Welcome June!
As we start June you can feel the energy starting to quicken around us. The New Moon that we had set off a bit of an energetic firecracker with energy of change building around us this lunar cycle.
This Friday we have our Full Strong Sun Moon. Can you guess where it got it’s name? I know I’ve been enjoying working outside as the days finally get warmer and the Sun stays with us longer. It’s been waking me up at 5:30 in the morning and I’ve been enjoying it’s presence here until almost 9:00 at night. Summer officially begins this month can you believe it? We celebrate Litha and the Summer Solstice this month on June 21st.
We have some birthdays to celebrate this month. Gerald Gardner many of you will recognize as the Father of modern Wicca. Starhawk is a teacher and has contributed several books including the Spiral Dance which many of you are probably familiar with. Scott Cunningham is another important author who is definitely among the best read Wiccan authors. You will likely remember his Guide for the Solitary Practitioner and Encyclopedia of Herbs.

For June I pulled the nine of wands. Changes are coming your way. If there’s something that you’ve been working hard on you may find that the results are coming your way this month. This is a reminder not to give up and to make sure that you keep on moving forward. Often you will find that what you desire is just beyond on your path as long as you don’t give up. It’s a reminder to follow what inspires us. Taking that time to follow what inspires you is so important. I know some of us are working with some pretty busy schedules. Even if you can only grab a minute here or there, work towards what inspires you. You may find that it opens doors for you in the future.
Have an amazingly magickal day!
Much Love and Many Blessings,
Jasmeine Moonsong
