Tarot Card of the Day – 7 of Cups – Monday, June 10, 2019
Our 7 of Cups from the upcoming Fairytale Tarot is mesmerizing, isn’t it? This card always has such a Neptunian feel, often calling for a reality check of some sort, when we allow daydreams and wishful thinking to cloud our perspective. Today has a positive vibe to it, though, as the Sun opposes Jupiter, perhaps bringing one of those pie-in-the-sky options closer to being realized. Th […]

Energy Update | June 8, 2019
Venus is a feminine planet that rules both Taurus and Libra and is the planet of beauty and sensuality. Taurus is material beauty, the physical senses and Libra is our relationships and commitments. Venus entering Gemini, the sign of communication, thinking, speaking, writing, social media and socializing brings a active and chatty energy. An energy that is more fast moving and that gives us a boost when it comes to love.
This is a perfect time to go out and meet new people and also for dating. It is all about expressing love, through the thoughts and words we use. We will also be able to define what we need in love and to connect on a mental level with another. Venus is also how we dress and present ourselves and in this placement we want to be more fun and light and express ourselves more. It will stay here for a month, so take the time to enjoy this transit!

Daily Words of the Buddha for June 06, 2019
Kāmaṃ kāmayamānassa,
tassa ce taṃ samijjhati, addhā pītimano hoti.
Laddhā macco yadicchati.
Tassa ce — kāmayānassa, chandajātassa — jantuno
te kāmā parihāyanti,
sallaviddhova ruppati.
If one, longing for sensual pleasure,
achieves it, yes, one’s enraptured at heart.
The mortal gets what one wants.
But if for that person — longing, desiring —
the pleasures diminish,
one’s shattered, as if shot with an arrow.
Sutta Nipāta 4.772, 4.773
Translated from Pāli by Thanissaro Bhikkhu

Foodstyles | Magnolia Table Chocolate Chip Cookies, by Joanna Gaines
“My dad has an intense sweet tooth, just like me. One afternoon when I was around 10 years old, Dad got a hankering and he enlisted me to help him make Toll House chocolate chip cookies. That was the first time he and I had ever baked together. Since then, whenever I make chocolate chip cookies, including the ones from this recipe, I think of him and that special afternoon we spent together in the kitchen.“
