Reborning TICKET GIVEAWAY: Win tickets to see the Los Angeles premiere of "Reborning," a darkly funny and insightful psychological thriller that takes an unsettling look at work, motherhood and the power of healing. A young artist who crafts custom made dolls begins to suspect that a demanding client may be the mother who abandoned her at birth. As she tries to unravel the mystery, she discovers the path to her own "reborning." A reborn doll is a manufactured vinyl doll that has been transformed to resemble a human baby with as much realism as possible. Although many consumers collect reborns as they would regular dolls, others use them to replace a child they once lost or a child that has grown up. The dolls often come with fake birth or adoption certificates, and their "parents" care for them as they would an infant. Because of their realistic appearance, reborn dolls have occasionally been mistaken for real babies and rescued from parked cars after being reported to the police by passers-by. Now playing at the award-winning Fountain Theatre, enter to win one of three pairs of tickets for Thursday, Feb 5 @ 8 p.m. by emailing us at eyespylareviews@gmail.com

Clairvoyant

Happy birthday to these celebrity January Aquarians: Stacey Dash (1/20), Jerry Trainor (1/21), Guy Fieri (1/22), Mariska Hargitay (1/23), Neil Diamond (1/24), Alicia Keys (1/25), Ellen DeGeneres (1/26), Alan Cumming (1/27), Elijah Wood (1/28), Oprah Winfrey (1/29), Christian Bale (1/30), Justin Timberlake (1/31)

The next few weeks will be about diplomacy and cooperation for most signs. This is a good time for negotiations, finalizing legal or financial matters, and tending to the home and family. We'd do better to not start anything new until we've cleared up the old. Water and Air will be reflective, but Fire and Earth should also slow down and review their goals. Anything involving details, paperwork, filing or the like should be done to allow a fresh perspective and clean slate. Clear up any confusion surrounding property or investments before signing on the dotted line.
