The Summer Solstice, or Litha as it is known in the old Celtic calendar, is only a few days away. The single day of the year of the when the light lasts longest and I want to put it in my pocket and keep it forever. I’d like to roll up all the beautiful hedgerows and the country lanes and lay them out somewhere in the sunshine so I can walk them all. I’d like to ask all the birds to keep singing and to stay in their nests all year round, as the swallows and the swifts and house martins all appear back in the eaves of our summer roofs. Wasn’t it empty without them?
I walk through our valley park and I wonder how I will ever live without the banks of cow parsley and the field poppies and the busy, busy butterflies and bees. It feels as…
Calendula flowers have a sunny disposition in the garden. Use its golden petals in the kitchen and be sure to keep it well-stocked in the medicine cabinet for an array of medicinal uses, including soothing ointments and astringent tinctures.
Since antiquity, calendula flowers, or pot marigold, have been used in infusions for many maladies.
Since antiquity, calendula (also known as pot marigold) flowers have been used in infusions for many maladies. The Egyptians used the petals to heal wounds. In the Middle Ages, calendula was used for indigestion and healing bruises and burns. In World War I, the herb was used on the injured to prevent inflammation and infection. According to Annie Burnham Carter, author of In An Herb Garden (1947), “In England during that war, Miss Gertrude Jekyll gave a field on her estate for the exclusive cultivation of pot marigolds . . . the flowers which bloomed there…
The Universe has placed within you a seed that does not perish, that cannot be mowed or sown over …
The sands of time being crystalline of nature hold an evolutionary code. The crystalline sands of time slide in and out creating a dimensional fluidity. Time seems to get away from us as we focus so hard on fulfilling daily needs and promissory proceedings. As the sands of time slide through the entrances and exits of all that is sacred, seen and unseen, humanity’s future is revealed and seen in a full spectrum of opportunity. As each person walks forward in their life, there is a set of active time-prints that reach out and touch all. As earth herself walks forward into newly formed dunes of evolution we all stand on the seashore of what is destined to be.
The feeling of utter aloneness envelops everyone as we walk into the summer. Time asks you to not give up on what lives in your heart, the promises you made to self or the creator. The Universe has placed within you a seed that does not perish, that cannot be mowed or sown over. The Universe has placed in you a time imprint that asks to be viewed under the microscopic eye of your heart. Earth herself and all her inhabitants are at a turning point that asks everyone to be explicit in the expression of every passing thought and every creational word, for they all count. No more excuses for the choices of those in power as they look for ways to polish their own medals.
This summertime higher stratums of light will be integrated into the soul patterns of Earth and all that is upon her. Every individual upon Earth has an opportunity to ask for Divine assistance, for Divine acknowledgment, for Divine intervention. Many allow themselves to be washed about in an emotional ‘tidal pull’ as the waves of change crest pushing them out of their comfort zone.
Each thought that humanity has is more important than the thought before. Within Each thought wisdom either increases or decreases exponentially. Every interaction with every person gives you food for thought to be digested at your own pleasure. Those that wear the higher configurations of light thru time will be asked to go beyond what they deem appropriate for their experiences. What this means is that you will be given deep soul insights that will ask you to fly higher and dance dimensionally. You will be given instructions from the Universe thru your heart that ask you to outshine any previous restriction. You will be asked to become one with the masters of light, the great white brotherhood, the angelic legions of light.
So many of earth have chosen not to change, not to move forward, not to believe and not to trust. So many of Earth have given up, have not seen their truant intergalactic landlord in eons. What you seek as a planet now has more mass to it. The biology has changed and shifted in the land of the unseen. As a planet you have always been asked to believe in what is invisible. You are asked to believe in a supreme being that has placed you here for your highest good and then walked away to another cosmic obligation. You have been asked to believe that every loss, every death, every dark day is really a blessings that holds a divine opportunity wrapped in love.
We come to tell you that the miracle that you seek is alive and seeks to find you as much as you chase it. It listens when you speak, it dances in your dreams, and it sees the pitter patters of your heart. The miracles that humanity so needs are guaranteed if one will only believe deeply, no matter how outer circumstances appear. For a single minute blueprint of doubt creates chaos. As the solstice births itself, deep emotions will come to the surface – angers and hates, loves, fears and tears from all the years. The solstice begins a seasonal cleanse. We will all be doing our emotional laundry and hanging it out to dry in the warm holy winds, as we enter the month of the she-crab.
As we enter new levels of our multidimensional self we come to a corridor with many choices. Do we continue forward embracing all the fragments of our humanness or do we stop healing what is not broken, or do we begin healing that which we did not know was fractured? All aspects of humanness, whether dark or light, serve our evolution. Every step, every mistake, every tear, gifts us something we so desperately need as we move onward and upward like Christian soldiers.
Throughout time we have given our hearts and our very lives to the Creator. No matter what form that God took. Sometimes it was religion, sometimes it was love, other times it was pure survival. Many times we were forced to release our deepest belief system so we could protect our loved ones and ourselves. This summer with its countless forms of light, gifts us in a way we could never have perceived. The light from the sun becomes more intense as it tries to force itself into our lives. Pushing and pulling and stretching our very nerve endings to the point of frying and fraying. The human body cannot take much more of solar probing, as stellar instructs ask more and more of us. Hence the universe is taking the backdoor into planetary downloading.
Within the crystalline silica composition of computer memory there is a doorway that has been invisible up until now, an entrance to knowledge. Since humans are so preoccupied with trivial pursuit the universe has issued a decree of unobstructed light infusion. All the computers of earth create a giant web of light. Like a spider that weaves her sacred geometry and knowledge in the darkness of night, we too come to a conjunction and intersection where we all must stop, look and listen to just what we are weaving for the future. The light has decided to surf the Web enabling it to distribute tens of thousands of instructs into our daily lives and subconscious. Instructs of healing, wisdom, truth and the true essence of love is given on a daily basis. Instructs that show us how to become the authentic self, be who we were born to be and do. These techno modalities will be enhanced and used to bring about a much needed planetary healing.
The dark and the light play out the situation via the internet, as good and bad, dirty dancing with one another. ‘All hands on deck’ is the celestial call from the Creator. Like a planetary game of monopoly all is played out revealing that which was once hidden. Sides are chosen as Angels descend from the heavens to take their righteous places among humanity. What does this mean for the regular human, well dear ones, first off there are no ‘regular humans ’ on Earth. All have volunteered for this mission outpost, knowing full well what was to come. Every keystroke, every posting, will have power. Every word (especially mean nasty ones) will be seen as a choice. This is greatest choice possible between that which is light and healing and that which is dark and lessens your love. Your words are filled with power whether spoken or written, use them for good! This 5th dimensional place is not strewn about with trash from the past, but is clean like a slate that seeks to be written on, with love and from the heart.
You are more than you think you are. There are dimensions of your being and a potential for realization and consciousness that are not included in your concept of yourself. Your life is much deeper and broader than you conceive it to be here. What you are living is but a fractional inkling of what is really within you; what gives You life, breathe, and depth. -Joseph Campbell
You might be experiencing the most changes on a mental, physical, and spiritual level now more than ever. This is all new energy but truly it is all familiar energy. Something you already are is revealing itself to you so you can step in your purpose and reclaim your divine power. All that seems like a chaos and uncertainty is a reshuffle for you to loosen the grips on controlling everything to remain the same. This is a time to start trusting more instead of trying to hold everything together so you can be in a familiar place. It almost feels like a rebirth. In all ways. In all parts of your life. This is completely normal. You are okay. Even if you feel symptoms you can’t explain. There’s so much happening on a cellular atomic level that sometimes we might not have all the words to explain it. This is a reminder to welcome new energy. Welcome change. Welcome what doesn’t make sense. Don’t fantasize about “that one time when everything felt so good” it is all good right now and it is all going to be greater but it’s a space of authentic reflection, acceptance, and evolution of your own self. You are always okay. In changes we always try to find what can hold us together but you are held together right now by the greatest source of power. You can breathe as you flow. You can continue on as you discover. There isn’t this and that. It all just is and the more you trust yourself and trust that it’s okay the more you’ll accept your peace. Accept your new blessings. There’s so much being reveled to you. You are are so powerful and so precious. You are safe and okay. You are loved. This is what you must constantly remember. In the darkest hour or the most trying time; it’s all just new energy entering. A greater clarity is emerging. A new beginning. Be very patient right now and trust more of what you can’t explain.
The gift of Dhamma triumphs over all other gifts;
the taste of Dhamma triumphs over all other tastes;
the happiness of Dhamma triumphs over all other pleasures;
the eradication of craving triumphs over all suffering.

Aloha i lā nani nōu. E hō’omanā’o i kā pulīki kā Pō. Ō kā maluhīa nō me ʻoe.
Greetings this beautiful day. Always remember to embrace the darkness because all creativity, all healing comes through darkness that is honored and embraced with love. Peace be with you.
The Full Moon happening on the 17th of June is going to sparkle brightly and powerfully in the sign of Sagittarius, sitting only several degrees away right from the so-called Galactic Center. In fact, being close to this center will upgrade and amplify its energies, and also raise the planet Earth’s frequencies. For all those […]
Full Moon blessings, everyone! Today is the Full Moon, occurring at 25° Sagittarius, and a glorious Full Moon it is! We are coming off of yesterday’s Neptunian influences and moving toward a conjunction tomorrow which is building between Mercury and Mars. Remember, Mercury is all about thoughts and communication, while Mars is action, energy, aggression, and impetuosity.
So, what does this all mean? It may be possible to find a little more clarity than you may have possessed yesterday. Breakthroughs and great ideas are possible now. On the flip side, there is definitely a caution, especially with a Full Moon in play, to think before you speak. We enter Eclipse Season today, and your words can leave lasting scars, not to mention permanently sever any number of relationships. Your Ace of Swords represents power, power which you wield; you can use it to help you clear your path in the…
Impermanent are all compounded things. When one perceives this with true insight, then one becomes detached from suffering; this is the path of purification.
Dhammapada 20.277 The Discourse Summaries by S.N. Goenka
I am dust particles in sunlight. I am the round sun. To the bits of dust I say, Stay. To the sun, Keep moving. I am morning mist, and the breathing of evening. I am wind in the top of a grove, and surf on the cliff. Mast, rudder, helmsman, and keel, I am also the coral reef they founder on. I am a tree with a trained parrot in its branches. Silence, thought, and voice. The musical air coming through a flute, a spark of a stone, a flickering in metal. Both candle and the moth crazy around it. Rose, and the nightingale lost in the fragrance. I am all orders of being, the circling galaxy, the evolutionary intelligence, the lift, and the falling away. What is, and what isn’t. You who know Jelaluddin, You the one in all, say who I am. Say I am You. – Rumi
BIG BANG Bombshell. Are we living inside a HUGE higher dimensional black hole? Is the big bang, and all that came from it, a holographic mirage from another dimension?
User:Alain r [CC BY-SA 2.5 (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.5)%5D Black Holes have become of interest to the mainstream public as the first photograph of a black hole was made April 10, 2019.
Actually intuitively I always felt the Big bang theory is false. I have my natal planet Mercury conjunct to the Galactic Center the Black Hole at the center of our Milky Way Galaxy. I believe that it is a huge wormhole into other dimensions.
The June 17 full moon is on the Galactic Center and a great time to meditate on the Black Holes in Our Universe and ask questions and see what comes to you in your mind.
Canadian Astrophysicists at the University of Waterloo have proposed replacing the Big Bang…
Decisions can be difficult when conditions are a bit foggy. You will likely find that to be the case today, with so many players joining the party – Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn, and especially Neptune, which is about to retrograde on the 21st. Neptune is like a big old fog machine some days, and Jupiter loves to expand things. Mercury provides thought and communication, which may not feel clear enough for a rational decision. Saturn is the proverbial party pooper.
Bottom line for today, if you do not need to make an important decision, put it off for a couple of days – let some of the fog dissipate. However, do not allow yourself to be influenced by hopeful outcomes. Do what matters for you and only you.
See you here tomorrow!

We have the recipe for the perfect summer treat. How often do you crave something sweet? If this happens a lot, you should definitely try healthier versions of your favorite dessert. This recipe is great for those who don’t have much time to try new things. Our banana bites are healthy and fit every diet […]
June 17 2019 is a full Moon in Sagittarius. Fire sign Sagittarius rules the 9th house of exploration, travel, and learning. This full Moon marks the peak of Horse month. Both Sagittarius and Horse are ruled by the element Fire. They like fast forward movement, and stay strong to the truth of their convictions.
The full Moon conjuncts Jupiter in Sagittarius that’s fortunate for everyone. People are in touch with their emotions, and have heightened intuition. Contact me for your tarot card reading or astrology charts for guidance.
Mercury conjuncts Mars in Cancer. The power of Mars is softened by Water sign Cancer. Still, there’s increased mental energy to talk your way to success, or skillfully debate your ideas. It’s good to finish projects as the lunar cycle wanes, especially before Mercury retrograde July 7 – 31.
Saturn conjuncts Pluto in Capricorn. The old order of Saturn changes through Pluto…
As I came upon this card today, and I was looking at what is going on in the skies, I concluded it is indeed the right card for today. We are only two days from the Full Moon in Sagittarius (the Moon enters Sagittarius early here today), and are currently sandwiched in between two separate aspects, one yesterday involving Mars and Saturn, and one tomorrow with Mercury and Saturn. So often, when we see a 5 of Swords card, there appears to have been a fight…
Our 5 of Swords will play out in all kinds of ways today, possibly most visible to all will be those individuals wishing to engage in battle with everyone around them, desiring to win at all costs. Perhaps they are feeling Mars’ aggressive tendencies, and would be best left alone to gloat over their “win”, which is likely to be short-lived. This card very…
