YOUR PERSONALIZED MARCH HOROSCOPE

/ Amanda Lee Burke / Leave a comment

March–the month of “Come in like a lion and go out like a lamb”–for sure lives up to that phrase the next 31 days, especially with Mercury stirring up for retrograde on March 5th. For those of you who are unsure, Mercury is the planet known to be the messenger, directing the ways we think, communicate and share information. Being the planet that’s closest to the Sun, this makes a whole lotta sense! And once this planet goes in retrograde, which she does three times a year for a good three weeks each time, communication, information and our thinking gets a little interrupted by universal forces! Just know, this month’s shenanigans aren’t totally your fault, but it’s for sure a time to reflect, be patient with your thoughts and words and take responsibility for the things we need to reconcile or grow from.

Here is a little guide on how to make it through:

april friendship horoscope zodiacs5

ARIES

We know you’re eager to get your goals started, business agreements signed, keeping your eye open for a possible new love interest… but the time isn’t now to be impulsive with your wants. Instead, look back to last month–was there anything you started you haven’t finished? Are you idea-jumping and not staying solid with one goal? Are you ready for a commitment or are you looking to just have some fun? Be aware of needs, rather than desires. Reflect deeply on your emotions, instincts and spirituality this month.

april friendship horoscope zodiacs4

TAURUS

This could be a month full of misread actions and confused communications for you dear vina, but don’t fret! This is truly a time for you to use your grounding skills, think before you speak, appreciate the simple things you have and the wonderful people around you and practice concentration. March presents you with a month that is dedicated to your self-development and you should most definitely own it and commit 100% to that! Key words for you this month: opportunity, community, connections–don’t pass up any experiences that will get you closer to your goals.

april friendship horoscope zodiacs2

GEMINI

Things may seem a bit overwhelming for you this month, and with Mercury being your ruling planet, it could seem as though everything and everyone is conspiring against you, but know that everyone is dealing with communication dead-ends just like you, and like everyone else, you have the power to uplift and transform those chaotic energies! Don’t lose sight of who you are and don’t take things too personal. Express yourself the best way you can through writing, dance, the arts or just leaning on a good friend to help support you could be a wonderful remedy. Keywords: friendships, reputation, organization.

april friendship horoscope zodiacs

CANCER

Not everyone is a mind reader or has the intuitive depth as you do, dear Cancer, so it’s up to you to put into words how you are truly feeling inside. Crave more time with your partner? Tell them. Don’t feel appreciated? Say it. Feeling a bit insecure? Talk to someone close about it and focus on communicating with inner clarity. By the end of the month, while others may be feeling a bit introverted, you might feel quite opposite, and crave company. This is a good time to head out on vina date with the vinas who support you and make you feel appreciated. Have fun and let loose! Key words: Clarity, insights, expression.

april friendship horoscope zodiacs3

LEO

Your creative ideas have been flourishing, but getting the ideas into action has been sort of an obstacle for you. With Mercury shaking things up in the communication realm, you might feel roadblock for your goals and creativity, but what most of us don’t realize is retrogrades are actually very beneficial for our growth. In fact, it’s especially a great time for us to get deep within, reflect and plan out your goal strategy. Remain self-assured, good things are coming! Key words: Transformation, attraction, projects.

april friendship horoscope zodiacs7

VIRGO

Obsessing over the little things, the big things, the faults of others, your irritations–this all must come to an end for the month of March. Dear Virgo, we know you mean well, but with your ruling planet heading into retrograde, there’s no point in throwing gas on the fire and have others misinterpret every word, your advice, opinions (or nitpick ;)) you say. Use that energy to head within–has your mind been feeling a bit chaotic or on overload? Letting go of the things that don’t include you (meaning taking on other’s issues) could be the best remedy for you this month. Key words: Partnerships, relationships, break free.

april friendship horoscope zodiacs10

LIBRA

You work so hard to keep the peace, and lately it seems like more of a job for you, Libra lady. Certain energies this month may interfere with your tranquil energies in your love life and relationships, but by remaining patient with yourself, it can help keep the balance. Remember to be there for your own needs! This retrograde might start out with a bit of chaos, so stay organized and double check career deliverables. Work on staying on top of your business and career this month. Key words: Self-care, routines, service to others.

april friendship horoscope zodiacs11

SCORPIO

Energies are intense! You can feel it a mile away. Maybe it’s affecting you in your love life, career, friendships–but either way, be careful not to lash out on impulse because you will regret it later. This is a good time to slow down and take some private time to yourself. Maybe take a mental health day, a car ride through nature, a day full of Netflix and chill. Whatever it is, keep your energies balanced and focus on slowly pursuing your goals. No rush to the finish line! Key words: Creativity, sexuality, reflection.

april friendship horoscope zodiacs9

SAGITARIUS

You might be craving some fun this month, whether that’s in the bedroom or out with your best vinas, and the universe is on your side with your desire! Hit the streets with your vinas or hit the sheets with some new positions with your partner. While others are juggling the obstacles of Mercury’s retrograde, you’re loving every minute of it! But what’s new? Sagittarius’ are always open to transforming and learning new things. So have fun this month and let your natural charm radiate. Key words: Empathy, pursuits, knowledge.

april friendship horoscope zodiacs8

CAPRICORN

You seem to be stirring the pot this month, anxious Capricorn! With your desire to show off at work, your need for extra attention and spice with your partner, plus your craving of something new–you may piss certain people off this month. Starting with your S.O. If you seem bored in your relationship, make some time for romance this week. Light some candles and remind yourself why you decided to be in this commitment. For our single Caps, around the 20th, you might have your eyes on a certain someone who could be a lifetime mate! Instead of boiling up your energy at work and causing some tension, head to the gym or a yoga class and start a new regimen. Key words: Intentions, romance, mindfulness.

april friendship horoscope zodiacs6

AQUARIUS

We know you love your alone time and while this is a great month to practice some solitude, remembering to balance out the time you give can also be beneficial. To our committed vinas in a relationship, remember to schedule some cuddle time with your partner, and to our single vinas, head to a coffee shop with an artistic friend to collab on some creative ideas! You’ll desire to delve into self-development or esoteric learnings, which will lead you into some emotional healing needs this month. Key words: Values, enlightenment, partnerships.

april friendship horoscope zodiacs12

PISCES

Your spiritual side is calling this month and truthfully, it could be the best thing for you! As energies become intense, it best for you to focus on serenity and ways to keep your emotions balanced. You feel a need to deepen your understanding of yourself and the world, and the more time you spend focusing on this need, you might find your creativity is sparked! Remember to be mindful of other’s feelings. Being as sensitive you are, you might find you close yourself off to certain energies (which is okay, as boundaries are needed!), but remember to be there for those who love you and need you. Key words: Dream work, self-love, compassion.

JUPITER’S MOVE INTO SAGITTARIUS: WHAT DOES IT MEAN FOR YOU?

/ Vicky S / Leave a comment

Ah, sweet Jupiter. The largest of our solar system’s planets sure packs a positive punch when it comes to astrology. And it’s time get excited, vinas. Tomorrow, November 8th the majestic planet will be shifting signs, ending over a year-long transit in Scorpio to begin a new cycle in the sign that he traditionally rules, Sagittarius. And he’ll stay at home in Sagittarius until December 2019. Jupiter is known to expand everything he touches, but what does the mighty planet’s jump from the water sign to the fire sign mean for you? Hold tight, vinas and let’s take a peek at where Jupiter’s luck will shine for you over the next twelve months….

SCORPIO

Lucky Scorpio – you have been encountering a dusting of Jupiter’s sparkly stardust since last October. Expansion has likely focused on improving your outer self and how you’re perceived by the world. Your persona has likely undergone some positive (but not always easy) transformations over the last few years. Jupiter has been helping you to decide how you want to go out into the world and express your true self, enabling you to let go of what doesn’t serve you and shining a light on your unique talents. The second house focus of this transit highlights your personal finance, earning systems, and your possessions. Now Jupiter is moving into the second house of Taurus, your focus will be on improving your financial situation which will flow naturally from your renewed self-worth and self-esteem. Whatever talents you’ve been wanting to share with the world, now is the time to make the push forward and grow!

SAGITTARIUS

It’s almost your birth time of year, sweet Sagittarius! And what better excuse to celebrate than the return of Jupiter to your sign, the place he so happily rules? Yes, jovial Jupiter is back at home! Last seen in Sagittarius back in 2006 & 2007, his return after an 11 year hiatus means expansion is about to become reality for you – and you’ll feel it in so many ways. What do you most want? This time is about what really drives you, whether that be a job, travel, study, new relationship or new house etc., Jupiter is showering you with the luck and sprinkling on the glitter to make it all happen! Many of you will have been focusing on some type self-healing over the last year and Jupiter is acknowledging the hard work you’ve done. Your self-confidence and sunny optimism is coming back, Sagittarius. Make the most of having beautiful Jupiter at home, illuminating the path for you this coming year. Travel, study, learning a new language, and joining a group of like-minded people all bode so well for you. Just don’t take on more than you can manage!

CAPRICORN

Having experienced Saturn’s transit through Sagittarius back in 2017, which was a difficult time of internal soul searching for some Capricorns, Jupiter is now bringing much more lightness to your inner world in your 12th house, meaning you are increasingly interested in expanding your inner world and exploring your hidden talents. It might be that you’re looking to help others through a worthy cause or a plight, or perhaps you’re feeling driven to further research a subject which has fascinated you for a long while. Subjects like astrology have much to offer you right now, when it comes to self-learning and insight. Your dreams may be more vivid lately – start a dream diary to document what your unconscious mind is trying to tell you. This is a time for expansion on a spiritual level and you will be drawn to all that is hidden. Allow yourself to explore this inner world through art, meditation, yoga and self-affirmations. This is an excellent time to cleanse your inner self and let go of past hurts to heal your inner child and move forward with renewed faith.

AQUARIUS

As a naturally inquisitive person who is fascinated by what makes people tick, this 11th house transit is going to ensure you meet people who inspire and uplift you, helping you to become a better person and expand your mental and physical horizons. How is that possible? Well, through your participation in groups, movements and new (possibly unusual) friendships will form, and suddenly your world will start to expand in ways you never imagined. Your close friendship group may also grow now – get checking that Vina app! It’s through pursuing the things that bring a spring to your step that you’ll meet inspirational types, and your soul will sing! Be it a hobby, supporting a not-for-profit, or simply being there for people who need your care. That inner glow of goodness is drawing others in. What started as a hobby may turn into a venture, or you may be asked to step up your responsibilities in any group you are a part of. You’re more than capable and admirable, Aquarius! Jupiter is giving his blessing to your new connections.

PISCES

Jupiter is beautifully illuminating your 10th house of ambition and career, Pisces. This could mean a year of fun and much achievement professionally, and a time of excellent camaraderie with colleagues, both at work and socially. Or are you about to embark on a much-anticipated career break? Whatever it is you have planned, it’s a case of money and pleasure combining to make happy times for you. If your career has been stagnant, get ready for some positive changes which come about through Jupiter’s transit of your tenth house. Whatever happens during Jupiter’s transit to your tenth house will clear the way to a positive career for you in the coming years. Whether it’s extra responsibility at work, or more of a work/life balance you’re looking for, Jupiter is working behind the scenes to make it happen for you. Welcome the changes with open arms!

ARIES

As a freedom loving sign, Jupiter’s move into your ninth house will be a welcome visit, opening your mind to new and exciting possibilities. Be it travel, study, or self-expansion. You will be feeling more philosophical about life than usual and this will be uplifting to those around you. But be careful not to take on more than you can complete, as you may be feeling more optimistic and altruistic than usual. People from diverse cultures will bring new perspectives to your life, expanding your horizons to new and exciting opportunities. With such a positive outlook, you’ll be able to achieve lots. Set yourself some ambitious goals. This year is truly about expansion, both physical and mental!

TAURUS

Jupiter’s arrival in your eighth house of shared resources and power is helping to ease any power struggles you have had in recent times around issues including joint finances, loans, and taxes. This marks a positive change for you financially in many ways, Taurus. Jupiter’s transit here will also allow a personal transformation of all kinds in psychological matters, giving you to a chance to practice self-healing and to relate to and support loved ones on an emotional level, allowing for a deeper level of intimacy and connection. A bright light shines on any shared resources that you have, be it with loved ones, family, or business partners.

astro 2

GEMINI

How better to start a Jupiter transit to the seventh house of partnerships than with those who mean the most to you, Gemini? Significant others and partnerships are being highlighted over the next year. Could an engagement be on the way? Or perhaps the proposal has already happened, and the excitement of wedding planning is brewing nicely. If you’re unattached, Jupiter could present someone who seems perfect for you. On a platonic level, a business partnership could suddenly improve or become a reality. This period is about a meeting of like minds, and building partnerships based on mutual care, communication, and trust. You’re moving to a lovely place of understanding and relating in your life, Gemini. Jupiter gives you reason to believe in partnerships, love, and romance. Oh, and you’ll enjoy some play too!

CANCER

If you’ve been feeling a little heavy of late, Cancer, this could be due to some of the outer planets in hard angles to your natal sun. Jupiter makes a welcome visit to your 6th house, giving you a light respite from the responsibilities you’ve perhaps felt weighing heavy over you in the last few months. The sixth house is the house of daily routines, work, and health and all these areas are ones that are asking for your attention this year – for the better. Improvements and reward will come from reviewing your daily routine and making time for self-care, exercise, nutrition, and being of service to others. Colleagues or employees may prove to be beneficial to you this coming year.

LEO

It’s time to play, lively Leo! The lush lioness of the zodiac, you certainly enjoy letting your mane down and having fun every so often. Whether it be with your vinas, or your kids. And this transit is all about lighthearted fun. You’re more magnetic than usual (is that, like, even possible?) and people are drawn to your sunny personality. Time to magic up some new sun-filled friendships, lighthearted romantic interests, or new creative endeavors. Your creativity and self-expression are heightened significantly at this time. It’s definitely a great time to create whatever your heart desires. From a piece of art, to planning a new family, the fifth house transit of Jupiter blesses pleasure seeking activities.

VIRGO

The fourth house focus of Jupiter’s transit is illuminating your roots, family, and home matters, virtuous Virgo. What does home mean to you? And what do you need to change to make your home, well, more homey? What steps can you take to feel more at home, both physically and emotionally? Are you happy where you live? If not, a move could certainly be in the cards for you this year, Virgo. Home and family matters are well starred for you over the coming year. You may be spending more time with family or those you consider family, and attending to family matters or events. The focus of Jupiter could mean a focus on nostalgia, perhaps uncovering childhood issues or discovering interesting stories about your family’s history. A key factor this transit is establishing security, and you will take steps to put down roots which bring you peace of mind and stability.

LIBRA

Jupiter’s visit to your third house promises a busy year of being very much in demand, lovely Libra. Siblings, study, communications, and writing are all in the spotlight for you this year. Are you ready for your circle of close friends to want even more of your presence? Yes, that’s right, with your natural charm, amazing sense of style, tact, and diplomacy skills, there are many people wanting a slice of your time this year. Messages, short trips, and gifts are all well starred for you during this transit. But make sure you prioritize some down time to recover! Family times are well starred, as are get-togethers. If you don’t have anything planned yet, your siblings may be the ones to pleasantly surprise you! And if that isn’t enough for you, your neighbors or those who live close by may become more involved in your life too – the more the merrier!

YOUR NOVEMBER HOROSCOPE!

/ Amanda Lee Burke / Leave a comment

Mystical energies still fill the cool air after our fun, imagination-filled but slightly bumpy month of October. There might have been some desire to stay in our Halloween costumes a bit longer and just escape the real world- believe me, I feel the same! But behold, there is so much MORE to happen this coming month of November!

November is a month full of intensities, occult studies, prepping the body full of hearty foods and being thankful for all that your life has to offer! But beware of this month’s planetary rotations, as Venus finally goes direct November 16th after being in retrograde since October 5th which might’ve impacted our love lives, finances and impulses. Meanwhile, Neptune sets direct November 24th after being in retrograde since June 18th (whew, that was a long one) which might’ve caused us sensitivity, a bit of vulnerability and a weakening of our emotional boundaries with others. So as our hearts begin amending, our communication (it’s Mercury’s turn to be in retrograde) and our patience (Uranus sets in retrograde November 6th) will have to take the backseats. Lesson to be learned here? Hang on tight for more self discoveries, relationship and career awareness and a bit more karma to work through this month. The Universe obviously has a lot more to teach us!

SCORPIO

As we enter the month of your rebirth, it is only your nature to want to reflect on rejuvenating, renewing and reawakening the soulful and intense energies you hold within and express it to the world! You may have a lot you want to establish this month and the creative alignment of the universe is here for you to get started and let it all out. Mars, which was your ruling planet until 1930, will play a huge role in your desire and passion this month, gifting you with an energy that is determined to fulfill your dreams. Though there will be moments this month that might get difficult, know this is all needed to make you stronger and wiser. A little advice for this month? Delve into your spiritual studies and healing and stay away from drama, as Uranus and Mercury will set in retrograde, making communication pretty exhausting and somewhat sticky.

SAGITTARIUS

Even if the past few months have created some ups and downs for you, it seems the stars are aligning just for you and you’re really coming into your true self! Nothing can hold you back. Leave the negative, self-critical thoughts behind, because this year can be YOUR YEAR to manifest your dreams. November will be quite a spiritual time for you, with Scorpio flowing into your 12th house of dreams, subconscious mind, and intuition. Libra season was a fun, flirty and reflection-filled time, and this month will put actions to your thoughts and desires. Tune into your psychic ability this month, as it will grant you the positive visions of your future. And if you find yourself a bit hesitant with which direction you would like to go in life – write down some of your goals before you hit the sheets, place the list under your pillow and allow your dreams to send you some signs. It’s all about connecting with your inner-spirit this month!

CAPRICORN

Dear Cap, you are at a time in your life where you are craving knowledge and desiring to live a more positive life, free of negative thoughts and people. You’ve been working a whole lot on yourself because of these desires, and luckily the month of November will present you with much discoveries and awakenings which will enlighten your future path. November will also be a pretty social month for you and might even inspire some volunteering to help those who are in need or help the environment- creating new experiences are not only great for your personal growth, but can also mark as a great resume booster! With much good karma coming your way, especially at the end of the month, your financial savings may also soar! So keep your energies high, the drama low and your hard work will keep – literally – paying off! $$$

AQUARIUS

November is a month of reawakenings for you, Aquarius with much concentration on your career and personal growth. There is much opportunity for connecting with like-minded people who may benefit your career status or provide much knowledge (which you so naturally crave) in that area. Although this is a great time for learning and new experiences, don’t make any huge decisions. Rather, just use this month as a meditation on your long-term goals. Network, enjoy some fun-filled vina dates and be mindful of your ambitions and your achievements. Some reflections on your family life may come to play and since this is the month built on thankfulness, be grateful for those in your life who celebrate and love you. Steer clear of wanting to voice any opinions that can cause some tensions. Stick with positivity only!

PISCES

Ahh, our gentle Pisces is at a moment in the Universe where they may be pursuing travel, wisdom, mental exploration, and a desire to just be happy above all else! Usually focused on the emotional needs of others, your current being is more interested in your own pursuits and emotional needs and leaving the past all the way in the past. Make room for this new and ambitious gal, because you have much to conquer this year. Some relationships might be tested this month. And as Mercury sets in retrograde, it is best to be straightforward when communicating your need for the sake of some good ole YOU time, rather than causing stress between you and your loved ones by forcing time together. It is okay, dear Pisces, to not always cater to everyone’s needs for once. With so much going on in the Universe, it’s best to not make any drastic travel plans (even though you’re craving a faraway getaway) or huge career changes just yet, but do know your time will come. Sooner than you think. 😉

ARIES

You are feeling pretty fiery this month, Aries. And after some of the hectic emotions of libra season, you are now ready to put the old to rest and make room for the new. You deserve to set your goals high and standards higher! Inner-work is always good for you to be mindful of and though you may be full of fire this month, let your aggression towards others die out a bit and practice a new approach. With an open, peaceful mind, you can be in store for some great luck and happiness this season. Accept the things you cannot change, but know things happen and make us only stronger in the end. Tune into your intellectual, connect with good-hearted people and allow the sensual scorpion energies fill your 5 senses!

TAURUS

You may be extra sensitive to others this month. Partnerships, relationships and how to mend any sores related to the two seem to be more on your mind, rather than your own personal wellness. You’re trying to adjust to people, places and things and make sense of it all. But some things are better left to be as they are. If we go around trying to make everyone else happy and healthy, it could really affect our own personal health and leave us feeling depleted. Your heart is in the right place, but boundaries must be created! Balance must be practiced. With all this rapid, high energy going on, head into your spiritual studies- yoga is your friend! You are in a social state this month, so connect with good, like-minded people. Meditation or art classes are the perfect settings to meet a BFF or soulmate- which this coming year sees in store for you. 😉 Surround yourself with beauty, positivity and the things that make you feel alive lovely Taurus, you deserve it.

GEMINI

All of your hard work has been paying off and coming to fruition! This month will bring all of your accomplishments to light which will present you with even more opportunities! But be careful in certain communication aspects as your ruling planet is heading in retrograde and might interfere with any plans or goals you have set this month. Don’t get too discouraged if some things don’t go as planned. The best advice for this month would be not to rush anything and to go about your days in a more relaxing pace. Your daily routine might be a bit off balance, but being mindful of your health and wellness will be beneficial. Maybe a little mind and body detox can do the trick. On the 23rd, the full moon falls into your sign, making you feel youthful and adventurous! A little getaway is in your future.

CANCER

The month is looking pretty exciting and eventful for you, dearest Cancer. New job opportunities are on the way. Keep your dreams high and inspire your creative side! Maybe you’re over your current repetitive lifestyle and crave something fun and adventurous. Well, now until mid-November is the time to focus your mind on things that will make you feel happy and alive. Health can also play a role at the end of the month, but by simply enjoying life – such energies are a gift to your healing. Also by the end of November, you’re ready to put in the work to land that dream job of yours and your finances will also look on the bright side! The universe seems to be aligning for you, so be patient if things seem to be bumpy now. To lighten the mood and your mind, grab your girls and try a wax and wine class! Get social and be open to new experiences!

LEO

Home, family, emotional wellness may be your main focus for most of this month, which will help create the foundations needed for you to moving things forward in your love life and career aspirations. As Venus sets in forward motion on the 16th, things will start looking up for you! Making you feel more social and ready to mingle. For our Leos in relationships, now is a good time to head out with your significant other for a special date night or for our single Leos, set up a fun-filled vina date! You never know who you may meet. Take advantage of your creativity, being one of the most creative signs of the zodiac, it’s time to shine a light on those artistic ideas of yours! However, with Mercury heading into retrograde around the 17th, try to be mindful of your spending habits and any too-good-to-be-true opportunities. It is best to use this time to create foundations rather than jumping for new opportunities, but know you’re time will come.

VIRGO

Many changes seem to be approaching and most of these changes are internal and emotional. You have been working on your patience with the events going on in your immediate surroundings and it shows! A natural caretaker, your main focus for the next two months are on your home and family- which doesn’t seem out of the ordinary for you. You may be contemplating moving forward in a certain relationship, maybe thinking about a small getaway with your friends or family, what you want to do career-wise, and ways to optimize your health. These are all great things to think about! But as your ruling planet sets in retrograde mid-November, plans might not go exactly how you’d like them to. So avoid any actions until December- which will be a very action packed month for you! Keep your health on radar and it might be best for you to practice some self-love remedies.

LIBRA

Change is a good thing, but might seem scary at first. This month might stir the pot in a few different areas for you. Your love, financial, communication, and education might be out of your ordinary, but in a way that is good. As a Libra, you are always looking for the beauty in new experiences and this is the time to do so, even if it seems way out of your comfort zone. Has your intuition been a little extra lately? Trust in your gut instincts and natural knowing of things. This month is a great time to delve deep within your spiritual practices and balance your emotions. Financially, you will have some peaks this month and know your goals are being achieved! As your ruling planet sets direct, you will feel much confidence and charm attracting some attention from a certain someone. Let it all out, dear Libra! You deserve to reach for the stars!

YOUR FALL FRIENDSHIP HOROSCOPE

/ Vicky S / Leave a comment

The seasons are a changing! Yep, that’s right vinas, we’ve now officially shifted into fall and the warm glow of summer sunshine has been replaced by crisp autumnal air, vibrant oranges, deep reds and golden yellow leaves, tasty comfort foods (who doesn’t love a hearty pumpkin soup?) and the fun and frivolity of Halloween on the horizon!

As the Sun begins its cycle through the sign of balance and harmony, Libra, we also have a Harvest Moon–the full moon closest to the autumnal equinox. This is the perfect time of year to clear out any baggage, be it physical, mental or emotional, before the imminent arrival of winter. But what should you expect this fall, dear vinas? We’ve got your personalized friendship horoscope to take you through to the end of October.

LIBRA (SEPTEMBER 23 – OCTOBER 22)

Happy birthday and solar return, lovely Libran vinas! It’s your time to shine, as the Sun is traveling through your first house of self, identity and new beginnings until October 24th.  As the sign of balance, you’ll likely be pondering what changes are needed to freshen things up and bring equilibrium to your life. Be it a new haircut, a DIY home makeover or a change of career and direction, your vinas will be on hand to offer support and encouragement. You’re feeling particularly social this month, meaning it’s a great time to join a new group of vinas doing like-minded things–be it yoga, art or music. Think beauty and harmony. Anything that keeps you balanced, relaxed and entertained is a bonus!

SCORPIO (OCTOBER 23 – NOVEMBER 21)

It’s almost that time of year! With the Sun cycling through your twelfth house of the unconscious mind, key themes for you this month may include escapism, spirituality, and frustration. You’re finishing up a 12-month cycle, and on October 24th, the sun will move into Scorpio. In late October, you’re likely to be quite inward focused; reviewing your goals (or for some Scorpios, a perceived lack of) over the last year. Go easy on yourself, as there is a lot to be positive about! Recognize the progress you’ve made this year, and also acknowledge the new vinas you’ve welcomed into your world. If you haven’t already, you’re likely on the cusp of starting something new, and there are people who will recognize your talents. With Jupiter and Venus in your sign, luck shines on you–share your ideas with your vinas and get going, gal!

SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER 22 – DECEMBER 21)

On September 24th, the sun made its move into your 11th house of community, large groups and friends. At this time, anything linked positively to your hopes, goals, wishes and associations or humanitarian interests are well starred for you. Yet with a host of planets in Scorpio transitioning your 12th house, you may be feeling a little at odds–wanting to socialize and be optimistic but feeling more subdued and self-reflective than usual. So how about joining a group and learning something you’ve always wanted? As well as meeting some new vinas, you’ll be nurturing yourself too. Try meditation, mindfulness and Eastern practices. You won’t regret it!

CAPRICORN (DECEMBER 22 – JANUARY 19)

The sun starts its annual move through your tenth house of career and ambition this month. As an innately ambitious and sure-footed sign, this is music to your ears! Perhaps you’re hoping for a promotion, considering a new job or thinking of setting up on your own. Progress can be made now, though you may feel it has been slower than usual. This is due to Saturn resting in Capricorn, the teacher of patience. Vinas will happily provide moral support and words of wisdom to help keep you on track to achieving your goals. Luck will come from events and memberships, so get those plans booked!

AQUARIUS (JANUARY 20 – FEBRUARY 18)

The sun makes its annual visit to your 9th house of travel, philosophy and overseas connections so you’re feeling inspired, Aquarius. Perhaps you’ve just come back from a trip or are eager to plan another, or you’re looking to start a new course. Ever the eternal student – it’s a great time to start studying, especially with Mars in your first house. Career is at the forefront, so meeting vinas who are likely to come through work, travel and learning connections is a must! An altruist by nature, link with vinas who inspire your world vision, push you intellectually and drive you to be a better person. Through your friendships you’ll expand your life in so many ways.

PISCES (FEBRUARY 19 – MARCH 20)

The sun cycles your eighth house during late September and into October. This may feel like a heavy time for you, Pisces, as you may be sorting out things you’ve put off or dealing with issues around joint resources, finances and taxes. You may also be considering investing with a partner or pooling together in some way. Once these areas are in check, it’s also a great time of year to plan a getaway, near or far; a break is well starred for you. How about a weekend away with your fave vinas? Luck is on your side with travel, so perhaps you’ll meet likeminded vinas on your voyage!

ARIES (MARCH 21 – APRIL 19)

Matters of the heart are the focus of the Sun’s transit to your seventh house of partnerships. And this means partnerships of all kinds. If you’re in a relationship, romance is on the cards–this is a great time to switch off your cell phones and enjoy some precious time together, or book yourselves a table at your fave restaurant and indulge in a romantic meal. Or how about a couples’ date with your vina and her S/O? You might be talking about pooling joint resources – that house you’ve seen? Go for it! If you’re single, time to get out and mingle! An introduction from a vina could be the start of something special. It’s also a great time for vinas to come together and plan joint ventures together.

TAURUS (APRIL 20 – MAY 20)

Are you feeling a little run down and in need of a bit of R&R, Taurus? If you’ve been busy being there for everyone but yourself, or if social butterfly syndrome has taken its toll on your health, then it’s probably because of the Sun’s transit to your sixth house. Time to focus on good nutrition, sleep and a new exercise regime. Although things may still feel a bit unsettled and you will still need to be of service to that special someone or even a troubled vina in your life (they could be your main source of worry), come late October/November things should ease up and you’ll be able to enjoy some much-needed relaxation time!

GEMINI (MAY 21 – JUNE 20)

The fifth house is the star of the show from September 24th for you, Gemini. The good news is that this house is about being yourself and enjoying life to the fullest! Self-expression and hobbies are key, and when the fun is shared with vinas (double trouble, perfect for a dual sign), even better! Whatever you’ve been putting off doing, now is a great time to enjoy it. But be careful of over indulgence with food and drink – heart-centred entertainment is the key here. Find something that heals your soul and get that fun planned with your favorite vinas. Be sure not to overdo it, and as with so many planets in Scorpio keep a check on any niggling health issues. Make sure you’re looking out for yourself.

CANCER (JUNE 21 – JULY 22)

The sun’s move into Libra on September 24th is lighting up your fourth house of home, family and roots. Perhaps there’s a family celebration or anniversary on the cards, it certainly seems family matters are on your mind. If you’re in need of advice where family is concerned, vinas will be happy to help. Make time for your family whether they are close or far, for their friendship and support is what you need. In lending an ear for them you’ll be enriched. This can be a light-hearted time with luck on your side, as Venus in Scorpio highlights your fifth house of creativity and entertainment.

LEO (JULY 23 – AUGUST 22)

On September 24th, the Sun moved into your third house meaning that short journeys, communication, schools and siblings are all themes coming to the forefront. If you have children, perhaps there’s a heightened buzz of activity around school clubs and groups. This could be the perfect place to meet with like-minded vinas and moms with big ambitions for their kids – a fabulous match for your Lioness pride! If children don’t figure in your life, perhaps you’re planning something with siblings – communications are starred with Venus in your fourth house of home, so this is the time of year to reminisce. It’s also the perfect opportunity to kick-start your plans for a fabulous family get together this coming season!

VIRGO (AUGUST 23 – SEPTEMBER 22)

With the Sun’s arrival in the sign of the scales, Libra, your focus has shifted to the things you own, including money and possessions. Where are things out of balance in your life? The focus is on your hidden talents, self-esteem and worth. It’s a great time to re-assess what you have and where you’d like to be, with 2019 just around the corner. What help do you need to get where you want to be? Remember to search inside as well as out. Seek advice of vinas close to you on direction and planning – Venus and Jupiter highlight your third house, so short journeys, groups and communications via social media will also provide much-needed inspiration and luck.

/ Vicky S / 3 Comments

Long, light days and warm, balmy nights. Yep, it’s officially summertime, vinas.

And as a new month starts (happy July!), we’ve got your personalized summer friendship horoscope. Read on!

CANCER (JUNE 21 – JULY 22)

april friendship horoscope zodiacs
Happy Solar Return, dear Cancer! On July 22, the Sun will make its yearly move into your sign, which means this summer is your time to shine. The Sun in your sign and Jupiter in your fifth house of pleasure highlights that this is a time for fun! Perhaps your new vinas will bring a childlike spirit and playfulness back into your life. And why not? It’s time to laugh, smile and let your hair down. Why not invite your vinas over and get creative together? This summer should be all about trying new things and living boldly.

LEO (JULY 23 – AUGUST 22)

april friendship horoscope zodiacs3

On the 22nd of July, the Sun makes its annual return to your sign, and June has marked the last part of your 12-month solar return cycle. So, it’s likely that you’ll be in the process of tying a few things in preparation for the coming solar return year, which arrives around your birthday. Mercury is in your sign until late July, so you’re feeling more gregarious and chattier than usual. Make the most of this and use it as a time to get to know new vinas—whether it’s over long drinks on summer nights or a quick coffee shop chat. You’ll have your vinas spellbound with your words! With Mars in your opposite sign until mid-August, just be extra careful that you don’t say the wrong things and upset a few close friends. If you’re feeling especially annoyed by someone, find an outlet to expend the anger, such as going for a run.

VIRGO (AUGUST 23 – SEPTEMBER 22)

april friendship horoscope zodiacs7

Venus makes its annual move into your sign on July 11 and will remain there until August 6, meaning that it’s a great time to show your friends a little love. As the sign of service to others, why not surprise your vinas with something thoughtful? Or offer a helping hand with a project or something you know has been weighing heavy on them? The favor will be returned, so you’ll be happy you offered. With Venus highlighting your 11th house of dreams and aspirations, friendships are easily made in groups, clubs or organizations, even through professional networking events. Make sure to get involved with everything that inspires you—there will be vinas who can offer fascinating perspectives and perhaps new opportunities you’d never imagined.

LIBRA (SEPTEMBER 23 – OCTOBER 22)

april friendship horoscope zodiacs10

Venus moves into your sign on August 7th, making you extra magnetic! This the perfect time to get together with your vinas who mean the most to you. As a Venus-ruled sign, you’ll want enjoy life’s luxuries together. Book yourselves a pampering massage session for two, indulge in delicious meal with your drink of choice. Or if you’ve both got a sweet tooth, how about a chocolate tasting session or chocolate making class? Indulgence is your friendship theme for the summer. Just make sure you’re focused on the finer things like food, drink and good company. You deserve it, vina!

SCORPIO (OCTOBER 23 – NOVEMBER 21)

april friendship horoscope zodiacs11

Jupiter, the planet of luck and expansion, is in your sign until this autumn, bringing you luck and an extra sparkle, which will ensure that you’re in the right place at the right time. Lucky you! Now is the perfect time to get to know your vinas and share some of your success and luck. The Sun is also highlighting your ninth house of travel, foreign lands and study, so perhaps it’s time to start learning something new. Shoot for the stars! New vinas can be made while pursuing a passion or hobby and we know how passionate you are, dear Scorpio. How about learning a new language? This could be a fantastic way to find some new vinas and ignite a passion for a new country and culture.

SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER 22 – DECEMBER 21)

april friendship horoscope zodiacs9

For Sag vinas, the focus is on matters of the eighth house this summer. There may money issues to attend to or power and status to contend with at work. Or perhaps you’re looking to make new investments. Either way, you’re busy with communications, research and reading. Be sure to take a break when you need one though, since t’s important to recharge your batteries. Or perhaps you’ve had so much going on that you haven’t had a chance to plan a vacation yet. How about a long weekend away with your vinas? Late July and August are great times for you to get away. Enjoy!

CAPRICORN (DECEMBER 22 – JANUARY 19)

april friendship horoscope zodiacs8

The Sun is now in your seventh house of relationships, nurturing and security. Is there a potential to form a partnership with your significant other? Or could you team up with a close vina to work on an exciting new venture? If your new enterprise will play on your strengths and bring out the best of your relationship, give it a go! New connections and vinas who you meet this summer are great for longevity. Mars is in your second house of material possessions, money and gains, so make the most of this time and your relationships. Your S.O. and vinas could be a reliable source of support in carving out your success. And with Saturn transiting Capricorn, your hard work will pay off, slowly but surely. Be sure to celebrate any successes, however small, with your loved ones. It’s the small victories that matter!

AQUARIUS (JANUARY 20 – FEBRUARY 18)

april friendship horoscope zodiacs6

Mars is in your sign until August 12, making July a wonderful time to kick start the things that you’ve had on your bucket list. Or perhaps you’re feeling re-energized about a hobby.  This summer is an exciting time to meet like-minded vinas with shared passions, especially philanthropic in nature. Why not volunteer for a local charity or plan some fun fundraising for your favorite non-profits. You may have a futuristic idea which has potential to develop, so bounce ideas around with your vinas and work on that plan! The emphasis is on finances too, so you’re likely to be very successful if looking to raise funds. And if you share the fun with your vinas, the sky is the limit!

PISCES (FEBRUARY 19 – MARCH 20)

april friendship horoscope zodiacs12

The Sun moves into your fifth house of creativity this month, staying until July 22 when the focus moves to work and health matters. So this summer is a wonderful time to get together with like-minded vinas and try something new. Children can be a major source of inspiration and fun at this time, if not your own, then perhaps your vina’s siblings, nephews and nieces. If you and your vinas have kids, how about a family day? Music, dance, and arts will all bring immense pleasure and enrichment. Around July 3 and 9, the transitioning Sun will create a grand water trine with Jupiter, which will make a harmonious aspect to your sign. It will be a content summer for you!

ARIES (MARCH 21 – APRIL 19)

april friendship horoscope zodiacs5

The Sun is in your fourth house during July, moving into your fifth in late July and August. The emphasis during summertime is on your home and family. Spending precious time with family and loved ones may be most important to you at this time. Perhaps you’re going on a family vacation or you’ve been spending more time with your mom or cousins, but either way, time spent with family matters are well-needed. Fun with your vinas comes more into focus with the move into your fifth house at the end of July. This is when your time for creativity and fun starts. Venus moves into Libra on August 6, meaning there’s a focus on quality time with your significant other. If you’re single, there’s the possibility of a new relationship. Slay, vina, slay!

TAURUS (APRIL 20 – MAY 20)

april friendship horoscope zodiacs4

Things may have started to feel a little bit unpredictable or unsettled with the move of Uranus into your sign for the first time since 1942, but you have to hold tight … it’s there until April 2026! With this visit being such a long one, it’s a good time to embrace any changes it brings, which promise excitement and better things for you. The focus in July is on third house matters, so you’ll be busy with communications, such as incoming messages, calls and emails. Perhaps you’re making plans with a sibling or vinas. If you’re looking to meet like-minded vinas, try your hand at writing, editing or even speaking publicly. You’re likely to attract people who want to get to know you better and share experiences, which will enrich your life in return.

GEMINI (MAY 21 – JUNE 20)

april friendship horoscope zodiacs2

July’s focus is on second house matters, including your daily routines, values, job and work ethics, which makes sense because you’re looking to find more of a work/life balance. You’re also reassessing all that is of value to you. Vinas play a significant role in July, so be sure to share your thoughts with them and ask for their perspective—it might bring some new inspiration. Throughout July and August, Mars is in your ninth house, highlighting expansion of some kind (be this literal or metaphoric). You may also be traveling for work or pleasure. Look out for vinas who share your passions and interests. For most of the summer, Venus is in your fourth house of home and family. It’s time for a retreat and some pampering. How about a local yoga retreat or a spa visit with your vina? Or if money’s tight, a quiet night with your vina: vino, pizza and girl talk.

WHAT COLOR YOU SHOULD PAINT YOUR NAILS BASED ON YOUR ZODIAC SIGN

/ Victoria / 1 Comment

Hey, astro-savvy vinas! Have you ever wondered what color nail polish you should be wearing according to your sign? I did my homework, so you don’t have to do yours! Get your stars aligned and start painting those claws!

ARIES (March 21 – April 19)

Go for the bright red polish that’s screaming your name. You need something to match that fiery, fast-thinking personality of yours! You’re confident and dynamic, so your nail polish choice should reflect that. It will make the statement that you’ve always been itching to make!

TAURUS (April 20 – May 20)

It’s all about an earth-toned nude for you, Taurus. You love stability and routine, and a beautiful nude hue is the calm to your soul that you’re craving. Nude never goes out of style — it’s withstood the test of time. You can relate to that!

GEMINI (May 21 – June 20)

Mint or robin’s egg blue is your hue! This color will help you feel more, and think less. It encompasses your twin mentality with its shifts between blue and green. The color is eloquent and charming, just like a Gemini. 🙂

CANCER (June 21 – July 22)

Peach or coral! Cancers are celebrated as being the most loving and protective signs in the zodiac. These water signs are innately intuitive and never miss an opportunity to nurture their loved ones. Peach or coral nails will help you radiate that warmth in your life!

LEO (July 23 – August 22)

Lionhearted one, you should be wearing bright yellow polish to match your bright, shining spirit! Yellow is strong and stylish, confident and a little cocky — just like you. It will certainly draw attention and get people talking!

VIRGO (August 23 – September 22)

Opt for a blush-colored polish, dear Virgo. You’re the most practical of the Zodiac, so it makes sense that this hue speaks to your soul. A blush colored mani goes with anything — talk about easy outfit planning!

nail polishLIBRA (September 23 – October 22)

Navy blue is you! Libras are all about balance, and a dark blue mani will be a great way to rock the super trendy vampy colors without going overboard. Libra won’t feel guilty or ashamed when rocking this shade, and you’ll be a trendsetter in your squad!

SCORPIO (October 23 – November 21)

And what mani color would suit you, mysterious and sexy Scorpio vinas? How about a deep plum? The color might look almost black, representing your mysterious and secretive side. The plum is good to bring in some of the warmth you’re capable of showing. Best on sharpened talons. 😉

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 – December 21)

Emerald green will look great on your nails, Sagittarian vinas! You’re typically bold,  flashy and adventurous. Emerald will help ground you, while also keeping those boho vibes you’re famous for alive.

CAPRICORN (December 22 – January 19)

Vinas born under this sign can benefit from a sparkly gold mani. While Capricorns are usually practical, business-minded, and calculating, a gold mani might help them loosen up a bit and relax. Plus, you’re likely born close to the new year, and that’s when all things gold and sparkly rule our planet. Go for it, Cap!

Aquarius (January 20 – February 18)

A bright raspberry or wisteria polish would be fantastic for you, Aquarian vinas. You’re known for being eclectic and eccentric, inventive and intelligent. A bright and bold shade only highlights what you’ve got going on and is as interesting and unique as you are.

Pisces (February 19 – March 20)

Amethyst nails would suit your soothing, reflective, and emotional natures, Pisces vinas. You’re kind and sympathetic, and amethyst really helps push out those soothing vibes you’ve got going on. Try a geode or marbled mani to really help ground you!

WHICH ZODIAC SIGN WOULD MAKE THE BEST FRIEND FOR YOU?

/ amberrenee / Leave a comment

Looking to understand your vina a little more? A creative way to do so might be to look into her zodiac sign! Though every vina is unique, a few similarities can be found within those who share a birth sign. Read on to see who you and your birth sign are compatible with!

AQUARIUS (JANUARY 20 – FEBRUARY 18)

Aquarian vinas are very reserved. They’re low-maintenance and don’t require a lot of attention in order to be satisfied with a friendship. If an Aquarian goes uninspired for too long, they can appear lazy. Because Aquarians are so carefree, they’ll likely enjoy the company of a grounded vina.

PISCES (FEBRUARY 19 – MARCH 20)

Pisces are typically wise people, but their overly giving and charitable nature can also lead to others taking advantage of them. They prefer a vina that will help them break out of their shell from time to time, and one who will not take advantage of their kindness.

ARIES (MARCH 21 – APRIL 19)

Aries have a natural knack for creativity and spontaneity. However, because Aries are so exuberant, it’s important for them to find a vina who has no problem keeping their fervor in check. Whenever an Aries is acting on impulse or beginning to overreact, their vina can help bring them back down to earth.

TAURUS (APRIL 20 – MAY 20)

Taureans are known for their stubborn ways– but this stubbornness also makes them some of the most persistent and steadfast workers around! Taureans need a calm vina who won’t butt heads with their strong and occasionally irrational opinions.

GEMINI (MAY 21 – JUNE 20)

Geminis are a creative and compassionate people who can get rather moody — which is due, in part, to the “dual” nature of their personality. Don’t fret; Geminis are also great at letting things roll off their backs. In order to be vinas with a Gemini, be prepared to back off and give them space when needed.

CANCER (JUNE 21 – JULY 22)

Cancerians are a bit reclusive. They are total homebodies. You would be safe to assume that they don’t crave the spotlight and are typically satisfied with the simpler things in life, like family and a few good friends. Alone time is extremely important to Cancerians, so they typically feel happiest when with other introverted vinas.

LEO (JULY 23 – AUGUST 22)

The lion, or Leo, is one of the most dominant signs in the entire zodiac. Leos are usually the alphas of their group. They are strong-minded but usually very charismatic when voicing their opinions. Leos are best paired with a selfless and giving vina who won’t compete for the spotlight.

VIRGO (AUGUST 23 – SEPTEMBER 22)

Virgos are highlighted by their charm and high ability as charismatic conversationalists. These vinas strongly object to the mistreatment of others, namely their friends. Because of their knack for whimsical conversations, they’d surely enjoy the company of a creative-thinking vina.

LIBRA (SEPTEMBER 23 – OCTOBER 22)

Libras are all about what’s fair and equal. They are also known for their appreciation for decadence, beauty and sophisticated taste. Due to the Libras’ inherent recognition for beauty, it’s only natural that they would prefer a vina with a taste for the finer things in life.

SCORPIO (OCTOBER 23 – NOVEMBER 21)

Scorpios are one of the most mysterious signs in the zodiac. They are typically very bold in their sense of style but they tend to carry out a very secretive lifestyle. Don’t overlook the Scorpio, for when provoked, they pack a venomous bite. They mix best with a reserved and unobtrusive vina, who can serve as the yin to their yang.

SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER 22 – DECEMBER 21)

Sagittarius vinas are known for their intensity and focus. These vinas are often very goal-driven and usually don’t have time for dishonesty and opulence. They get along best with no-nonsense vinas.

CAPRICORN (DECEMBER 22 – JANUARY 19)

Capricorns are known for their intellect. They’re systematic, perfectionistic, organized planners who are driven toward maintaining structure. Capricorns don’t take criticism lightly but are compassionate, selfless friends who are willing to help their best vina tackle their problems. They prefer an intense and bold companion.

And there you have it! Your basic guidelines for finding a vina compatible with you and all of your birth sign’s quirks.

YOUR IDEAL SUMMER TRAVEL DESTINATION BASED ON YOUR ZODIAC SIGN

/ kellysuerichardson / 2 Comments

Where to spend your week or two off this summer can be a nerve-wracking challenge.  You want to pick the right spot, but it’s hard to decide where to go, what to do, and ensure you are going to like it. So this summer, I’ve rounded up some of the best places for you to go, based on your zodiac sign! Because duh, we should make all our life decisions based on that, right? …Right?

Caldeira-Velha-Azores-002.jpg

Take us to the Azores Islands pls n thank u (📸: Away We Went)

FIRE SIGNS:  ARIES, LEO, SAGITTARIUS

Aries: Get your adventure fix and lead by example in Portugal’s Azores Islands this summer.  Aries is the type of person that is destined to visit this unspoiled gem in the heart of the ocean with two UNESCO World Heritage Sites among the nine islands.  An abundance of off-the-map adventures for the fitness-and-thrill seeking explorers, from whale watching to dolphin swimming.

Leo: The most infamous zodiac sign should head to Negril, and enjoy Hedonism II for a few days.  This destination allows them to be their bold selves, capture the spotlight, and dance the night away.

Sagittarius: For the “easy-going” fire sign, a trip to Bucks County, Pennsylvania is the perfect place to get away and relax.  Explore the Delaware River waterfront and shopping in antique shops, before heading to the Peace Valley Lavender farm. Can you say, ahhhh?

EARTH: TAURUS, VIRGO, CAPRICORN

Taurus: A drool-worthy setting fit for the self-indulgent Taurus,  Casa de Uco is situated across a 790-acre estate and vineyard in Argentina’s Uco Valley.

AIR:  GEMINI, AQUARIUS, LIBRA

Gemini:  Head across the pond, to London.  From there stay at The Distillery, which has two sides to appeal to the “twins”.  Create your own Portobello Road Gin, and get as crazy, or stay as tame, as either of your sides need to be.

Aquarius: Take a walk on the wild side with a visit to Cuba! This air sign tends to be fiercely independent, so navigating the island without wi-fi and relying on the native hospitality will give you some thrills.  For ideas in planning the perfect Cuba vacation visit Cuba Travel.

Libra:  Libra’s love beauty and balance, so venturing out a bit and heading to NYC to visit W Hotel’s new “Tattoo Suite” and take part in TLC Miami Ink’s inaugural tattoo series is a must do for this reserved sign.

WATER:  CANCER, SCORPIO, PISCES

Cancer: It’s no secret that Crabs love the beach, and in Nantucket, you can crab-walk to the newest boutique hotel, the Graydon House, enjoying an amazing dinner by a Michelin starred chef.

Scorpio: This sign tends to enjoy a balance of active adventure and relaxing bliss.  Spend some time at Collective Retreats either on a remote ranch in Vail, Colorado or along the serene Moonlight Basin in Yellowstone, Montana where you can enjoy heated tents, fully functional bathrooms and 1,500 thread count sheets with the option of an in-tent massage.

Pisces: This sign is drawn to water and nature, so seeking out a beautiful destination that is remote, like Secret Bay, is essential. It’s an eco-luxury boutique hotel in Dominica, a remote Caribbean Island, and would be the perfect destination.  Endless activities await the nature lover who will be able to hike some of the world’s best trails.
