People will often express themselves through their body language. These signals can range from being obvious to subtle, requiring you to pay careful attention. Try to look out for some of the following examples of body language to determine if a girl might be interested in you or not: Standing or sitting close to you can be a sign of interest. If she makes eye contact often and smiles or laughs a lot she might be interested in you. Lightly touching your arms or shoulders can be a show of affection. If she crosses her arms, looks distracted or avoids contact with you she is probably uninterested. Some people may differ in regards to how they use their body language. These signs won't always apply. Does she always come find you at lunch? Does she stop by your locker after school? Does she regularly visit you at work? Has she taken an interest in your activities? If she makes an effort to be around you, she obviously likes spending time with you. That may not mean that she is interested in you romantically but if she treats you different than all other guys there is a good chance she is. Many say that this is the best way to find out if someone is interested in you. Ask yourself if it seems like she wants to spend time with you. If the answer is yes, she probably likes you. If she is willing to make eye contact with you, that is a good sign to begin with. Our facial expressions are great indicators of our feelings. If the girl gives you a warm welcoming look and a smile when you see her that is definitely a sign of positive feelings. However, sometimes people might fake smiles. Learn some of the following traits of genuine smiles and fake smiles to accurately gauge interest: Genuine smiles will involve the eyes. A person who is smiling will close their eyes and should have "crows-feet" wrinkles appear. Fake smiles will generally not involve the eyes at all. There won't be any closing of the eyes or "crows-feet" appearing with a fake smile. In a genuine smile, you shouldn't be able to see the persons bottom teeth. Fake smiles will likely reveal both the top and bottom rows of teeth. If you think she likes you, there's a pretty good chance she likes you. Try not to spend too much time thinking about it. It's natural to be nervous about something like this but thinking about it constantly isn't helping anything. Take stock of the information that you have available to you and decide on a course of action. It would be better to decide to ask her out or decide to do nothing then to keep torturing yourself. None of these clues guarantee that she is into you, but if you're noticing two or three of them it is probably a good sign.

Summary: Read her body language. Take note if she wants to spend time with you. Pay attention to her facial expressions. Trust your gut.

One purpose of a voodoo doll is to provide meditation and focus. While holding your voodoo doll, focus on the desired effect you hope it will bring. You can buy voodoo dolls online that symbolize aspects of life like fertility, marriage, luck, prosperity, etc. or that represent one of the spirits. This process may require patience and clearing your mind of distractive thoughts. That is why it's also referred to as meditation because it's the practice of calming your soul in order to be more spiritually in tune with your desires. You can bring about good not only to yourself, but to others. If you'd like to bring others good fortune, use the same process but have a doll that represents them instead and focus on the desires you wish for them. There are traditionally seven colored pins you can use to indicate areas of your life you want to focus on. This technique goes hand in hand with the focusing technique, but focusing and meditating comes first, and then using the pins follows. After you have decided what aspect of life you'd like to change, prick the corresponding colored pen into your voodoo doll. The head represents things that have to do with knowledge, the heart is used for emotions, and the stomach is used for gut feelings or intuition. So, if you desire power in your life or a friend's life, then use the red pin to prick the head. If you desire love, use the blue pin to prick the heart. These are the different colors and what they symbolize: Yellow: success Green: money White: healing Red: power Purple: spirituality Blue: love Black: repelling negative energies Loa, the twins, and the dead are all spiritual beings of Voodoo that interact to bring you different things. In order to summon the spirits, a voodoo doll of the spirit must be created or obtained, you must focus on the desires you hope the spirit will bring you and light a candle in the appropriate color of the spirit, and then a sacrifice must be offered to the spirit. It may be helpful to create an alter for your doll so that you can light a candle to the spirits and offer your sacrifice there. Loa interact with people of the Earth and they are the spirits of the major forces of the universe--good, evil, reproduction, health, and all aspects of daily life. There are so many different types of loa and so they can not all be listed, but with adequate research you should be able to find the loa you wish to appeal to. The twins are a mysterious set of forces of contradictions: happy and sad, good and evil, ect. When honored, they may help you have the better side of life. The dead are the souls of one's own family members who have died, but family has not yet "reclaimed" them. If the family dead are ignored they can be dangerous, but if honored and cared for they can be helpful.

Summary: Concentrate on your desires. Use different colored pins. Petition the spiritual beings of Voodoo.

Bright colors really pop against dark skin and give you a dramatic look. Using two complementing colors on your eye will create a fun, dramatic look. Try pairing gold and purple by applying the purple on your eyelid and layering the gold on top, closer to your eyebrow.
