La’au Lapa’au | Southwest Herb Gardening: What To Plant In June, and Watering In June
We recommend most plants be planted in the fall or spring. However, if you must plant during the summer months watering may need to be more frequent and you must be diligent about observing your newly planted plants for signs of water stress. Follow the guidelines in the Watering section.
Many cacti and warm-season succulents can still be planted in the summer. When transplanting cacti and succulents, mark either the south or west side and plant facing the orientation you marked to avoid the burning of tender tissues. Most nurseries will mark the side of the container to help you determine proper planting orientation. However, if the original orientation is not known, newly planted cacti and succulents need to be covered with shade cloth if the plant surface appears to yellow or pale suddenly. Use a shade cloth rated between 30-60% as anything higher will block most of the sunlight and…

La’au Lapa’au | Southwest Herb Gardening: June In The Low Desert
June in the low desert is generally the driest and hottest month. Desert gardeners often must begin their garden activities in the early morning or at sunset to avoid the intense sunlight. Plants must endure the intense heat throughout the day. Many native and desert-adapted plants have numerous adaptations that enable them to live successfully in the desert, such as succulence, drought-deciduousness, and small leaves, to name a few examples. Even with these numerous adaptations, desert plants sometimes need a little help to keep them healthy and thriving in your garden. Native and desert-adapted plants that were newly planted and those that are not established in the landscape need to be watered until they become established in the landscape and can then survive with natural rainfall. Even established plantings will need an occasional supplemental watering during long periods of drought to keep them healthy and stress-free.
Summer is the prime…

Daily Tarot | Card of the Day – The Sun – Friday, June 29, 2018
Here comes the Sun! After all of the weighty energy of the Full Moon in Capricorn conjunct Saturn in Capricorn, it is time to lighten up and go have some good, old-fashioned fun! When the Sun returns, it is indicative of good favor from the Universe. The Moon will be void-of-course ALL day before its entrance into the sign of Aquarius tomorrow, so less serious times are begging to be had. Unless it is a project already begun, today is a day best left for relaxing and enjoying life.
In the Northern Hemisphere, for many, today kicks off a very lengthy 4th of July holiday, as many will take advantage and celbrate through the 8th if they can. The weather promises to be hot with the Sun blazing, and Summer in full swing. Should you be elsewhere, and experiencing Winter, I do hope the Sun is shining its life-giving…

“To the Mystic, prayer is a meeting of the minds. It is not an occasion for personal petitioning, but for spiritual communion. It is a time when the soul within us and the deepest and most inner parts of our being sacredly, sincerely, and quietly speak to God and express the deepest wishes of our hearts and minds.” — H. Spencer Lewis

Card of the Day – Queen of Cups – Thursday, June 28, 2018
Full Moon blessings to all! Today is our annual Full Moon in Capricorn, and we are officially in Eclipse season #2 of 2018. Who here is breathing a sigh of relief that today’s card is NOT the Queen of Swords? She always seems to be a regular player around both New and Full Moons. Note that the astrology of this Full Moon has the Moon in Capricorn conjunct Saturn in Capricorn (Saturn rules Capricorn); this can be a weighty energy, and with Mars newly retrograde you could be feeling all types of emotions.
Enter our Queen of Cups; generally, she is the calm, cool, and collected Queen. Her kindness and compassion is admired by all, and she is a beacon of light for many amidst stormy surroundings. Know that this energy surrounding the Full Moon will indeed pass, but that the next eight to ten weeks will probably leave…

Daily Tarot | Card of the Day – 7 of Cups – Wednesday, June 27, 2018
Today we have the privilege of seeing another card from the upcoming deck, Whispering Spirits, from Joanna Nelson Studio. This 7 of Cups reminds me of tomorrow’s Full Moon in Capricorn and the Moon card itself. In some ways, this card is somewhat a lower octave of the Moon card, whereas it represents confusion and fears, the 7 of Cups can represent confusion, disillusionment and choices.
Things right now may not appear as they truly are. There may be smokescreens everywhere designed to prevent you from getting to the truth. I want to say proceed with caution, as there may be those who are trying to pull the wool over your eyes. The 7 of Cups is a good indicator that there are phonies, those who wear masks, and do not reveal their true selves. This can apply on so many levels. Since we are entering a time which places…

Astrology | Full Capricorn Honey Rose Moon June 27/28
The CAPRICORN Full Moon is hard as a rock covered in Honey. The natives named this the Honey Moon Rose Moon, Flower Moon or Strawberry Moon, and the Oak Moon, Cold Moon or Long Night’s Moon from the Southern Hemisphere – and look in the moon’s glare for a starlike point. That point is a planet, Saturn. MARS is also at its brightest having just turned Retrograde.
As seen from the entire Earth, the terrible duo-the two most malefic planets traditionally will climb highest up for the night around midnight and will sit low in the west at dawn on June 28 and 29.
Saturn is opposed to Sun and conjunct the Moon. Full Moon is exact at 6 degrees CAPRICORN June 27 @ 9:52 pm PDT/ June 28 @ 4:52 am GMT
Mars has just turned Retrograde at 9 Aquarius for the next two months.

Daily Tarot | Card of the Day – King of Wands – Tuesday, June 26, 2018
Please take note that today, Mars, our action and energy planet begins its retrograde through August 27. Mars retrograde occurs less frequently than any other planet, so there is good reason to sit up and take notice. Today, our King of Wands is here to serve as a reminder to maintain that passion and drive to achieve your vision for change. Now is a good time to stand up for yourself and take charge of your life in some area.
The King of Wands can be you, male or female, or anyone else for that matter. It can pertain to a particular person, or even a state of being. This guy is the “Boss Man”, a leader among men, who stands up and takes charge, and you are not likely to find him down in the trenches with everyone else. He is more of an overseer, due to his entrepreneurial…

Astrology | Full Moon in Capricorn – Thursday, June 28, 2018 12:53am EST
Take advantage of the earthiness of this Capricorn Full Moon to ground yourself; this is good for perspective. Allow yourself to see through the bs and all of the illusions that others may create in trying to pull the wool over your eyes. The only way to go is straight through, not around, above, or below. You do have some solid goals in place, and need to remain focused on them, rather than on any controversies which may be surrounding you. Divine Intervention will inspire you toward new beginnings at the time of this Full Moon.
By July 4, you will see an important cycle completed, but so much more is ready to begin, and you are the one in charge of making your own choices. Remember, sometimes with creativity, you need to throw things out there until something sticks. Pay attention to all of the messages coming your way…
