lolLove you libras. I have noticed this, I have a client who has sun in libra and moon in cancer and she is in many ways the female version of my husband who also has both of these placements. They both looooooooove carbonated water and my husband simply won't drink normal water. My supervisor who I think has Moon in Libra also drinks a lot of carbonated water. LOL IDK, I am seeing a pattern.... I think you libras like fancy water, mind you all three of this people are down to earth folks, not snobs or anything but I think this is interesting... Any other libras out there have a strong love for fancy fizzy water? IP: Logged |

I did love this Lime-flavored carbonated water (so did a cat, interesting enough, don't know the cat's sign). But it was only that, and the company had this idiotic policy of only delivering all their flavors at the same time in the same amount (I asked the store about it), so when less popular flavors (including their lemon which I tried but hated) didn't sell they pretty much stopped selling what was popular and thus went out of business, SMH. There were a few others, and also strawberry spritzers, but the prices kept rising higher and higher. What was frustrating is that the prices almost stopped being jacked up every 3 months or so once I decided I could no longer afford it, at which point their prices stayed the same. This happened several times. It's pretty rare for me to have it now, but if I wasn't worried about money at all I'd probably have a cabinet full of them along with plenty in the fridge. I'm more into juice (not cocktail), though. IP: Logged |

Yeah... No .I actually can't stand the stuff. I like my water flat and I find that any additives only turns the water into something other than a thirst quencher. Now, Electrolyte based sports drink are a different beast all together and work wonderfully after a workout. However, even then I lean towards stuff that has as few additives as possible (I can't stand Gatorade but will drink it if there isn't anything else available.) IP: Logged |

I’d think it’s more related to Virgo placements. I kind of agree with that “I like my water flat and I find that any additives only turns the water into something other than a thirst quencher.” I’d choose carbonated water only like a healthy substitute for soda and some juice drinks if I need a little sweet lift. I guess it would depend on a motivation behind it. I think the majority of people drink fancy water because it’s better than other sugar drinks. My Mars in Virgo so I tend to get obsessed about some eating rules sometimes.

I think Virgos prefer flat yes, I am very slowly developing an appreciation for carbonated water lol but is definitely an acquired taste I agree though is a preferable substitute for soda and is why he drinks it so he ends up consuming a lot less soda. IP: Logged |

Yes, I see it as a substitution for drinking calorie soda. We Libras like our sweets so if we can substitute a calorie free option that still has a "sweet" rather than plain taste, it's always a plus. La Croix has something called Cerise Limon (cherry lemon) and that is a favorite. I like tea too!! But, I guess "Cerise Limon" absolute sounds "fancy" and corroborates your theory. lolIP: Logged |

In my opinion,Libra(like Taurus) is ruled by Venus.They love fancy ANYTHING. My sister has Taurus Sun and Mercury.She is into good wine,fine dining,the "high" life etc. That kinda stuff is right up her alley. Also true are Venus strong people IP: Logged |

This actually caught my attention because it sounds like really pure water, it gave me that vibe so I looked it up and is like $30 for 12 of them lol on amazon but I must admit I am very curious to try it!!!! Is not carbonated which is probably why I felt drawn to it, it sounds pure and thirst quenching. EXCEPTIONALLY PURE: Icelandic Glacial is sourced from the legendary Ölfus Spring in Iceland, one of the world’s most pristine ecosystems. It possesses a naturally low mineral content that does not crowd the palate with heavy metals, minerals or silica. A water so pure, nothing is added; nothing is taken away. NATURALLY ALKALINE: Icelandic Glacial is naturally alkaline with a pH level of 8.4. CARBON NEUTRAL: Icelandic Glacial was the world’s first bottled water to be certified CarbonNeutral for both product and operation. ICELANDIC GLACIAL FULFILLS YOUR HYDRATION NEEDS: Icelandic Glacial has a variety of spring water available including classic sparkling as well as Elderflower, Tahitian Lime and Sicilian Lemon sparkling flavors.

I hated the Iceland one. It had a PH of 8.4, which may be why it tasted blah, but I did not like it. Back to Fiji.------------------ Want to Read Simple, Fun,Sexy Articles on Astrology? Check Me Out, DUDE. http://www.mychristianpsychic.com/

Not sure bout Libras, though I do remember a Virgo chick getting high because of downing too many bottles of idk what juice but it did contain soda too. Anyway I have noticed that my Cancer friends has a thing for cold drink, he's like "you want more?" , and I'm like "No baby noooooo"...IP: Logged |

Not that into fizzy water but the one that is pulling my heart strings and that I enjoy the most is the strawberry flavor one actually! IP: Logged |

Don't mean to be a Debbie Downer Capricorn-Virgo hybrid...but Cayce's guidance indicated multiple times that carbonation is actually fairly bad for one's digestive system. Once in awhile I'll have a beer, water kefir, kombucha, etc type carbonated drink, but I always stir out the carbonation. I drink a lot of herbal teas personally. And often I cold steep them over time (I run very warm most of the time, and don't like hot drinks). My favorite is a blend between a blood orange roobios and a "sweet" cinnamon blend (no sugar in either, but has a slight sweet taste from the cinnamon). The cinnamon part is particularly nice because I've noticed it's anti-microbial enough to put off fermentation for the whole day (and even more really). It also acts as a mild mouth wash, when I swish it around, which is nice if I'm going longer periods where I can't brush my teeth, but will or need to be around people. I sometimes throw a pinch or two of Washing Soda (Sodium Carbonate) into my drinking water or herbal teas, to increase alkalinity. We have well water, and while it tastes great, it's somewhat acidic. The acid-alkaline balance in the body is very important, and typical American diets/foods tend to be rather acid forming, which combined with the fact that most metabolic processes are also acid forming by nature, it's important to get increased alkalinity from one's foods and beverages. I'm trying to make water kefir of mine own, using coconut sugar instead of white sugar, but either the commercial kefir culture I'm using (from Costco) is too dead, or it doesn't like the coconut sugar as a food source. I prefer it over Kombucha as there is no caffeine and it has a milder, less acidic taste. And I just had a dream indicating it was healthy for this body. It was a brief snippet of hearing like a news announcement of something like, "Russian researchers have discovered that water kefir has health benefits" I had the guidance dream message because I've been on the fence about it and was wondering how could something that lives off straight sugar, not unlike Candida Albicans, be good for our bodies? I wondered, wouldn't it over grow and make our bodies sugar and carb hungry like candida does? But apparently guidance says that for my body at least, it is health promoting (assuming in moderation).
