entertainment.

know me to truly understand me!
My love for writing started when I
was nine. I started with short stories.
In my early teens I moved on to poems
and journaling.
My obsession with Astrology started
around this time . I have been re-
searching Astrology for over 15 years. Per-
sonality traits and behavior with each indi-
vidual Astrological sign is my area of
expertise.
I have a special love for writing and
find it to be the most natural and
soothing thing.
But I am more passionate about
helping people. My goal and drive in
life is to be Therapist. I wanted to be
a Doctor of the body, now I want to
be a Doctor for the mind. While I’m
on the road to that I thought I would take a
stroll into the world of writing again.

all, I only learned to read so that I

tion of my childhood was spent playing role-
playing games (RPGs), experiencing the tales
of heroes and their friends through
the 8 and 16-bit graphics of my

Marja & Melanie have decided to take their love for

writing and their perception of the world and views on life to a
different level. They want to share them with others. They make

look like they come from two different worlds.
But little do people know that not judging them
by their covers they almost read like the same
story from the inside. They are both drawn to
the dark & ominous parts of this world when it
comes to novels and entertainment. They both
grew up having a strange love for video games
and a weird obsession with Mario Bros. Marja
and Melanie are both mental sponges when it
comes to learning and expanding their
knowledge.. Of course certain interest vary
between them both, but when it boils down the
core, they both find that their nerdiness and
their weird and
different views on life
are almost identical.
Now they have banded
together to share with
others a piece of their
minds and piece of
their secret imaginative world. Marja is the
sensitive and emotional Crab who has a lot of
beautiful and special things deep in her shell ..

detached and unemotional Water Bearer who is
sociable and caring but yet reserved and naturally
cold in nature. She has a special interest in humans
and their well being but doesn’t care to be weighed
down with emotions and feels of her own. The water

grasp on to what it finds important and pulls what is
valuable and important into its shell which can easily
be called it’s hidden world of collectables and secrets.
Together these two know how to bring a lot of
variety in their writing, even in their styles and
artistic views. They both are okay with being the

Parenting a sexually active Teen

I have a son who recently turned 14 years old. He, like many teenagers,
is already sexually active. It apparently started when he was only 13.
Although I have explained to him the various and many benefits of celibacy
during the teen years, he
insists that through the use
of condoms, that he is
immune to any
consequences. After telling
him that condoms are not
always 100% safe he simply
retorts that since he is
practicing safe sex it is okay
for him to be sexually
active. He, and his girlfriend,
simply refuses to believe that
they can get pregnant and
won’t even consider how it
would impact their lives.

The first serious or

sexual relationship that a
young person has can
really set the pace for what
they later experience, and
to a degree, expect from a
partner. I am extremely
worried as his current
girlfriend is extremely
controlling. She keeps him
from having other female
friends; going so far as
threatening current
friends. She has even been
known to take his cell phone away during school hours. I understand that
with constant exposure to sex and violence that the paradigm for
relationships has been irrevocably changed for the current young
generation. They are desensitized to sex everywhere they turn.

Story Teller’s Creed

By: Unknown

I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge;

That myth is more potent than history,
That dreams are more powerful than facts,
That hope always triumphs over experience,
That laughter is the only cure for grief,
And I believe that love is stronger than death.

Loving a Prisoner
By: Melanie Renae

Although you’re here but so far away,

Loving a prisoner is so hard they say.
Her love for you grows with each passing day.
Loving her is the price you have to pay.
Loving a prisoner isn’t so much fun,
It’s loving her with no one to hold,
But it’s worth the wait when the time is done.
It’s being young and feeling old.

Remember she’s lonely and sad from being

It’s letting her whisper her love to you.

You whispering back, you love her too.
And she’s thinking of you with each passing

day.
Knowing the parole board now holds her fate.
So love her, miss her, and please tell her so –
Because if you really love her,
It’s extremely painful letting her go,
She desperately needs to know.
While dying inside from needing her so.
Watching her leave with eyes full of tears –
Standing alone with her hopes, dreams, and
fears.

By: Marja

In today’s market, there is certainly nothing better than a free computer

game. I speak not of those lame facebook flash distractions, but actual
computer games. For free.

PC Gamer’s Free-to-Play Game of the Year went to League of Legends.

While I will not be able to describe the in -game experience more than just
generally, I will explain the basic limitations of free play and hope that you
decide to check it out for yourself.

A free account allows you unlimited access to online play, and playing
accrues points that you can use to unlock champions. This will be important,
because if you do not pay for an account you only have access to random free
weekly heroes. If you decide to purchase the game for $30, it unlocks twenty
heroes and gives you some Riot Points (RP) that can be spend on unlocking
skins for heroes. Oh yes, you if want to be extra pretty in -game, there be only
a price, my dear! At least you are not required to pay to play...it is just
tempting.

Thank you for taking the time to read The Age of Aquarius
This issue is dedicated to Buffy Lindsay for giving me the spark of a crea-
tive and awesome idea – this newsletter! Buffy’s ideas became the inspira-
tion for a newsletter which is not an ordinary one; a newsletter with bite,
a unique touch, and an ominous appeal. My love for writing and my pas-
sion to be a therapist could use some extra mental juices to keep it hot and
flowing. I think outside the box,, writing outside of it should be entertain-
ing! Thank Buffy: I owe this edition to you! And a special thanks to
Marja, the chief editor and my intelligence behind the muse!
