Going back to the days of Aleister Crowley and others who submerged themselves into the occult, the individual Major Arcana cards have been assigned to specific planets.

As a student of astrology and the Tarot, I do not always subscribe to the traditional correspondences. For example, to me, the energy of Uranus is a much better fit to The Tower than Mars.

The argument for making Mars The Tower’s ‘ruler’ is that The Tower’s edifice, described as some as the Tower of Babel, represents man’s hubris and a structure of lies.

The Tower image shows lightning striking the crown on the top of the tower edifice, the crown being false materialism and the lightening bolt, the flash of truth striking down the edifice and violently displacing the crown.

Mars represents ego well. Mars is dignified in Capricorn where its ambition is transformed into concrete structure. And the flames emanating from the tumbling structure is consistent with the symbolism of Mars and its sign, Aries.

Lastly, Wald Amberstone, co-founder of The Tarot School, likens the card’s image as a representation of a phallic symbol at the time of climax.

Certainly this is Mars.

But the lightning, the sudden flash of awareness, the crack as the structure tumbles, are hallmarks of Uranus.

Arthur Edward Waite in The Pictorial Key to the Tarot describes the preceding card, The Devil, as “the fall into the material and animal state, while the other (The Tower) signifies destruction on the other side.”

Uranus’ energy is depersonalized. It is completely a product of the intellect and the lightning bolt is its hallmark.

The sudden bolt of lightning describes the operation of Uranus as anyone who has experienced a transit of Uranus can testify.

Uranus is the first planet discovered that is too far away to be seen by the unaided human eye. For centuries, astronomers assumed that no planet extended beyond Saturn, hence that planet’s association with limits and boundaries.

Then in 1781, astronomer William Herschel discovered Uranus with the result that the prevailing world-view of the Universe was upended much in the same way that Uranus transits result in upset and breakthrough on a societal and personal level.

Uranian energy is a bolt out of the blue, coming from somewhere outside of our individual selves like the bolt of lightning from above that upends The Tower and its crown.

In my view, Mars is a good descriptor of the actual Tower in the card, but Uranus better describes the querent’s reality when the card is drawn in an actual reading.

You’ve seen the acronym RSS everywhere. Most blogs ask you to subscribe to their RSS feeds but what is it?

It commonly stands for Really Simple Syndication and it’s another way to publish articles and updates from web sites, particularly blogs and news sites, audio and video sites, that update frequently. An RSS feed can be displayed as either a full text or a summary.

Websites can benefit enormously by utilising RSS feeds on their sites, because a web author can then syndicate their content completely automatically, using a service such as Feedburner, or software which creates the feeds automatically whenever anything on your website is updated.

Users sign up to receive your feed and receive an update any time anything changes on your site. If you publish a new post on your blog, for example, the subscriber will receive a summary message advising them of the title of your post and when it was added to your site. From the summary, they can then click on the link to go read the full article. Subscribers use a ‘feed reader’ or ‘aggregator’ to read the updates.

Feeds benefit publishers by letting them syndicate content automatically. A standardized XML file format creates the information a single time, but allows it to be viewed by many different programs. A feed reader, or aggegator may be web based such as in Goggle’s suite of tools, a desktop download or available for a mobile device.

The benefit to the subscriber is that summaries are sent to their reader automatically, without them having to go to each website of interest to see if there are updates.

Benefits For Subscribers:

As a subscriber, you are kept up to date about items of interest without having to go to each website. You can get feeds on anything from news headlines and weather, to your favourite music releases and favourite blogs. You can discover the latest details almost as they happen and it saves you a lot of time. As a subscriber, you stay in control of what you receive and when and from whom. This leads to a cleaner inbox as RSS feeds don’t send to your email address.

Possibly one of the best advantages in using RSS feeds instead of subscribing to a website by email is that you don’t use your email address. This means you won’t be spammed. The feeds may contain advertising, but they do not spam your inbox. We all know some sites don’t honour requests to unsubscribe from emails or ask you to explain why you’re leaving, but RSS lets you unsubscribe easily by simply deleting the feed from your reader.

Benefits for Publishers:

For website owners, RSS feeds are great marketing tools.

When someone subscribes to your website via RSS they are interested in what is happening on your site. They want to know when you’ve updated your content when it happens. They can receive the latest news on your products and services without the hassle of your email ending up in their spam box.

If you’re using Feedburner or similar to publish your feeds, you can get details on how many subscribers you have. Other services do not provide that information. You don’t get to see who is reading your feeds and who ignores them or who unsubscribes and why. Finding out why people leave mailing lists is often a critical piece of information that can help improve a website design or content.

Despite RSS feeds being around for years now, many people still don’t know anything about them and don’t use them.

Using RSS

Subscribers:

If you want to start using an RSS aggregator to receive feeds, then perhaps the simplest one is in Google + when you sign up for a free account. It’s quite user friendly and easy to read. It’s available by clicking the “more” tab when you’re signed in.

When you’re on a website you like, look for subscription options and you’ll usually find an RSS feed button. There is an RSS feed code you can enter into your reader, or the site may offer Google as an automatic option. That’s it. The feed from the site will now start coming into your reader in real time.

Publishers:

When RSS was created, the idea of Internet marketing was not considered. However, as people subscribe to your RSS feed, they are indicating an interest in your content. Of course, savvy marketers can see the benefit of sending marketing messages to those who have a specific interest in their topic.

RSS is still under used but a very powerful way for both subscribers to keep updated on many sites easily and for web sites to provide real time content update to interested readers. If you’re not using RSS as a subscriber or a site owner, now is the time to begin.

Monetizing your website can make you a monthly income. There are a number of methods available that can help you do this. Two of the most successful methods involve affiliate market and email marketing.

These methods of marketing can often supply you with the tools and information, often for free. This is because these companies will offer you the insight to succeed because they want you to profit from your association with them. Your monetary success will help them to profit.

Affiliate marketing involve making a commission when you sell a product or information for the company you are associated with. It of just means giving them your email address, setting up an user name, password and giving them an address where they can send you a check for commissions you have earned.

The website you own must keep the viewer engaged with regards to the production or information package you trying to sell. Gaining targeted traffic will help in making sales with your affiliate marketing campaign. This is because the person is already interested in the product you are selling. They have used keywords in a search that are targeted to a product that they want to appear on the first page of their search.

Another approach to making money on-line is building an email list and promoting products or information by sending emails from this list to potential customers. This type of promotion is best achieved by getting potential customers to opt-in to accepting your email. These customers want to receive the information that you are sending them. They agree to subscribe to your emails being sent to their inbox. When they subscribe to receiving your emails they no longer consider your emails as spam. Once they agree to receiving your emails through the subscription process you will need to use an auto responder to continue sending related emails to increase your chances of making a sale.

There are many auto responder programs available. Some of these companies will let you use their auto responder program for free, on a trial basis. Usually they will allow you to use their software for up to one month, for free. Many of these companies will offer you free training to help build your email list. However you will eventually have to pay them on a monthly basis to continue using their product,

Making a monthly income with the internet is possible. However this will take some time and patience. With a well designed website and the right type of traffic, this will go a long way in reaching your financial goals.

Lauren Rosenstadt was a single mom working at a herb company in Bethesda, Maryland. A herb (pronounced “erb”) is a plant that has medicinal, savory, or aromic qualities. One day while at lunch with a friend whose daughter suffered from insomnia, Lauren thought, “If I could fill a pillow with herbs, that would be soothing and help my friend’s daughter sleep.”

A few days later, Sydney Greensheep, a pillow shaped like a sheep and filled with dried herbs, was completed. Lauren gave Sydney to her friend to try with her daughter. The next morning her friend reported, “It’s unbelievable, she slept like a baby!”

Insomnia is epidemic in our fast-passed American lifestyle. 40-50% of Americans complain of occasional bouts with insomnia. 10-15 percent of the US population suffers from chronic insomnia. Every year, as many as 10 million Americans seek a physician’s help for sleep disorders. As many as 10,000 automobile accident deaths each year are the result of someone falling asleep at the wheel.

Lauren showed Sydney to her boss, who was impressed enough to provide her with space in the company’s booth at a trade show. Many trade show visitors liked the herb stuffed pillow idea, and by the end of the show, Lauren had orders for over 100 pillows.

Lauren hired a seamstress to sew the sheep-shaped pillows. Then, she stuffed them herself. The trade show buyers put the pillows on display in their shops, and within days they all sold for between $18.00 and $22.00 each.

Encouraged by these results, Lauren sent samples to department stores and specialty shops. Orders started rolling in. To sew the pillows, she enlisted small home business sewers. It was hard work to deliver bolts of fabric and 40 pound bags of filling to their homes. Within the first year, she grossed over half a million dollars.

Now, Lauren’s Herbal Animals can be found in over 750 body care, gift and natural living shops worldwide. Lauren’s company employs 13 people and has revenue of over a million dollars a year.

It’s interesting to note that Lauren Rosenstadt didn’t start out as a hobby seamstress or craft person. She was a person who used her insight to help a friend confort her daughter. After recognizing an opportunity, Lauren didn’t let up. She did the thinking and the work necessary to achieve success.

A little guide if you are confused by the email marketing terms that you encounter throughout the different websites, I hope it helps.

Auto-Responder (AR)

is an email service that sends out pre-written emails to anyone who fills out an opt-in form.

Opt-in (Subscribe) (OI)

is what a subscriber does when she wants your information. She/he then fills out an opt-in form on your web page. When they fill this out and click on “Subscribe” or whatever you choose to call your button they have given you permission for you to communicate with them via email or phone, whichever one is asked for.

Double opt-in (DOI)

is the recommended setting for anyone who is gathering leads through an Autoresponder. When your website visitor fills out an opt-in form they will receive an email prompting them to acknowledge that they want to actually opt-in to receive your message and that they want to receive further messages from you. When you choose double opt-in your emails will have a higher deliverability rate then if you choose not to have double opt-in.

Above-The-Fold (ATF)

this is anything you see on the top of the computer screen (here email) where you do not have to use the scroller to see the rest. This is prime real-estate for email so make sure if you write long emails that you draw their attention before they have to scroll or you may lose their interest before they reach your call to action.

Deliverability Rate (DR)

measures how many emails have been sent and how many ended up in an INBOX

Hard bounce (HB)

is when an email permanently fails to reach an email inbox due to someone typing the email wrong or someone providing a fake email address when filling out a form.

Soft bounce, (SB)

on the other hand, is due to a technical issue as for example a full email inbox or an unavailable server.

A subject line (SL)

is what will entice your subscriber to open op your email. Choose catchy subjects to get your subscriber to open your emails.

Open rate % (OR)

is the number of emails sent in an email marketing campaign divided by the total number of emails opened.

Click-through rate (CTR)

is the number of unique clicks on a link in your email, divided by the number of people that opened the email.

Conversion rate (CR)

this is the measure of success you’ve had with your email campaign. If you link to a sales page for an affiliate offer you calculate how many the email was sent to and how many sales you made from that email.

HTML-email

is an email that is formatted like a webpage and allows images, background colors, unique fonts etc.

HTML-emails can have a high click-through rate if used right.

Plain text email

because not all browsers allow HTML emails so then you have to write what is called plain text which doesn’t allow images or text formatting.

Email Signature (ES)

the best practice is to add your signature at the end of every email. In a signature, you can add your social media accounts, link to your company, services, product or website. This is a great marketing opportunity that is often overlooked.

Spam or Junk

is when you haven’t given permission to receive the email, they often do not include an unsubscribe link either so it’s really hard to stop the emails. However, now email providers can send permission-based emails to your spam/junk folder as well because they contain words that your email provider considers as spam. So if you have opted into something but can’t find it in your inbox I would advise checking your spam/junk folder.

Unsubscribe (opt-out)

if you choose to not receive an email anymore and want to stop communication from the sender there should always be an unsubscribe link/button at the bottom of each email. Sometimes it can be hard to find but it’s there!

I hope this clears up any misunderstanding you might have had.

The most successful internet marketers know the extreme importance of building email lists. In fact, one of the keys to growing a successful online business is to build an email list of potential customers in your target market.

There are numerous ways you can build your email list, including:

Identify your target market. Who wants or needs your product or service? Identifying your target market is your first step in building your email list.

Quality over quantity. You can have a list of thousands of subscribers, but if those subscribers aren’t interested in your niche, you’re simply wasting your time. Make sure you target those people who are interested in purchasing your product or service.

Use an autoresponder. It is absolutely essential that your list members verify that they actually signed up for your list. The easiest way to verify opt-ins is to make use of an autoresponder, like Aweber. Each time someone subscribes to your list, the autoresponder will automatically send an email to the subscriber asking him to confirm that he indeed wants to be on the list.

Don’t spam. The last thing you want is a reputation as a spammer, so do not send unsolicited emails to those people who have not given you permission to do so. In addition to spam being illegal in the United States, most people aren’t very receptive to receiving unwanted emails.

Design a squeeze page. A squeeze page is simply a Web page that is designed to capture the names and email addresses of those who want to subscribe to your list. Some internet marketing experts recommend designing a squeeze page that has several pages. Each of those pages should contain useful information for your target market.

Make your opt-in box highly visible. Visitors to your squeeze page must be able to easily see your opt-in box, so ensure that it’s in a highly visible spot, such as the upper portion of your homepage.

Offer subscribers something for free. One of the best ways to encourage people to subscribe to your list [http://www.rockettheprofit.com/email_marketing2.htm] is to offer them something – such as an ebook or a report – for free.

Find different ways to drive traffic to your squeeze page. You must try different ways of driving traffic to your squeeze page, so prospective customers will sign up for your list. Include links to your squeeze page in your email signature, in your signature at any forums you frequent, and on your blog. You may also want to use Google AdWords and article marketing as ways to drive traffic to your squeeze page.

Treat your list well. People sign up for your list because they’re interested in the information you have to offer, so treat them well by consistently providing them with valuable content. Additionally, avoid sending too many sales pitches, or you’ll likely alienate some of your subscribers and cause them to unsubscribe.

Offer valuable content. If you send regular mailings to your list, ensure that they are filled with information that your subscribers want. To convert your list members into paying customers, always offer them something of value while limiting your sales pitches to only products from which you think they can benefit.

Do you have a YouTube channel? If so, you may be looking for ways to get tons of views. According to statistics, YouTube videos get more than 1.5 billion views per day. On average, one viewer spend more than one hour on this platform. If your view counts are too low, we suggest that you follow this simple guide to grow your channel. Read on to know more.

1. Spur on your Existing Viewers to Subscribe

Your existing viewers are an ideal source of video views for your next videos. So, you should encourage them to subscribe to your channel. Once they subscribe, you will see a gradual increase in your view counts.

All you need to do is request them to hit the subscribe button on your channel. Adding a call to action to your videos is also a great idea. You may also want to place a subscription link in your video descriptions for search engine ranking.

2. Ask your Viewers about what they want to see

If you make videos that don’t appeal to your viewers, you will barely get any views. So, what you should do is ask your viewers about what they want to see. As a matter of fact, uploading content that your audience loves is a great way of building viewership and keeping the attention of your audience.

3. Use Playlists for Better Watch Time

According to the statistics released by YouTube, top channels on the platform have a lot of playlists. Actually, these brands know the importance of auto-play. When the content is great, people will just continue to watch videos as they auto play.

4. Use Cards and End Screens

With end screens and cards, you can direct your viewers to your other great content. Actually, cards work like pop-ups that show up during the playback. On the other hand, end-screens show up once your video ends.

5. Create SEO Titles and Descriptions

If people don’t find your videos, they won’t be able to watch them. In other words, you need to follow best SEO strategies in order to make your content search engine friendly. So, what you need to do is add potential keywords when creating titles and descriptions. Make sure that the keywords are relevant to your videos.

You can use Google AdWords Keyword Planner and Google Trends in order to make a list of useful keywords for your video descriptions.

6. Use Compelling Thumbnails

Most people scan content rather than read. Similarly, on YouTube, they scan through the list of videos before they hit the play button. So, make sure that the thumbnails of your videos are compelling. It’s not a good idea to use auto-generated thumbnails. Instead, you should use custom thumbnails.

In short, if you want your videos to get tons of views, we suggest that you follow the tips given in this article. With these tips, it will be much easier for you to grow your channel and get a lot more subscribers than before. Hope this helps.
