Spirit Library: An Important Turn (a message from Kate Spreckley)
It’s another powerful week as we move through the Solstice and towards this month’s Full Moon. Today we are standing within the Solstice gateway where a new cycle of our growth is being initiated. Life is taking an important turn but before we step forward and into this new cycle, a deep cleansing process must take place. As such, the incoming energies are moving to purge us of the past and the long held deeply hidden patterns which continue to keep us stuck

Treehugger: Swifts Can Fly More Than 500 Miles in a Day
One of the most interesting things about swifts is that they get together in late spring and summer for what is known as “screaming parties.” Sometimes dozens of birds will gather and careen through the air in tight formations, all the while shrieking as they dive and soar and avoid hitting chimneys and trees. This cacophonous, frenetic behavior typically happens during the breeding season

Inner Journey:
DIRECT YOUR EVOLUTION
“Consciousness is the basis of all life and the field of all possibilities. Its nature is to expand and unfold its full potential. The impulse to evolve is thus inherent in the very nature of life.”
— Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
Unlike other species, human beings can monitor our own evolutionary process. Better yet, we have the awareness and power to design our evolutionary path.
As creators, we are not limited to evolving through tiny, incremental steps. With our potent imaginations, we can design and manifest dramatic, profound change. How remarkable! What an awesome responsibility. What fun!
Our challenge is to break free of our present concept of reality to create brand new dreams that will bring the ideal to life.
“There is only one thing more powerful than all the armies of the world, that is an idea whose time has come.”
— Victor Hugo
“We lie in the lap of immense intelligence.”
— Ralph Waldo Emerson

Today’s Recipe: Watermelon Cucumber Salad
All of my friends loved this tasty, refreshing watermelon salad, so I thought I would add it as my first Allrecipes recipe. It was inspired by another recipe on here, but strayed far enough from the original that I thought it deserved its own recipe. Enjoy
