Greetings Everyone an Update on My Son

“A mother’s love for her child is like nothing else in the world. It knows no law, no pity, it dares all things and crushes down remorselessly all that stands in its path.” —Agatha Christie

I am sorry yesterday’s posts were not done and that today’s there are only a few. I just do not have the energy to do more. I will do Saturday’s regular posts tomorrow. As I have told you before when my stress level is high my fibromyalgia symptoms go off the chart of 1 – 10. So, all I can do is what I feel up to doing and can concentrate on. With what happened to my son it made me take a look at what is most important to me in many areas of my life including all things related to WOTC. I no longer care as much what amount I make monthly from the website so, I will be combining some posts again and taking some out. This is because I know how frustrating it can be to get a bunch of emails from the same place or website every day. I am cutting down the posts to just 6 or 7 a day for 12 to 15 daily. I hope this is good news for you.

My son is doing better this morning. The suction machine on his chest tube has been removed as the doctor says the hole in his lung has closed. In a few hours he will have an x-ray to confirm this. Willam says they will decide what is happening with him after the x-ray. He broke the 4th through 8th rib on his right side lifting a ladder onto a roof while balancing on another ladder for his job. The doctor said the punctured lung probably happened when he collapsed in pain after coming back down the ladder. He felt his ribs break. This has been this mother’s worse nightmare for any of my 5 children or 4 in-law children or 10 grandchildren.

He’s my youngest child so I still see him at times like this as a 6 year old with a cut just under his eye coming into the emergency room on a stretcher because he had to show a girl in his class how to hit the ball off a t-ball stand during gym class. That was the scariest moment in his life up until age 39 when this happened with his ribs and lung.

I thank you all for your continuing support and however you are sending healing to my son. You are helping him to recover more quickly than the medical professionals thought he would!! 🙂🧡🙏🌛🌕🌜🕯

July 14, 2023 Moon’s Current Phase and Northern Hemisphere Planetary Positions

Moon’s Current Phase

You can use this link to go forward or backward in time for Moon phase information. If you are curious, you can even find out what phase the Moon was in when you or anyone else was born.

From MoonGiant.com

The Moon’s current phase for today and tonight is a Waning Crescent phase. This phase is best viewed just before the sunrise in the western sky. In this phase the Moon’s illumination is growing smaller each day until the New Moon. During this part of the Moon cycle, the Moon is getting closer to the Sun as viewed from Earth and the night side of the Moon is facing the Earth with only a small edge of the Moon being illuminated. It can also be a great time to see the features of the Moon’s surface. Along the edge where the illuminated portion meets the dark side, the craters and mountains cast long shadows making them easier to observe with a telescope or binoculars.

Visit the July 2023 Moon Phases Calendar to see all the daily moon phase for this month.

Today’s Waning Crescent Phase

The Waning Crescent on July 14 has an illumination of 10%. This is the percentage of the Moon illuminated by the Sun. The illumination is constantly changing and can vary up to 10% a day. On July 14 the Moon is 26.51 days old. This refers to how many days it has been since the last New Moon. It takes 29.53 days for the Moon to orbit the Earth and go through the lunar cycle of all 8 Moon phases.

Moon Alert

There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions today. The Moon is in Gemini.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

After some brief tension this morning, today flows very smoothly. Take a short trip if possible. Reach out to others because you will enjoy socializing with siblings, relatives and daily contacts because you have lots of mental energy and you want to talk to people. Yada, yada, yada.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

This morning you might feel financially pinched or concerned about cash flow. But later today, you have moneymaking ideas, and you feel enthusiastic about how to earn money or perhaps even spend it. You’re in the groove! You might even give someone some financial advice.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

This is your day! The Moon is in your sign boosting your emotions and thoughts, which means you have your thinking cap on and you’re on the ball! You’re mentally pumped and eager to share your opinions, especially because you probably see a better way of doing something.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Behind-the-scenes research might pay off today. Or possibly, you might get a secretive piece of advice from someone? Whatever the case, you can attract money to you today. Admittedly, you will also spend money on beautiful things for yourself and loved ones. But hey – the Sun is in your sign and you rule!

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

This is a lovely day to schmooze with others, especially female companions – friends or members of groups. There might be a sense of competition present? This could be a good day to share your hopes and dreams for the future with someone to get their feedback. (Ya never know.)

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Today you are vocal and ready to express your opinions to bosses, parents, teachers and the police. Not only are you prepared to do this, others will see you doing it. It will be public in some sense. (Obviously, you don’t want to say anything you will later regret.)

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

This is an excellent day to study and learn something new because you want to broaden your horizons. Some of you will also enjoy opportunities to travel or talk to people from other cultures or different countries. Basically, you are mentally curious and hyped about things today.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Discussions about shared property, inheritances, taxes, debt and finances in general will go well today because you won’t hesitate to defend your own best interests. You also will not hesitate to speak up because you have lots of mental energy! Eyes on the prize!

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Conversations with partners and close friends will be lively and fascinating today! Nevertheless, you might have to go more than halfway to keep everyone happy. (A little concession and accommodation.) Meanwhile, your ambition is showing and it will be apparent in your words.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

This is a solid day at work or for any task that you set for yourself today. You’re ready to roll up your sleeves and dig in! Despite your enthusiasm and energy, accept the fact that you might have to help others or put someone else’s interests first. It happens.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

This is a playful, fun-loving day! In particular, you will enjoy fun activities with children and any kind of social diversions or fun escape. Sports events might be a good choice. Take a long lunch. See the gang at Happy Hour. Schmooze and have a good time!

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Family discussions, especially with female relatives, are likely today. This is also the perfect day to think about how to tackle home repairs and DIY projects. Fortunately, a partner or friend might lend some energy and get things going!

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actress, comedian Jane Lynch (1960) shares your birthday today. You are intelligent, magnetic and have a seductive personality. People respond to you. You know how to convince and persuade others.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

This Friday will bring you a lucky turn of events that will give you a sense of accomplishment and confidence.

Maybe you just managed to seize an important opportunity or maybe you’re just keeping an optimistic attitude about everything. It’s a great time to spend it with children or with young people whom you could teach something good.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Today might not be a simple day as certain obstacles are kind of lined for you. Make sure you don’t get trapped in all of them and that you don’t get so absorbed in dealing with one of them such to forget about the others.

You are also focused on the wellbeing of your family so it might not be a bad idea to sit around and have a talk with your partner.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

This day will challenge you into recognizing the work of someone close. Whether you’ve been helped by someone and now is your time to return the favor or maybe you have to recommend someone from work.

It’s a good time to explore new horizons at work and to gather around you people with the skills you need rather than plain ones.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

It seems that today you will be feeling somewhat overwhelmed by the demands of those around you, especially those of your family or children if you have any.

Maybe it’s time to leave work aside and to tend to their desires as things are going to pile up and it is going to be a lot more difficult to fan the fire of conflict rather than postpone work now.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Today you might lack the energy to even get out of the bed in the morning. It might be related to what you’ve been doing lately or maybe to the fact you didn’t have a good night rest but in the same time there might be other things bothering you.

Dig deeper and see what is really keeping your mood low and which the changes you can make are.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Today you are going to enjoy your place in the spotlight as it seems that everyone’s attention is turning to you once more.

You are determined to make yourself remarked and to show others your vast array of skills. Take advantage of this disposition and make a brave move by talking to a superior about your situation. Keep your head up and your confidence even higher.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Today you might receive an unexpected present or some sort of declaration. Maybe you have a secret admirer or maybe someone has just remembered about your upcoming birthday.

Make sure you leave work aside for a moment and enjoy your gift. Don’t hesitate to ask people out if you feel like sharing your good moments with them.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Today you should be all worrisome and attentive and not let anything to chance. Things are floating on the surface and they only require a gust of wind to swirl them out of control.

Make sure you check and double check all you have to do and all mail you have to send. Being responsible will help you avoid a lot of later trouble eventually.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Today you might appear as arrogant and self absorbed as you will tend to make everyone comply to your standards.

Both at work and at home your expectations are high and everyone has to work to reach them. Maybe you shouldn’t be that tough with yourself and with those close to you. You can impose respect with diplomacy also.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Today you are going to put on your responsible jacket on and you will make some important changes in the trajectory things have taken lately.

Maybe you are starting something on your own or maybe you man up to ask for a raise at work. This is a time for long term planning and also for buying real estate or stocks as a mean to secure your resources.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Not everyone around you will agree with your actions today so conflict might rise. Maybe you could act more diplomatic and try to avoid all confrontations.

If these things are not possible maybe you should try to keep everything separately and to not show so many of your activities. You should also avoid taking money from other people.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Your energy will probably hit a new rock bottom today and you might not be able to understand why. Maybe you’ve had enough sleep and maybe there weren’t so many things to deal with the other day.

Maybe your body is just responding to previous treatments you’ve applied and this is the signal that you should be more careful with your sleep pattern.
