Habitat loss and the specter of extinction are significant concerns in the realm of reptillian existence. Reptile Day encourages awareness of other nutritional foods reptillian, encouraging researching various kinds of reptiles, their natural conditions and environmental challenges.

Ive had 7 of those turtles and they all died ... it was horrible... in fact theres a ban on them in India and for obvious reasons... they are very delicate creatures and require immense care and attention.. feed the young ones twice a day you get turtle food in the brand taiyo which is quite famous in the country.. ask or order for them in aquarium shops..those have most of the vitamins your turtle needs...but most importantly, read well, and pay attention, MOST IMPORTANTLY you need to ensure that the LIGHTIN AND WATER TEMPERATURE in your tank are just right.. all my turtles have died because of improper lighting and temperature control... be very careful about that google for the exact lighting and temperature requirements and do all of that homework well or you may lose your beuatiful creature.. a tiny little glass pot and some water in it ARE NOT ENOUGH for your turtle.. i pray he lives happy and long... kindly don not encourage people to buy these animals though, we still need alot of awareness for them to be able to live in our country.. good luck!! (it may be very hard but your gonna also have to find a reptile vet around! all the best)

Do you like to sleep?

Yes I enjoy sleeping. It is very fun.

Sleep is one of those funny things about being a human being -- you just have to do it. Have you ever wondered why? And what about the crazy dreams, like the one where a bad person is chasing you and you can't run or yell. Does that make any sense?

Dreaming occurs in the fifth stage of sleep.

If you have ever wondered about why people have to sleep or what causes dreams, then read on. In this article, you'll find out all about sleep and what it does for you.

Characteristics of Sleep

We all know how sleep looks -- when we see someone sleeping, we recognize the following characteristics:

If possible, the person will lie down to go to sleep.

The person's eyes are closed.

The person doesn't hear anything unless it is a loud noise.

The person breathes in a slow, rhythmic pattern.

The person's muscles are completely relaxed. If sitting up, the person may fall out of his or her chair as sleep deepens.

During sleep, the person occasionally rolls over or rearranges his or her body. This happens approximately once or twice an hour. This may be the body's way of making sure that no part of the body or skin has its circulation cut off for too long a period of time.

In addition to these outward signs, the heart slows down and the brain does some pretty funky things (we'll get to this later).

In other words, a sleeping person is unconscious to most things happening in the environment. The biggest difference between someone who is asleep and someone who has fainted or gone into a coma is the fact that a sleeping person can be aroused if the stimulus is strong enough. If you shake the person, yell loudly or flash a bright light, a sleeping person will wake up.

For any animal living in the wild, it just doesn't seem very smart to design in a mandatory eight-hour period of near-total unconsciousness every day. Yet that is exactly what evolution has done. So there must be a pretty good reason for it!

Reptiles, birds and mammals all sleep. That is, they become unconscious to their surroundings for periods of time. Some fish and amphibians reduce their awareness but do not ever become unconscious like the higher vertebrates do. Insects do not appear to sleep, although they may become inactive in daylight or darkness.

By studying brainwaves, it is known that reptiles do not dream. Birds dream a little. Mammals all dream during sleep.

Different animals sleep in different ways. Some animals, like humans, prefer to sleep in one long session. Other animals (dogs, for example) like to sleep in many short bursts. Some sleep at night, while others sleep during the day.

Do any of you know how to read tarot cards,or know any websites that will help me learn it.?

I use this site and it has all the lessons for learning how to use and read tarot cards

I think intuition is a big part of doing a reading, here are some steps that you can do to help master your intuituion

1. Learn to identify your prevailing beliefs, judgments, and attitudes about the way

the world works and who you think you are, or how it "should" be--and be able to suspend

those ideas temporarily. Maybe there are other ways to be! Maybe life could teach you

something new if you let yourself become innocent, like a child again--with "beginner's mind."

Make space for surprises.

2. Become friends with your feelings. Just as there is no such thing as failure--there's

only feedback--there are no "bad" emotions. Emotions are simply energy and information

coming from your body. Be willing to experience every feeling that emerges in your body,

without labeling it (I'm angry) or putting a value judgment on it (anger is bad). Just notice

and describe the physical sensations of expansion or contraction, hot or cold, density or

lightness, and let them move through your body and evolve to their next level of expression.

Intuition percolates up from the body via sensation and feeling--nonverbally. Don't block or

distort that flow in any way. Eventually it will turn into an Ah-ha!

3. Remember to consciously pause between actions. Throughout the day, remind

yourself to drop into the here-and-now and feel the world from your body's simple

perspective. Be with what's happening in each present moment, without needing to shape,

change, or vote on it. It is the way it is. Life is proceeding in harmony. There's something

"just right" about each situation. Life is comprised equally of masculine (doing) and feminine

(being) energy and awareness. Make sure you have a balance of both.

4. Cultivate the habit of appreciating and acknowledging yourself and others for

good deeds, successes, uniqueness, and beauty. Speak words that benefit others and the

world--what you're interested in rather than what you dislike, what you're actually doing

instead of what you don't want to do, how you choose to be rather than how others prevent

you from being. Notice what's right with the world. Intuition flows when you see the glass

half full rather than half empty.

5. Develop the "warrior's attention." Like a great samurai, be alert and present 100%,

in each moment, and 360 degrees around you. Be ready to act, without any biases. Practice

"engaged indifference."

6. Learn to check with your body and your "reptile brain" to see what you

instinctually want to do next. Don't assume that once you've decided, the choice will last

forever. The currents of insight and creativity can shift and weave into new pathways in the

twinkling of an eye. Check in many times throughout the day, "Now what feels right? Am I

totally comfortable, at the deepest level, with this course of action?" Intuition occurs in the

NOW, in the body, and what's true always has "juice."

7. Let go of needing things to be nailed down in advance. You can still have a vision

and goals, you can still make plans, but let it all be fluid. Visions and plans evolve constantly.

Affirm to yourself: "I know what I need to know exactly when I need to know it." In any

given moment, there's just one piece of information, one urge, one action, that's a perfect fit.

Develop trust in your own higher awareness to bring you pertinent and accurate insights in a

timely way. Act on the information you get and thank yourself for planting the right

curiosities, motivations, insights, and physical reactions in your mind, in a way that directs

you effortlessly to your next step.

Have fun,

~Sarah~
