When learning about it, it’s helpful to have one very detailed book to use as a reference. However, there are many good books on specific types of its practices, yet it’s difficult to find a high quality book that covers all aspects.

A good tome for the novice astrologer should have interpretations that are written in simple language and provides a lot of information about relationships. It should also have information on advanced astrology for when you are ready to explore more complicated theories and practices. Here are three good overall books that offer an introduction to this craze.

As far as astrology books go, “Parker’s Astrology” by Julia & Derek Parker, is a favorite among the astrology enthusiasts because of its wonderful images and concise information. It begins with the history of it, provides an overview of the solar system and introduces the foundational concepts.

The essence of each aspect of astrology is well explained and there is a section that instructs you on casting your own birth chart. There’s also a user-friendly planetary aspect finder in the back, plus astrological tables to use to look up your natal planets.

“The Only Astrology Book You’ll Ever Need” by Joanna Martinet Wool folk lives up to its title. This book has in-depth profiles of all the Sun signs, but explores other planets as well. While the book focuses on love and romance, it also covers history, myth and birth chart interpretation.

Most importantly, it is written in very clear, easy to understand language. Another great book, “Astrology for Yourself”, is both an introduction to the topic and a workbook for understanding your own birth chart.

This book starts at the beginning and expertly guides you toward a full understanding of your birth chart. The authors taught it and know how to introduce the topic step-by-step. For someone looking to explore their own interpretations, this book is ideal.

Cyberspace has become an effective alternative to traditional astrology books. The Internet has thousands of websites dedicated to this topic. Whether you’re looking for your daily horoscope or in depth information on the Chinese Zodiac or Indian astrology, you can find it online. It seems that more and more people are trying to get in touch with the spiritual side of their nature, and the web is responding to the demand.

Wholesale hats flow out to retailers across the States and around the globe. What is so intriguing about wholesale hats that stock the retail shops? Why can’t customers pass them by without trying them on, even it is only for fun?

Wholesale hats provide personality, individualism, and character. Yes, but we already know that. The deeper attraction is identification with heroes. Hats define so many heroes and retailers provide the statement that helps the common person identify with the heroes in their lives. Before you write this off as a plug for wholesale hats, read on and see if your heroes aren’t here.

First there’s the cowboy hat. These wholesale hats reach every age group. The older generation remembers John Wayne, Marshal Matt Dillon, and Captain Gus from Lonesome Dove. Maybe their interests go deeper to historical figures like Wild Bill Hickok, Wyatt Earp, or Buffalo Bill. The hat that dominates this look is the creation of John B Stetson who defined cowboy hats with his original design that he named “Boss of the Plains”. This wide brim felt with a high creased crown replaced the mix match of hats cowboys wore up until then and reached such popularity that Stetson was making over two million hats a year by 1886. This was the hat nearly every cowboy mentioned above wore and the style their admirers want today.

These are the heroes and cowboy hats that appeal to middle age and up, but what about the young? They have another set of heroes you find on MTV or in country music. When J-Lo and Britney Spears showed up in rolled straw cowboy hats a rage swept the country for this headwear. Do you think rolled straw cowboy hats on Willy Nelson and even more current, Kenny Chesney and Jessica Simpson don’t effect what their fans wear? Quite the contrary! Country music fans are big into the cowboy hats that look good on their idols.

Now what about the golfers? By the early 20th century, this sport so captivated public interest that the Sears & Roebuck catalog had pages of golf hats that looked like oversized newsboys. For Ben Hogan it was this or an ivy cap. Sam Snead was a fedora man and Greg Norman put the Aussie on the world map. How many seniors do you see on the golf course wearing the hat that made their favorite golfer look good? The connection between headwear and heroes seems to run so deep you never outgrow it.

The sports connection with hats doesn’t end there. Baseball caps need no introduction. This is the hat that everybody feels comfortable wearing today. When every man wore a fedora with his suit in the forties and fifties, all-stars like Ted Williams, Stan Musial, and Mickey Mantle were looking good in their ball caps and had a huge fan club. By the sixties fedoras were tossed aside and the cool headwear was ball caps. Since then ball caps haven’t missed a lick.

The there’s football fans. Coach Bear Bryant at Alabama and Tom Landry of the Dallas Cowboys probably inspired more guys to wear herringbone or houndstooth fedoras than all the advertising of Madison Avenue.

Next comes the movies that are always delivering a fresh batch of heroes. Indiana Jones is back at the theaters and even Cracker Barrel restaurants are selling adult size Indiana Jones fedoras. And the Great Gatsby? Fans go for the oversized ivy cap. Don’t forget Rocky in his porkpie. For the women, Angelina Jolie fans will have to have a cloche after they see The Changeling. Movies make a huge impact on hats and fashion in general.

Then there’s the vintage crowd and those that remember hats that mom and dad or grandma and grandpa wore. This stuff is soaked in happy childhood memories that wholesale hats revive-fedoras for men from the forties or fifties, pillboxes for ladies from the same era. What about those old family photos with cloches? When anyone sees a hat that rings a bell with childhood memories, they have to comment, they have to try it on, and often they have to buy it.

OK, kids don’t know anything about these hats, but they sure know celebrities. Think this doesn’t provide heroes that wholesale hats fulfill? You know it does-J-Lo’s wide brim floppy hat, Hillary Duff’s ivy cap, Britney’s fedora, or Brad Pitt’s newsboy. Here’s a wholesale hat market that goes on, and on, and on like the pink bunny.

So why do some of the wholesale hats that ship to wholesalers blow out while others hardly sell? Take cowboy hats in 2007. Many wholesalers as well as retail shops sold more cowboy hats in 2007 than any other style. Yet department stores reported cowboy hats as their worst performer in headwear. It comes back to knowing your market and playing to them. You wouldn’t expect the shopper searching for Ives St Laurent to be trying on rolled straw cowboy hats. By the same token, trendy shops catering to the young waste space displaying dress hats. Hats have to fit the market and relate to the heroes of that age group.

Somehow hats, more than any other accessory, help the average person take on the aura of bigger than life personalities that touch them. Often conscious, sometimes sub-conscious, the consumer gravitates to the hats that identify them with their heroes.

Mike Gietl has a 23 year association with Accessory Wholesale Inc which supplies wholesale hats to retail businesses including wholesale cowboy hats, casual hats, and dress hats.

Tarot is a system of guidance as well as divination that people can use to process dilemmas pertaining to career, family or relationships. Tarot readers are experts who can interpret the meaning of the cards picked by the inquirers and guide them towards a possible and probable solution. Tarot card readers are well acquainted with the meanings of the cards and Tarot spreads that are used while performing a tarot reading.

Tarot readers can be approached to gain a better perspective of the situation that the inquirers may find themselves in. They put forward their queries in front of the Tarot card reader one at a time. For each question, the reader asks the inquirer to pick up a few cards, which the reader lays face down in a pattern, known as the Tarot spread. There are hundreds of tarot spreads that the reader can choose from, including self-created ones. The cards are then placed in the same sequence as they were on the designated positions. The Tarot card reader now turns the cards over and interprets the overall picture presented by the combination of cards picked, their positions on the spreads and the numbers depicted in each of the cards.

People approach professional tarot card readers to inquire about various aspects of their lives. The main responsibility of a tarot card reader is to offer insights to people who have to seek answers for their seemingly overwhelming problems. Tarot shows possibilities and projections and offers advice, and does not conform to any writing on the wall.

It is advisable for people to ask specific questions to the Tarot card readers as loosely formed questions usually fetch vague responses. It is not necessary for people to approach a professional tarot card reader every time. They can buy any popular deck that appeals to them and can do a reading for them. People can also go online and get free as well as professional reading through various websites.

Tarot provides detailed information on Tarot, Free Tarot Readings, Tarot Reading, Tarot Cards and more. Tarot is affiliated with Reading Tarot Cards.

For the golf fanatic then they could have their name emblazoned across the Golfing Magazine. Who needs a silver trophy when you could present them with an engraved golf club or some trendy sporting cufflinks?

Songs of Praise
If you know someone who likes to practise the phrase “Tonight Matthew, I’m going to be…”, then surely it’s about time you indulged them with some musical acclaims of their own. The Music Legends Personalised calendars are a great opportunity for someone to see their name appearing on a CD or on their own dressing room backstage. For the real music fans, or even for someone that you share a special song with, then why not present them with a personalised framed disc? Just like the personalised calendars, these personalised gifts can become the main attractions in their very own music hall of fame.

Rings in the UK have become far more popular in the last few years. This is because the demand for rings has increased. This demand has come from the flood of people wanting to look more fashionable. People everywhere want to walk down the road and feel as if they have everything going for themselves. There are many things they can do to increase this but one thing they can certainly do is to purchase a ring. By doing this they not only feel great, but they look great too.

There are many rings customers can buy. Thousands of rings are manufactured every year. Not all rings make it to the stores however, as retailers simply will not put rings on display that they feel may be hard to sell. Strong brands such as Leo Diamond, Octelle DKNY, and Emporio Armani will always be put on display, initially because of the brand name but also because all the rings are worth putting on display.

The bigger and more established a brand is, the more likely it is that consumers will become aware. This is because a brand name offers regularity and a trustworthy image that consumers connect with. These brands quickly become very fashionable and demand rises rapidly for all the rings connected to these brands. If the brand not known, consumers may not find the ring as appealing – even if it is practically the same ring – and may look somewhere else.

Consumers are always craving the most modern rings. If these rings are paraded by celebrities, then the demand becomes even higher. People want to look and feel great as much of the time as possible and what better way to do this than by parading the ring of their favourite celebrity couple. One popular celebrity couple that people particularly aspire to is that of Victoria and David Beckham. If they wear lovely, popular, fashionable rings, chances are many other consumers will too.

There are many opportunities throughout the year when customers buy rings. This may be for them or it may be for a mate or a loved one. Either way, the more popular and fashionable a ring is the higher the chances that someone will buy it. Retailers will do their utmost to keep stock levels of these fashionable rings large to make sure they never run out. That said, if a ring is popular enough and people think the ring is fashionable chances are that consumers will grab it extremely fast.
