EarthSky News:Gamma Cephei, aka Errai, a future North Star
Gamma Cephei, also called Errai, is a moderately bright 3rd-magnitude star in the northern constellation Cepheus the King. Cepheus looks like a child’s drawing of a house, with Gamma Cephei marking the peak of the roof. This fascinating star has played a major role in our understanding of exoplanets, especially in multiple star systems. And interestingly, by 4,000 CE, the slow wobble of Earth’s axis will have moved Gamma Cephei into position as our North Star

Patheos-Pagan: The Dragonstones and the Valley of the Witch
SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 BY IAN CHAMBERS
Exploring local folklore and landscape can reveal many things, not least of which is an adventure into the enchantment of the world, touching history and local tradition. Often, we allow our everyday lives to govern our actions and thoughts and we become creatures of habit, following the same routes and patterns of behaviour.

Inner Journey:
FORGIVENESS BRINGS JOY
“The greatest evil that can befall man is that he should come to think ill of himself.”
— Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
Do you feel worthy of having joy? Do you feel you deserve it?
The first step to activating our inner joy is to eliminate the blocks to it. We can start by truly forgiving ourselves and all others. Forgiveness calls for a shift in our perception. It is easier to forgive ourselves and others when we really understand that each of us has always done the very best we knew to do at that time.
“If we don’t forgive ourselves for our mistakes, and others for the wounds they have inflicted upon us, we end up crippled with guilt. And the soul cannot grow under a blanket of guilt, because guilt is isolating, while growth is a gradual process of reconnection to ourselves, to other people, and to a larger whole.”
— Joan Borysenko

A Note from the Universe
Do not think you have to get “there”—wherever “there” is for you—with what you have today, in terms of money, confidence, talent, connections, whatever.
Doesn’t work like that.
Once you set yourself in motion, the resources you need to complete your journey, again, in terms of money, confidence, talent, connections, whatever, will be drawn to you.
{Soft voice in the background, “Once you set yourself in motion…”}
Fade out.

Today’s Recipe: Real Lasagna Soup
(This incredible lasagna soup tastes exactly like a really good lasagna, but is a very rich, very meaty tomato soup. The little bit of extra work you’ll do—precooking the noodles, then baking them in the oven—is absolutely worth the time and effort. The buttery, baked, and toasted noodles that are then added to the soup make this absolutely phenomenal.

Today’s Tarot: Wednesday
The Sun: It’s the perfect day to resolve to be happy about every and any thing. You may wake up with a smile that lasts all day long. No matter how you feel, know that people will look at you to be cheered up. This kind of happiness is cosmic and the best thing you can do today is appreciate it and find joy in all those little things that surround you.
Today’s Tarot; Thursday
The World; Embrace now as a joyful day. At the start, look in the mirror and see the joy that’s already in your eyes. Work with contentment, spend quality time with friends and family, and share your love of life with every stranger you meet. You don’t have to be overbearing and surprise people with your happiness. What you truly feel will shine on its own. The little things may bring you the most joy.
