Not Feeling Good at All

I’m sorry I am not up to doing all the regular dailky and extra posts. I’m just not feeling good and have limited physical energy right now. I am going to take the rest of this week off. I will only be posting the birthday horoscopes and a spell a day until the northern hemisphere’s Monday. I will do the two posts when I feel up to doing them each day

I am hoping and wishing it is just a fibromyalgia flare again. But since Wednesday I have been bitten by two ticks. The second one feasting on my blood while I slept last night. I have been and will keep telling my body it is not allowed to get lyme disease. I ask for positive energy to be sent if you want to, to help my mantra of “I refuse to get lyme disease ” be stronger..

Thank you for your understanding and support not only when I am feeling totally yucky but every day. Much love and thanks to each of my brothers, sisters, and honored guests.

Webb’s Southern Ring Nebula

Image Credit: NASA, ESA, CSA, STScI, NIRCam

Explanation: Cataloged as NGC 3132 the Southern Ring Nebula is a planetary nebula, the death shroud of a dying sun-like star some 2,500 light-years from Earth. Composed of gas and dust the stunning cosmic landscape is nearly half a light-year in diameter, explored in unprecedented detail by the James Webb Space Telescope. In this NIRCam image the bright star near center is a companion of the dying star. In mutual orbit, the star whose transformation has ejected the nebula’s gas and dust shells over thousands of years is the fainter stellar partner. Evolving to become a white dwarf, the faint star appears along the diffraction spike extending toward the 8 o’clock position. This stellar pair’s orbital motion has resulted the complex structures within the Southern Ring Nebula.

Webb’s First Deep Field

Image Credit: NASA, ESA, CSA, STScI, NIRCam

Explanation: This is the deepest, sharpest infrared image of the cosmos so far. The view of the early Universe toward the southern constellation Volans was achieved in 12.5 hours of exposure with the NIRCam instrument on the James Webb Space Telescope. Of course the stars with six visible spikes are well within our own Milky Way. Their diffraction pattern is characteristic of Webb’s 18 hexagonal mirror segments operating together as a single 6.5 meter diameter primary mirror. The thousands of galaxies flooding the field of view are members of the distant galaxy cluster SMACS0723-73, some 4.6 billion light-years away. Luminous arcs that seem to infest the deep field are even more distant galaxies though. Their images are distorted and magnified by the dark matter dominated mass of the galaxy cluster, an effect known as gravitational lensing. Analyzing light from two separate arcs below the bright spiky star, Webb’s NIRISS instrument indicates the arcs are both images of the same background galaxy. And that galaxy’s light took about 9.5 billion years to reach the James Webb Space Telescope.

Today’s Waning Gibbous Phase

The Waning Gibbous on July 14 has an illumination of 99%. 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 15.63 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.

The 8 Lunar Phases

There are 8 lunar phases the Moon goes through in its 29.53 days lunar cycle. The 4 major Moon phases are Full Moon, New Moon, First Quarter and Last Quarter. Between these major phases, there are 4 minor ones: the Waxing Crescent, Waxing Gibbous, Waning Gibbous and Waning Crescent.

Moon Alert

There are no restrictions to shopping or making important decisions until 9:30 PM EDT today (6:30 PM PDT). The Moon is in Sagittarius.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

You’re pulled in two directions today. In one way, you’re in a no-nonsense mood, and want to attend to practical matters. Nevertheless, another part of you wants to run away and join the circus. It’s your call. (Pack a lunch.)

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Listen to your sense of determination today because you want to set things straight with financial matters, banking issues, insurance and inheritances. You have the energy to make this happen, and very likely, authority figures will agree with you. This is good!

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

You have to accommodate others today because the Moon is opposite your sign. However, all parties might need to bow to the authority of knowledge and wisdom today because teachers and experts might have some good advice for you.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

This is a strong way to start your week! The Sun and Mercury are in your sign, which means you are empowered and ready to speak up about whatever concerns you. Today you want to get better organized. A little help to do this would be appreciated. Hello?

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

This is a good day to sit down in a common-sense way and discuss the financial and everyday needs of children. You might have this discussion with a parent, a babysitter or a partner. Or perhaps you want practical solutions to sports matters or something in the entertainment world?

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

An older relative or parent might have practical advice for you today. It certainly never hurts to listen. After all, they might have some solid viewpoints you didn’t consider. Why not cover your bases and hear what they have to offer? The bottom line is you want to get things done.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

You’re in the right frame of mind today to study or make plans or talk to people about practical issues. You might even give someone directions or advice. Because you’re in a calm, reflective mood today, you might prefer being alone with your own thoughts.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

If shopping today, you will want to buy long-lasting, practical items. No frills, please. This is because you feel thrifty and sensible today, especially when it comes to your money and your personal wealth. Nevertheless, you can still make future travel plans.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Today the Moon is in your sign dancing nicely with stern Saturn, which means you will prefer the company of serious people. You’ll be happy to consult someone older, wiser or more experienced for their advice. You’ll take a prudent, careful approach to anything you do.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

It will please you if you get some time to be alone with your thoughts today so that you can do some quiet meditation or rethink certain issues. That’s because you’re in a careful frame of mind today, especially when it comes to practical matters.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

This is a solid day to seek the advice of someone older, wiser or more experienced than you. This person could be a friend or a teacher. In particular, you want to ponder future goals and how practical or not they might be. Perhaps you need some advice?

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Discussions with bosses, parents and VIPs will be practical and fruitful for you today. Since you are taking a careful approach to any kind of work that you do, you want to make sure that you’re on the right track so that there are no later regrets. (Smart!)

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actor Connor Paolo (1990) shares your birthday today. You have charm and charisma. You are friendly, easy-going, kind and generous. Although you can be a dreamer, you are actually focused, motivated and ambitious. Service to others, especially to family, is your theme this year. Others will turn to you for comfort and courage. Therefore, take good care of yourself. Perhaps it’s time for a makeover?

July 12, 2022 Current Moon Phase Digest

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 Waxing Gibbous phase. This phase is when the moon is more than 50% illuminated but not yet a Full Moon. The phase lasts about 7 days with the moon becoming more illuminated each day until the Full Moon. During a Waxing Gibbous the moon rises in the east in mid-afternoon and is high in the eastern sky at sunset. The moon is then visible through most of the night sky setting a few hours before sunrise. The word Gibbous first appeared in the 14th century and has its roots in the Latin word “gibbosus” meaning humpbacked.

Some of the Witchcraft/Magickal Correspondence Digest for Tuesday

From LearnReligions.com

Named for the Norse god Tyr, who was a deity of heroism and combat, Tuesday is a very martial sort of day—color associations include bright red and oranges, as well as warrior-like metals such as iron and steel.

The ancient Romans called this day Martis, after the warrior god Mars—other deities associated with Tuesday include Ares, the Morrighan, and other gods of battle and glory. Red gemstones like rubies and garnets come into play on Tuesdays, as do herbs and plants such as thistles, holly, coneflowers, and cacti—you’ll notice these are all sharp, prickly plants!

One of the interesting—and more than a little amusing—aspects of Tuesday magic is that in addition to war and conflict against your enemies, this is a day also associated with marriage. You can also use this day of the week for magical workings connected to protection and initiation. Use Tuesday to assert yourself, make a mark and stake your claims.
