Lettre De L’ Éditeur

We have a great submission from photographer Aliona Kuznetsova who is working in Switzerland and who’s photograph is on the front cover. Also another great submission from Photographer Christina Weeks, who conducted Midnight in China. Fashion Designers Raoul Blanco brings his personal Private collection at the Woodworth.and Keno Kouture shows off his collection as well as, his men collection.

Raoul Blanco shows his private collection with custom jewelry designer Vanessa Winchester who will be featured on our March issue of MOI magazine. We are currently looking for models, to take mostly headshots with Vanessa’s fabulous jewelry designs .

Keno Kouture fashion designer has his own brand and its HOT. I had the pleasure working with Keno and his fabulous models, that he personally selects literally around the world models. Keno’s brand is growing quickly and is currently working with Fashion Week Coastal and New Orleans Fashion Week. He is definitely one to watch out for.

I also had the pleasure of working with talented Creative Director/Wardobe Stylist Tedrine Glover. Her photos are stylish and unique and I would love to have more opportunities of working with her and have her photos in MOI magazine.

New Orleans Psychic -medium Cari Roy, who is the easiest person to talk to, saw my vision and join the fashionista band wagon, with little guidance. MOI magazine just would not be same without Cari, I thank you my dear.

Finally, from MOI staff, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, remember, always be fashionable. See you guys in 2018.

ASTRO/MOI The Stars Design For You

New Orleans Psychic - Medium-Astrologer: Cari Roy

Ms. Roy has been featured on The Today Show, A&E Network, Fox News and The Discovery and The Travel Channels.

DECEMBER 2017

Sagittarius – God and Goddesses of Truth and Justice - This past year has been filled with one step forwards and two steps back. It would seem as though the heavens have been testing you and everything you put your mind to has just gone poof. It’s true. Everything that you have been through recently has prepared you for the positive opportunities lie ahead. This year will feel much easier and calm. Pat yourself on the back for becoming a bright, shining and strong human being to go out and do good in the world.

Capricorn - Allow others the benefit of the doubt and don’t race too quickly to condemn. Adopt a wait and see attitude. You are hypervigilant these days and are thinking too far in advance. Let life unfold a bit and relax.

Aquarius – It’s all beginning to fall into place. The powers that be have heard your pleas and are starting to respond nicely. You are in a lucky phase where what you put out will come back pretty easy. Be wise in what you ask for.

Pisces - Your dreams are attempting to give you solutions. Pay extra attention to what they are trying to tell you. Your intuition is at an all time high and you are able to sense the whole world around you. Meditate and listen to your soul.

Aries - Others appreciate honesty so do your best to keep it real. be yourself - deep, authentic and raw. Now is a powerful time for creative expression. Focus on your inner world and how you can connect that and make it come forth.

Taurus – Your moods are shifting rapidly up, down and sideways. Surrender to unpredictability and keep them guessing who you are today. There is such a thing as chaos and you are feeling it a bit these days. Do deep breathing and meditate.

Gemini - Others crave the spotlight. don’t get sucked into drama not of your own design. Ask yourself who is draining around you and set a healthy boundary there. You have a finite amount of energy now so make good choices where you spend it.

Cancer - Allow what has been heavy on your heart to be lessened. Speaking with others sets your mind at ease. There is plenty of support available to you at this time. Take a look at your resources and it will make your load a lot lighter.

Leo - Your words are pearls of wisdom and your input is sought by others. Now is a powerful time to see where you can give back to the world. You have so much passion roaring in you. Seek outlets that allow you to lead.

Virgo – It’s never too late for a happy childhood. Make funny faces, sing out loud, skip thru the streets-be silly-be free. Your inner child is very playful now and not likely to take no for an answer. Do what makes your heart sing.

Libra - Your praises are being sung by others. Be available for last minute opportunities. A lot of the hard work you’ve been doing is about to pay off. Reach out to potential partners in business and in love. Communications are favored.

Scorpio - All great moments begin as a dream. Deny external circumstance and let hope be your reality. You have to believe it can happen for you before it will. Focus on your wish list and make a vision board. Big things are happening here.

76

Sagittarius – People and situations that have hindered you begin to fall away. Restrictions are lifting and you regain momentum. Now is a great time to make sure you are ready, set and go. Things will start moving and shaking. Hold on.

JANUARY 2018 Capricorn – Horned Goat Gods and Goddesses – This has been a year of fundamental change. Things deep inside you have been stirring and getting your attentions now. Anything that has been self limiting is lifting and you have a chance to make a visceral and visible personal shift. Perhaps never have you been so emotionally tense but at the same time strong. This year coming up is for you a true metamorphosis where you shed the old you and emerge renewed. Your inner magnetism will be dazzling and your heart will feel full.

Aquarius - A bit of good news coming to brighten your days. Let that good feeling radiate into all areas and be happy. Life has been a bit complicated but it’s finally starting to shift. Expect life to be easier and more friendly this year.

Pisces - Reach deeply into your protective shell and remove what stands in the way of you being a fool for love. Your passions are rising and will no longer be denied. This is your year to fall in love with every area of your life.

Aries – Your abilities to connect to others is running high. Everyone you meet can be a potential ally and a friend. Spend time cultivating relationships and adding numbers to your contact lists. It seems everybody wants to know who you are.

Taurus – There is so much new info coming at you and it’s all good. Make sure to take notes because you don’t want to miss a word.

Play close attention to what is going on around you and make this a year to sharpen your senses and perceptions.

Gemini - Time to let go of an old hurt that’s standing in the way of your relationship progress. Forgiveness is key in your relationships now. Ask yourself what you’re holding onto that’s holding you back. Let go and be free.

Cancer - Just when you least expect it the unexpected always happens. Be open to kismet and ready for fate. You will encounter many synchronistic events that seem to be sent by angels to help guide and direct your positive flow.

Leo - You have what it takes to succeed even if you feel a bit shaky. Fake it till you make it and you WILL make it. Believe in yourself and all the hard work you’ve been doing. Things are about to take a turn for the good.

Virgo - Don’t try to alter who you are for another. Be yourself and let the chips fall where they may. You have been trying very hard to please others. Learn to turn that attention to yourself. Also, don’t try to change others in return.

Libra – Your mind is unfettered and highly creative. Your intellectual climate is perfect for brainstorming. Everything around you is feeling extra excited and you crave stimuli for your active mind. Put your ideas on paper.

Scorpio - Allow others their bad behaviors but avoid indulging in your own. Focus and clarity rule the day. Big things are starting to happen for you and you need to be present to reap their rewards. You time has come to win.

Sagittarius - You will get what you are after. Just make sure that the end result is what you truly want. Align your highest aspirations with your highest self because now you are capable of great things.
