As celebrity bombshells upend traditional notions of marriage, married theologians Revs. Alisha Lola Jones and Calvin Taylor Skinner challenge us to embrace complexity. "Notes on faith" is theGrio's inspirational ,  interdenominational series featuring Black thought leaders across faiths. To be completely honest, marriage has never been one-size-fits-all for anyone. As spiritual advisors, we are often presented with the intricate task of counseling individuals and are bound by confidentiality not to disclose the specifics of their negotiations. These negotiations are not new. What is new is the public's comfortability with learning the various scenarios of non-conformity in life partnership.

Do you ever look at couples and wonder how they could be such a perfect match? They have impeccable energy, great communication skills, and they even look amazing together. Some believe in soulmates and others will say they have the foundation for a healthy relationship, but a select few look to the stars.

"We all have every zodiac, and every planet, alive within us shaping the magic of who we are and how we relate to others. Our sun, moon, and Venus signs are a beautiful p...

Low-key ceremonies and destination weddings have become increasingly popular since 2020—DIY weddings, micro-weddings, and elopements included. And since destination weddings are more manageable when they're on the intimate side, Airbnb wedding venues can make for a great place to tie the knot. It's not shocking that smaller big days are here to stay. Small-scale weddings are more affordable and allow couples to celebrate with a select set of their closest people, and while there are plenty of large hotels, resorts, and more traditional venues to choose from, a handful of intimate Airbnb properties are also bookable, often for a much lower cost—making a wedding more financially accessible than you might have thought. Getting hitched at an Airbnb is like getting married at your own house, but better. As a platform, Airbnb's primary purpose is booking stays rather than events—so it's 100 percent necessary to communicate your plans for a ceremony with the host before bookin...

If you're similarly pragmatic, patient, and love luxury, you'll likely click with a Taurus. Below, Taurus' compatibility with all 12 zodiac signs. Taurus and Aries Compatibility — Problematic Pair Cardinal fire sign Aries is semi-sextile, or one sign apart, from Taurus, which makes for a little uneasiness.
