Moon Dance.... Moon Phases...by Maya Anthony"In the embrace of the night so new,Moon starts fresh, a mere silver hue.Crescent whispers, a secret untold,Beginning stories, ancient and old.Gibbous grows, casting a brighter glow,Halfway there in its radiant show.Full in splendor the night's radiant jewel,Moon's clima...

The Perseid meteor shower is one of the most popular and spectacular meteor showers of the year. It peaks around August 12th in the 13th and is caused by the Earth passing through the debris trail left behind by the Swift-Tutle comet. The constellation Perseus is associated with this meteor shower. It's a northern hemisphere constellation named after the hero Perseus from Greek Mythology.

According to the legend, Perseus, a demi-god and son of Zeus and Danae, who was a mortal woman, beheaded by Medusa, the snake-haired vixen, and saved Andromeda, a princess chained to a rock as a sacrifice to the sea monster.

Medusa was a monster in Greek mythology with a mane of serpents and whose gaze would turn mortals into stone. She was once a maiden but was transformed into a monster by the goddess Athena after being seduced by Poseidon.

Stop wasting time with all the craziness going on in the world today and get outside, look up, follow the moon, follow the planets, educate yourself upward and marvel at what lies above!

Ah the Summer Solstice.... the longest day of the year, shortest night of the year...it marks the first day or beginning of summer in the northern hemisphere and will appear at 10:42 pm. on June 20th, 2025 this year. Astrologically, the summer solstice happens when the Sun officially moves into the sign of Cancer. Cancer is a water sign, a nurturing, care giving sign that radiates warmth, security and love. Cancer is associated with home, emotions, intuition and nurturing. It is a sign which encourages us to reflect, reset and nurture what really matters.

This year, Jupiter, recently having moved into Cancer, the place where he exalts, is present as the Sun moves into the sign of Cancer making a beautiful conjunction or blending of the Sun and Jupiter, also known as cazimi. At the same time the Moon moves into Ta**us, her happy place, her domicile, and sextiles this Sun/Jupiter cazimi. In astrology a sextile is a gentile, helpful influence in the sky.

Take this time to relax, love and nurture yourself and all those you love showering them with the light of the planets' energies. This is a time of celebration, new vibrations, renewed spirit and glow.

Love Raven....
