You might not immediately picture the ideal match between the outgoing, passionate Libra and the reserved, rational Capricorn. Starting a relationship for this pair could be equally challenging. However, even if they are opposites, Libra and Capricorn compatibility in a relationship also has the possibility of creating a respectable combination but they will need to put in a lot of work for it to accomplish. In terms of their innate characteristics too, the two zodiac signs seem highly opposite to each other. But they can make their drowning relationship sail if they can identify their shared interests and establish a negotiating position they can use thereafter. Being an Air sign, Libra is characterized by intelligence, communication, and social connections. As an Earth sign, Capricorn is noted for its realism, discipline, and stability. These two elements have very different approaches to life. It's easy for Libras to form a bond with others. They feel it quite fascinating to...

The McKenzie family of Waynesboro turned to Ephesians 5:14 when looking for inspiration about what to name their new coffee business. "Awake, O sleeper, and arise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you." "You grind your coffee in the morning, and it helps you grind out your day and Christ's light is always there," offered Andre McKenzie, whose wife, Rebecca, owns Arise & Grind Coffee. The McKenzies also are steadfast in their belief that veterans in this country need to be taken care of and 10 percent of the profits from the business are donated to Mighty Oaks. "It's an organization that provides free peer-to-peer resiliency and recovery programs for our nation's 'warriors' dealing with challenges related to the struggles of daily military life, combat deployments and the symptoms of post-traumatic stress (PTS). "They have intensive programs and biblically focused marriage counseling for the ...

A bride and groom's humorous choice of sign outside their wedding has sparked delight and outrage online, with some enjoying the joke and others failing to see the funny side. In a video shared by celebrant Bex McMonagle, who performs wedding ceremonies, a sign can be seen inviting guests into the wedding of U.K. couple Rebecca and Jack—but there's a twist. Evidently eager to inject a little humor and personality into proceedings, the sign instead welcomes friends and family to "Becca's wedding, featuring Jack." The words "Becca's wedding" appear in large, cursive writing, while "featuring Jack" is printed just below in small, plain text. The wedding sign that has divided the internet. While many see it as a charming, tongue-in-cheek joke, others are not not at all amused. bexthecelebrant.com/bexthecelebrantuk For time untold, weddings have been seen as occasions that should be steeped in tradition, but that has changed as couples inc...

Your weekly Chinese zodiac sign horoscope for August 21 - 27, 2023, is here! First, let's look at the week's message for everyone. Patience isn't always synonymous with inaction. Sometimes, even when one is patient, one must make decisions to stay on the right track so the fruits of one's patience are not snatched from right in front of one's eyes. If you are juggling too many things simultaneously, now's the time to know your priorities and arrange your commitments in order. After all, you cannot treat the first thing on the list and the last with the same degree of importance. The i-ching hexagram of the week is a mountain over heaven (#26). It takes courage to stand by one's principles and honor those who came before just as you pave the way for those that come after. Be careful of who you let into your hen house. Not every acquaintance leads to fortune and good favor. Some are good at insinuating they can do much for you when they stand to benefit more f...

Aries people — those born between March 21 and April 19 — are more likely to be leaders and strong personalities in the world, so they're a good match for a zodiac sign that's typically a little more laid back. That's why Aries, a fire sign, is known to match with other fire signs or the air signs, Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius. One fire sign, in particular, that our awesome Aries is a great love match with is Sagittarius. Sagittarians tend to love adventure and are fun and outgoing, which is perfect for that Aries personality. These zodiacs have been known to share mutual values, positive outlooks, and a whole lot of passion. Just remember, two fire signs can make for some fiery arguments, but some equally hot making-up. "They're the type of people who could keep the spark alive for a long time. They're always kind of building each other up and expanding their horizons together," astrologer Alexandria Lettman explained of this love match to Well + Good....

What turns you on? Although the idea of compatibility is subjective, astrology can help you navigate the driving forces behind your desires and motivations. If you've ever wondered who you're most compatible with between the sheets, you've come to the right place. Here's the zodiac sign you're most sexually compatible with, according to astrology: Aries: Your Best Match Is Leo Bold and unapologetically passionate, an Aries + Leo combination is just as spicy as it is playful. You find Leo's authenticity wildly attractive, but your sexual connection goes far beyond Leo's charisma and dramatiques. Leo's courage and pride actually turns you on a great deal, as it tends to provoke your naturally competitive spirit. There's nothing you love more than a challenge, including in the bedroom. In addition to being a fellow fire sign, Leo responds to your innate carnality and physical stamina, especially when it comes to the sexual endurance you seek in a lover....

In a world where grandiose celebrations and extravagant displays of love take centre stage, there lies a hidden gem of nuptial bliss – the intimate wedding. It's a hushed haven where love flourishes, untouched by the cacophony of the masses. Here, in the embrace of a tight-knit circle of the nearest and dearest, a couple finds solace, bonding deeply with one another and their chosen few. It's the romantic rendezvous where each moment is savoured, every exchange cherished. In a world where bigger often means better, an intimate wedding is a beautiful reminder that sometimes, less is truly more. The Karanis -- David, 30, and Naomi, 29 -- celebrated their love by tying the knot in August 2019 in an intimate ceremony with fewer than 50 attendees. While many dream of grand weddings from their childhood days, Naomi always stood apart. For her, a large-scale celebration was never part of her vision. "It does not make sense havin...
