Summer Fun

Currently, the moon is in its waning phase. I like to make the most of this lunar phase. It is a good time to banish or dismiss what no longer serves you. I took an old pink litter box to Value Village and donated books to the library. A lot of other things are coming up soon too.

Tomorrow is the birthday of the pagan/ witchcraft author Scott Cunningham. July 28th is the birthday of Stewart Farrar, Wiccan author. He made a huge contribution to the global pagan community through his writings. On July 29, there will be a talk at the Keshen Goodman Library by Holly Poole about Energy Healing. I enjoyed her last talk about the healing energy of crystals. The upcoming talk looks to be fascinating.

A solar eclipse brightens the sky on Friday July 1st. Around that time, the moon begins to wax. On July 8th the Celtic Tree Month of Holly begins. Holly stands for life force, and its thorns ward off negativity. On July 9th, Cliff Seruntine will be talking and signing books at Little Mysteries. I am sure that will be fun. July 15 is the Full Moon, also known as the Blessing Moon.

It is hard to believe, as some of you may be donning sun dresses and flip flops-and sunscreen!!, but August 1 is Lammas or Lughnasadh. Seems only yesterday I was braving snowbanks and now it is Midsummer. Lammas is a time of early harvest and the halfway point of our summer.
