Spirit Library: Space to Adjust (a message from Kate Spreckley)
As July begins, we are still managing the energetic effects of the past month. As such we are being urged to find and maintain our sense of balance as we continue to experience the push and pull between the past and the future, the old and the new. For now, it is important that we focus on allowing and creating the space needed to adjust.

EarthSky News: Earth Farthest From The Sun On July 5
Planet Earth will reach a milestone on July 5, 2021, as it swings out to aphelion, our most distant point from the sun. Our eyes won’t perceive the sun as being any dimmer. And it’s been a blazingly hot summer in parts of the Northern Hemisphere so far. So you know our distance from the sun doesn’t cause Earth’s seasons. More about that below.

Patheos-Pagan: Talking to Gods
THORN MOONEY
How do you know if the gods are talking to you?
This is something I really struggled with as a new Pagan. In devotional spaces (as well as in witchcraft spaces generally, where we’re talking about spirit contact of all kinds, beyond gods.)

Inner Journey: You are complete
“Everything you need you already have. You are complete right now, you are a whole, total person, not an apprentice person on the way to someplace else.”
— Wayne Dyer
Close your eyes and imagine that everything you are is enough. You don’t need to be better or different — you’re great just as you are. Can you experience the peace and contentment that owning that perspective brings?
Moving into such total acceptance does not mean that we stop growing. When we can accept who we are now, we open the doors to our own inspiration to do and be even more!
“Wherever you are is always the right place. There is never a need to fix anything, to hitch up the bootstraps of the soul and start at some higher place. Start right where you are.”
— Julia Cameron

A Note from the Universe
It’s time you learned the truth.
Actually, you should have been told long, long ago.
You see, there was kind of a mix-up.
Things like this are never easy. But, well, to be as direct as possible…
You’re not human.
Of course, you probably just think I’m being cute, but the truth is that you are not human. Not even a little. Not one speck. Now, before you go all ape… realize that there’s a bright side to everything, and in this case it’s BLINDING.
You no longer have to behave as one!
Tallyho,
The Universe

This is a light dessert that I like to make in the summertime. It consists of a shortbread crust topped with a cream cheese layer and then fresh strawberries and a gelatin glaze. Serve with additional whipped topping, if desired.

Excellence
“The secret of joy in work is contained in one word – excellence. To know how to do something well is to enjoy it.”
-Pearl S. Buck (1964)
When we enjoy doing something, we put our heart into it, and it shows. What we enjoy doing, we do well, we can’t help it. And by the same token, what we do well brings us joy! We are rewarded for a job well done by feeling good about it.
-Lissa Coffey coffeytalk.com

Daily Tarot: The Wheel of Fortune
Whatever you have planned or prepared for today, it probably won’t happen according to the script. Be flexible and expect the unexpected. It may not be anything big, so don’t completely abandon your agenda unless you must. It could just be a day of endless interruptions. Keep that sense of humor handy, and maybe find an inspiring idea or two in it all
