WHAT-TO-DO - FREEPORT/LUCAYA & GRAND BAHAMA - JULY 2004
Astrologers base their ideas on the position of the planets and the sun at a person's time of birth, but it is not an exact science. Even an avid astrology buff will admit that the stars "impel, not compel."
For this reason, many use astrology as an amusement rather than as a serious outline of their character traits. With this in mind, let What-to-do help you decide what scent to wear based on your astrological sign.
