Three rituals to manifest a partner this summer, according to a tarot expert
A spiritual expert has shared exactly how people looking for love can ditch the dating apps and use the power of manifestation to find a partner instead - and shared three ways to use the universe
Summer is the perfect time to strike up a hot and steamy romance. So if you are manifesting a summer of love, here's exactly how to do it.
Instead of endlessly swiping on apps in a bid to find your perfect match, a tarot expert has revealed how you can manifest a partner instead with the help of some spiritual tools. According to spiritual advisor Karyna Diadiura, from video streaming platform Nebula, manifestation "isn't magic" - it's focused energy and awareness "directed at what you truly desire".
The tarot reader added that when you clearly know what you want and align your body, mind and heart to it, you become "more open to connection" as well as noticing more possibilities that will help to "eventually attract what resonates with your energy."
Here she gives some insights into how you can put your manifestation powers to work and ignite your love and sensual energy...
Heart-opening affirmations
Karyna urged people to start their mornings with some heart-opening affirmations to "align with the right frequency". But the key is "to not just say the words, but to truly feel them in your body". Some of these include telling yourself:
"I am open to love and passion."
"My heart opens safely to new feelings."
"I am worthy of a mutual, fiery love."
Venus rituals: activate your inner goddess
The expert shared that Friday is Venus' day – the planet of love, beauty, and pleasure and encouraged people to "wear something that makes you feel sensual, light a pink or red candle, and journal about how you want to feel in love. Not a wishlist of traits for a partner, but your deepest desires in connection."
Date yourself
It's important to date yourself, even if you're looking for a partner. Karyna said: "Every Friday, do something purely for you: buy flowers, take a candlelit bath, treat yourself to a solo date or indulgent little gift. Being your own lover raises your frequency, and others will feel it too."
The expert said the most important part of these rituals is "truly believing in what you're doing" and when you treat yourself with love, you "naturally raise your vibration". She further noted: "People feel that, and it becomes easier to attract a partner who treats you with the same tenderness and reverence."

Superb new spaces and fabulous food on board revamped Majestic Princess
My wife's favourite dessert is crème brûlée, so much so it was the crowning glory of our wedding breakfast. And she's mad on anything almondy - you know, cherry bakewell, marzipan and the like. So when an Amaretto Crème Brûlée was the pudding du jour in the Allegro restaurant on board the Majestic Princess, it was like Mars(ipan) had aligned with Venus as far as Karen was concerned, her eyes nearly as wide as the side plates when she excitedly pointed it out.

Did you know with a Digital Subscription to Edinburgh News, you can get unlimited access to the website including our premium content, as well as benefiting from fewer ads, loyalty rewards and much more. Learn More Sorry, there seem to be some issues. Please try again later. Submitting... A twee intro I confess, but it just about sums up our experience on board this voluptuous vessel, just a couple of months out of dry dock after a major refurbishment. A brand spanking fresh look, sparkling new spaces, fabulous food and an amazing itinerary, all synergistically combined to make for us a fantastic week's foray into the Mediterranean. So, especially if you're new to cruising, let's first talk about what is included in the basic price of a cruise on board the Royal Class Majestic, a more than apt name for this sumptuous 3,560-guest, 18-deck, 143,700-tonner. Gleaming chrome and polished timbers abound, with elegant and contemporary decor, flooring and furnishings continually inspiring your awe and eliciting your gasps at every turn. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad The Majestic Princess has been refitted for 2025 | Princess All guests can expect a comfortable en-suite stateroom, complimentary dining venues including the three main waiter-service dining rooms Allegro, Symphony and Concerto, and the World Fresh Market place buffet, open from 6.30am until late for continuous consuming (note: take some elasticated trousers). Coffee, tea, tap water, lemonade, iced tea, and juices are also included. The fabled Princess entertainment, including daily activities and West End-quality stage shows in the Princess Theater, also form part of your fare, as is the MedallionClass experience, incorporating a wearable device. This ingenious little Medallion, supplied with a complimentary lanyard (or treat yourself to a watch/bangle from the ship's shop) is all you need to carry around while on board, serving as your room key (it unlocks the door as you near your room!), tallying up any bills or drinks allowances, and also acting as a 'finder' for AWOL co-cruisers. Via the OceanNow® delivery service, available with the Princess Plus and Premier packages, you can order a drink via the app (I'll get to this), go down a deck or five, and your waiter will still find you! The impressive Atrium and Piazza area | Princess Free to download from the Play /App Store is the Princess app, which as well as ordering your favourite cocktail while soaking up the sun, has everything else at the touch of a button, allowing users to access bookings, manage their cruise experiences, and interact with the MedallionClass digital features on board, including what's happening on board the ship, activity and entertainment-wise. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad If, like me, you also like a paper version of things, the daily Princess Patter pamphlet, detailing everything in print, is conveniently delivered to your stateroom the evening before. Of course, things like drinks are extra so there are various packages you can buy to suit all tastes. Princess Standard is included in the basic fare and covers the core Princess® MedallionClass® Experience, so you can purchase drinks individually at bars and restaurants on the ship and these are charged to your on-board account. The Hollywood indoor pool | Princess The Princess Plus package offers the MedallionNet® Max Wi-Fi (1 device per guest), crew appreciation and the Plus Beverage Package (15 drinks per day up to $15 each), unlimited juice bar, premium desserts (two per day), fitness classes (two per cruise), two casual dining meals per guest, OceanNow® delivery and room service delivery. This costs £50 pp/per day. For £75 pp/per day the Princess Premier Package offers the above plus Wi-Fi for up to four devices per guest, an unlimited Premier Beverage Package with drinks up to $20 each, unlimited premium desserts and fitness classes, a photo package of unlimited digital and three prints, unlimited speciality and casual dining meals and reserved theatre seating (for production shows only). Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad If you're not on the Princess Premier Package and wish to spoil yourselves, there are a la carte restaurant options onboard. These include The Crown Grill for a surf n turf experience par excellence, The Catch By Rudi, specialising in fine fish and succulent seafood, Alfredo's Pizzeria and Sabatini's Italian Trattoria, formerly Harmony Restaurant. A stateroom with balcony | Princess The latter is Princess' signature authentic Italian trattoria with a taste of Tuscany and beyond, featuring family recipes from handmade pastas to robust sauces and rich slow-braised meats. It's here we sampled the amazing Frescobaldi Grand Tuscan Dining Experience, a special evening dedicated to the heart of Italian hospitality, where we immersed ourselves into an exquisite six-course dining experience paired with Frescobaldi wines, designed to showcase the rich flavours of the Italian region. ($99pp) New spaces, I hear seasoned Majestic cruisers ask? I would first reassure them that the feel of the ship has not been compromised, rather an injection of appealing additions to complement the familiar features regulars look forward to year in year out. So, the former Vines Wines Bar has been given a Gaelic going over and is now O'Malley's pub, offering classic Irish comfort food paired with an extensive drinks choice including a curated selection of beers (including Guinness, obvs) and whiskey flights. Live music makes this place a great gathering place to enjoy the craic. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad The clever Medallion! | Dean Mellor It's one of several 'open plan' bars in and around the glorious and ornate Piazza and, so to avoid clashes, when one live act finishes another one starts – a bit like the Jools Holland stages – giving the Piazza the air of a musical hub with many guests even happy to give the production shows a miss and just move their cocktails from bar to bar. The nearby Bellini's Cocktail Bar is another addition to Majestic's drinking venue line-up (10 in total). Inspired by the popular drink, bellinis and cocktails are served up and finessed with Italian flair by snazzily-suited staff. The Ocean Terrace Sushi Bar (extra cost applies) is also new, as are The Shops of Princess, Alfredo's Slice - a poolside pizza lover's paradise serving authentic Neapolitan pizza crafted from scratch and made to order, and the Salty Dog Cafe, a poolside grill serving cooked-to-order burgers, hot dogs, tacos, loaded fries and more. A fabulous fish dish in The Catch, by Rudi | Dean Mellor A unique feature on Majestic is the indoor Hollywood Pool Club. Covered by a glass dome, it provides a comfortable temperature regardless of the weather outside and ideal on cruises to cooler climes and for family swims. It gets its name courtesy of a Tinseltown-themed environment with luxurious loungers, sculptures, and topiaries. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad There's so much more to talk about with excellent kids' and teens' clubs, the Grand Casino, Lotus Spa, Fitness Center - the list just goes on to keep everyone of any age entertained on this superb seafarer, but the final mention must go to the efficient, professional and ever-smiling staff who constantly strive for guest satisfaction - scratch that - guest delight. An amazing trip and ship, thoroughly did I mention that Majestic Princess will soon be sailing from Southampton? Keep on reading! One of the delicious desserts served on the Frescobaldi evening in Sabatini's | Dean Mellor So where did we go? We joined the cruise halfway during the voyage on this 10-day itinerary, the ship having already visited Athens, Mykonos, Rhodes and Kusadasi before we joined in Chania, Crete, then cruising on to Katakolon (for Olympia), Corfu, Naples and Civitavecchia (for Rome). There are myriad trips for each destination available from the Shore Excursions Desk, but we enjoyed the following. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Olympia & Archaeological Museum (from cruise port of Katakolon) We put on our walking shoes for a guided tour via headsets through ancient Olympia where the Olympics began over three millenniums ago. Our first destination was the Olympia Archaeological Site, home to the Temple of Zeus, one of the Seven Wonders of the World. The Temple of Hera was also ours to explore, as was the stadium where the Olympics began nearly 1,500 years ago. Here's where more than 40,000 spectators would witness contests ranging from foot races to the pentathlon, and after nearly 1,500 years, the 2004 Olympic Games held the shot-put contest. A short walk away, the Archaeological Museum displays amazing artifacts from the site. Olympia, the original home of the Olympic games from 3,000 years ago | Dean Mellor Corfu Town & Cooking Demonstration A tour that wined and dined us! After a scenic 30-minute drive to the Corfu countryside, we arrived at a traditional restaurant, observing demonstrations of traditional Greek cooking before sitting down to a feast accompanied by wine. With a delicious meal behind us it was on to the island capital's Old Fortress, which stands guard over the harbour and Corfu and a guided tour of the town. Pompeii & Time On Your Own In Sorrento We spent a full day visiting the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Pompeii, marvelling at the archaeological excavations of a lost city buried beneath ashes from Mount Vesuvius's eruption in 79 AD. Our knowledgeable guide took us on a two-hour walking tour, pointing out the remains that hint at daily Roman life and how they entertained, decorated and lived. Highlights included stunning frescoes and mosaic-inlaid floors of wealthy homeowners' villas. We then travelled onto the beautiful city of Sorrento, where lemons abound! With 2.5 hours of free time there was plenty of opportunity to discover this charming place with splendid views of the sea and the colourful marina below, strolling the flower-filled main street, Corso Italia, lined with quaint boutiques and sidewalk cafes, and enjoying the must-have speciality - pizza!

This exchange is going to open up a new chapter in your ongoing relationship, a more grounded, truthful, and supportive one. And it all comes from telling it how it is, and understanding how it is for them too. Start talking.

Reclaim your space and territory. Stand tall again.

It removes a sense of powerlessness that has dogged you this year, puts you in control, and provides an open pathway ahead to forge your own destiny, right the wrongs, and set things in motion.

The procrastination has gotten you nowhere and the doubt has been frustrating. Push all of that aside this week and pick an option. Invest fully. Make it work.

Don't try and brush this aside or pretend you're not wounded. Embrace the feeling of pain, and know its source, know where this came from, who did it. And act accordingly. Maybe it's time to sever some ties, maybe it's time to reset boundaries, maybe you should protect yourself first and foremost. Take the necessary steps. Head here for everything you need to know about being a Scorpio November 23 to December 21 Tarot card for Sagittarius for this week: The High Priestess Meaning: Start a spiritual pathway, Sagittarius. Activate your interest in the esoteric, occult, and mystical in whichever opens up to you this week- follow the signs, see the serendipities, feel yourself being led. Maybe it's tarot, or astrology, or meditation, reiki, aromatherapy, oracle cards, mediumship, scrying, crystal healing or energy cleansing. Maybe it's something else!
