Astrology | Jupiter Direct July 10
JUPITER turns Direct July 10 @ 13 degrees 20 minutes of Scorpio
after being Retrograde since March 8th @ 23 degrees 13 Scorpio. Now everything that has been brewing percolating decomposing reconstructing dying and being recycled in the collective unconscious and in our own psyche’s will begin to reflesh itself back to life rising like a Phoenix.
Jupiters color is PURPLE. A purple heart is a high medal for bravery in war. Purple is the color of royalty. Retrograde Jupiter made our emotional and soul energy held back. But we are about to pass GO.
JUPITER is really revved up as he turns DIRECT. Jupiter is the planet of expansion, optimism, trust, faith, higher intentions and truth. Key issues that Jupiter rules – legal issues- judges- Trump just appointed his Supreme Court pick. Immigrants-sexual harassment cases- pedophilia etc. all will move forwards now.
Jupiter turns DIRECT @ 13+ degrees SCORPIO where he…

Card of the Day – 10 of Cups – Tuesday, July 10, 2018
Jupiter is standing still in the sky today, and at some point in your day, is returning to direct motion. It is our planet of expansion, our giver of gifts and good luck, now poised to start dropping its blessings to many, giving some a double dose of good luck along the way. In two days, we will have a New Moon Partial Solar Eclipse in Cancer making many themes this week appear to be more emotionally-based. The 10 of Cups feels appropriate here as it sort of ties the two of these together to move you closer to the happiness you seek.
The 10 of Cups is a card of emotional fulfillment, and, it is entirely possible (let’s not forget yesterday’s Star card), to see some incredible highs, even if they do not directly affect us, as well as some lows, for we are well into a roller coaster…

Daily Words of the Buddha for July 09, 2018
Ubhinnamatthaṃ carati,
attano ca parassa ca;
paraṃ saṅkupitaṃ ñatvā,

Knowing that the other person is angry,
one who remains mindful and calm
acts for one’s own best interest
and for the other’s interest, too.

Astrology | New Moon in Cancer, Solar Eclipse, July 12th, 2018 ~ Ascension Process
The New Moon and Partial Solar Eclipse on July 12th, 2018 at 11:47pm ADT. is a transformational PORTAL ~ that you will be entering.
This is a Powerful Transition into the stepping into the awareness of your Divine Ascended Self ~ fully realized. The levels of transformative powers through this New moon, Pluto and Partial Solar Eclipse, will allow any fears hidden, to surface.
When fears arise the release may feel like a crisis emotionally and mentally. Non resistance is the key to allow change, with the greatest ease. The old way of functioning through ego in the 3rd and 4th dimensions are becoming extinct.
Entering timelessness, releasing all fears related to time, allows the ease and grace of your eternal Self to be adopted of sorts, by you consciously. When this taking on occurs, the awareness of the self who existed in the 3rd and 4th Dimension, becomes fully…

Astrology | Sun Trine Neptune Garden of Eden
July 8 A Taurus Moon keeps us grounded and enjoying being in the Garden of Eden.
Water Trine of Cancer Sun and Neptune in Pisces is exact a beautiful dreamy creative romantic idealistic energy. A great time to meditate to go with the flow to be in water to receive like the Holy Grail the divine’s love for yourself. Psychic and emotional energies are high and we are super sensitive to love and compassion.
Jupiter Retrorgade is also pulled into this energy creating a Grand Water Trine.
Jupiter is tres powerful as he is almost stationary about to turn direct on July 10th. This is a lovely washing cleansing energy.
Later in the Day, the Bull Moon trines Pluto in the sign of the Goat to form an Earth Trine.
These are lovely positive aspects and the earth trine balances out the water trine.
If you have planets at 12-20 degrees…

Card of the Day – Queen of Cups – Sunday, July 8, 2018
The Queen of Cups is one of my favorite Queens; it is perhaps a tossup between her and the Queen of Pentacles. She is the emmbodiment of all that is good, kind, compassionate, and right with the world. She possesses a basic calm between both inner and outer emotions which makes her the perfect ally in times of crisis, often counted among first responders and medical professionals. Whether this is you, or someone you know, and it can be male or female, there is a sense here today of taking care of the children, and being admired by them. The gentleness of this person shines forth a light to bless the little ones.
If you are seeking a new job, and have been wary as to what to do now that Mercury has entered shadow, as it prepares to retrograde on the 26th, never fear. Go ahead and live your…

Good morning, everyone, and Happy Aloha Sunday. Relax, have a wonderful day with family and friends. Peace be with you.
Card of the Day – 5 of Wands – Saturday, July 7, 2018
Progress is the name of the game. Yesterday, you were tasked with the assessment of all of your current projects, and reminded not to begin anything new. Today, Mercury has entered its shadow phase as it prepares to retrograde alongside the current gang hanging out in the retrograde column. There are currently six retrograde heavenly bodies, and thankfully we will see Jupiter go direct before Mercury officially begins. The energies right now can often feel as though it is a bit of a struggle, especially lacking the forward motion of Mars energy to give one that extra push.
Change is not impossible for you now; take what you sent out yesterday and work toward your goals. Progress is real and possible at this time, provided you have not overloaded yourself for the long haul. It is possible that you will encounter dissenting opinions along the way; try your best to…

The Forager’s: Foraging for Summertime Herbs
Go beyond the confines of the garden and into the wild to find some of nature’s most valuable medicine.
Summer is the perfect time to stock up on nature’s healing gifts. But all too often we walk right by these treasures, not recognizing them as valuable plants. Learning how to identify and then use a variety of edible and medicinal plants in your region can open up a world of botanicals, not only providing you with access to important medicine but also helping you familiarize yourself with the wilderness that abounds.
Five Rules for Sustainable Foraging
Before you head out into the fields and forests to harvest plants, you need to know a bit about foraging ethics, as well as the dangers that certain plants can pose. In an environmentally fragile world, you want to proceed without taking from nature in ways that are harmful.
- Properly identify the plant…

Card of the Day – 7 of Pentacles – Friday, July 6, 2018
Today marks the fifth appearance of this card for the calendar year. Its timing today is right on cue, indicating that, this year, yes, you are working on your goals and manifestations at long last. This is our “Garden of Life” card, as I like to refer to it, and it is the proverbial “You reap what you sow” vibe.
Today is a good day for assessment. Take stock of your projects which are currently in the works. This is not the time to begin anything new, but rather to invest your efforts in those things which you have already begun. We are on the last Mercury-free day, as tomorrow, Mercury will begin its shadow phase prior to turning retrograde in the sign of Leo later this month. You can continue to work on everything you have in the works, but some things may ultimately require a little extra TLC…
