Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Business and commerce are favoured today. Look for ways to boost your income either now or in the future. (You’re thinking big!) You have the gift of the gab today, which is why it’s a strong day for those who sell, market, teach, act or write. Yada, yada, yada.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Lucky you! The Sun is in your sign dancing with Jupiter, which gives you good feelings of peace and harmony with everyone around you. Today you feel buoyant and enthusiastic about whatever you’re doing. You will be quick to see the big picture, and many of you will enjoy good fortune.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You make a fabulous impression on everyone today, in part because you are quick to see the overall pattern of things. You will instantly know whnt to do in a given situation.

Starburst Galaxy M94 from Hubble

Image Credit: ESA/Hubble & NASA

Explanation: Why does this galaxy have a ring of bright blue stars? Beautiful island universe Messier 94 lies a mere 15 million light-years distant in the northern constellation of the Hunting Dogs (Canes Venatici). A popular target for Earth-based astronomers, the face-on spiral galaxy is about 30,000 light-years across, with spiral arms sweeping through the outskirts of its broad disk. But this Hubble Space Telescope field of view spans about 7,000 light-years across M94‘s central region. The featured close-up highlights the galaxy’s compact, bright nucleus, prominent inner dust lanes, and the remarkable bluish ring of young massive stars. The ring stars are all likely less than 10 million years old, indicating that M94 is a starburst galaxy that is experiencing an epoch of rapid star formation from inspiraling gas. The circular ripple of blue stars is likely a wave propagating outward, having been triggered by the gravity and rotation of a oval matter distributions. Because M94 is relatively nearby, astronomers can better explore details of its starburst ring.

1.2 billion-year-old groundwater is some of the oldest on Earth

Groundwater that was recently discovered deep underground in a mine in South Africa is estimated to be 1.2 billion years old. Researchers suspect that the groundwater is some of the oldest on the planet, and its chemical interactions with the surrounding rock could offer new insights about energy production and storage in Earth’s crust.

In fact, Oliver Warr, a research associate in the department of Earth sciences at the University of Toronto in Canada and lead author of a new study about the groundwater discovery, described the location in a statement as a “Pandora’s box of helium-and-hydrogen-producing power.”

 

The South African groundwater was also enriched in the highest concentration of radiogenic products — elements produced by radioactivity — yet discovered in fluids, according to the study, demonstrating that ancient groundwater sites may one day potentially serve as energy sources.

The gold and uranium mine, known as Moab Khotsong, sits about 100 miles (161 kilometers) southwest of Johannesburg and is home to one of the world’s deepest mine shafts, plunging to depths of 1.86 miles (3 km) below the surface at its deepest, according to the mine (opens in new tab).

The new find follows the prior discovery of approximately 1.8 billion-year-old groundwater made during a 2013 research expedition (also led by Warr). That finding occurred at Kidd Creek Mine in Ontario, which lies beneath the Canadian Shield, a geologic structure comprised of igneous

Moon Alert

Avoid shopping or making important decisions until 2:30 PM EDT today (11:30 AM PDT). After that, the Moon moves from Leo into Virgo.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Discussions with romantic partners are challenging today because one of you might be critical of the other. Perhaps you have to say goodbye to someone? Parents should be considerate about the feelings of their kids. Goethe said, “Correction does much but encouragement does more.”

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Family discussions might be discouraging today. A parent might be critical. Meanwhile, very likely, home repairs and practical tasks need to be done where you live. Go ahead with your plans for these tasks and don’t let someone rain on your parade. Decide what to do, then do it. You’ve got this.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

It’s easy to slip into negative thinking today. We all do this. Everyone sometimes feels lonely, cut off or like they’re navel lint. But these negative feelings will pass! Everything is temporary – good times as well as bad times. (Hang in there.)

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Financial matters might look discouraging today. It’s the end of the month, and you’re broke. (Join the club – we number millions.) Some of you might feel criticized about your purchases or the way you handle your money. You feel pragmatic and thrifty today.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Today you might fall into worry mode. Too often, worry is a habit. Remember: “Worry is like a rocking chair. It gives you something to do but gets you nowhere.” Instead, you can channel this same astrological energy into working hard, especially doing detailed, mental work.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Although you might feel vaguely uneasy about something, especially if someone behind the scenes is critical of you (the worst!); nevertheless, today the Moon is in your sign (after 2:30 PM EDT; 5:30 PM PDT), and this gives you an advantage! Ask the universe for a favour!

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Discussions with a friend or a member of a group might be disappointing or discouraging today. Someone more experienced might make you feel diminished in some way. Eleanor Roosevelt said, “No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.” True!

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Discussions with parents, bosses, authority figures and the police might be challenging today. Quite possibly, someone will try to pull rank on you or act like they hold all the cards and you are nothing. Don’t let this get to you. (Insecure people act like that.)

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You have a choice today. You can either worry about something in the news or the media, or political or racial issues; or instead, you can use this same serious astrological influence and study or learn something new because your mind is very focused. What will you choose? What makes sense?

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

This is not an ideal day for discussions about shared property, insurance disputes and inheritances because people will be petty, picky and negative. They certainly won’t be generous. However, your mind is focused and detail oriented so you won’t miss a thing.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Take a lighthearted approach when talking to partners and close friends today because people are inclined to think negatively, and drape everything in black crepe paper. Yes, it’s that kinda day. But it doesn’t have to be. Focus on something that you want to do.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Today is a good day to do heavy mental work that requires a lot of self-discipline because you have this in spades! Seek out someone you respect for their advice. Take frequent breaks from your work to relax in between so that you can continue and persevere at whatever you’re doing. Pace yourself.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actor, politician Arnold Schwarzenegger (1947) shares your birthday today. You are confident and not afraid to think big. You are determined and creative, and at the same time, you are practical. This is a year of learning and teaching for you. Therefore, give yourself opportunities for time alone so that you can study and learn something valuable for you.

Explanation: Get out your red/blue glasses and check out this stereo view from lunar orbit. The 3D anaglyph was created from two photographs (AS11-44-6633, AS11-44-6634) taken by astronaut Michael Collins during the 1969 Apollo 11 mission. It features the lunar module ascent stage, dubbed The Eagle, rising to meet the command module in lunar orbit on July 21. Aboard the ascent stage are Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin, the first to walk on the Moon. The smooth, dark area on the lunar surface is Mare Smythii located just below the equator on the extreme eastern edge of the Moon’s near side. Poised beyond the lunar horizon is our fair planet Earth.

The Earth is Rotating Faster

On June 29, 2022, something extraordinary happened to the rate of spin of planet Earth. However, it probably had such a minuscule impact on your life that you can be forgiven for not even noticing.

Believe it or not, but you actually gained an extra 1.59 milliseconds to your day. We hope you spent it wisely!

According to TimeAndDate.com, on that day, our planet, as far as scientists can tell, set a new record for the quickest time to complete one rotation.

But what? Isn’t the Earth’s day exactly 24 hours? Actually, no, well, not quite.

The first thing to note is that there are actually “kinds” of days, depending on your definition.

The first, a solar day, is a period of 24 hours during which the Earth rotates so that the Sun appears at the same location in the sky. However, a sidereal day, which is defined as 23 hours, 56 minutes, and …

 Earth is suddenly rotating faster and the shortest day just recorded

Spell for Today – Collect My Debt Spell

Saturday is the sixth day of the workweek. It’s officially the weekend. Some see it as one of the luckiest days for gambling. It’s one of those days where you can do what you need around your home and relax, as well. You can take care of a little business, then, reap the rewards. It’s a really good day to do collect, courage, reap, gamble, and exercise spells.

 

Collect My Debt Spell

Items needed:

1 sheet of paper
1 pen or pencil
1 gray ribbon
1 white candle
1 penny
1 bottle of glue
1 lighter or match
Light a white candle and close your eyes. Think about the money that is owed to you and how you feel about that situation. If you are angry at the person who owes you money, get rid of that anger now. Get the sheet of paper, bottle of glue, and a penny, and place them in front of you. Now, write down how much is owed to you on the sheet of paper. After that, below where you wrote the figure, glue the penny to the paper. Allow the glue to dry. Without breaking the penny from the paper, roll the paper up and tie the gray ribbon around it. Place the scroll you just made under your bed. Soon, you should be able to collect the debt. Once you collect the debt, remove the penny, give it away, and discard the scroll.

Moon Alert

There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions today until 9:15 PM PDT. The Moon is in Leo.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Here’s another day where parents must be vigilant with their kids to avoid accidents. Meanwhile, social plans might change at the last minute. (This includes sports events.) This is also an unpredictable and rocky time for romance. Steady as she goes.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Once again, unpredictable events are taking place at home. Small appliances might break down or minor breakages could occur. Surprise company might appear at the door. Family arguments might upset your routine. Could be anything. Batten down the hatches!

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Be careful because this is an accident-prone day for you, both physically and verbally. Therefore, think before you speak, or act, or do anything. On the upside, you might have spontaneous, genius-like ideas! Expect to meet new faces and see new places.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Keep an eye on your money and possessions because this week has been challenging! Sudden changes to earnings or something unexpected impacting something that you own, are just some examples of what might happen. Keep your eyes open.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

This week is full of surprises – no question! The bottom line is you have to stay on your toes. Get your rest so that you can deal with the unexpected. In fact, give yourself wiggle room so that you can maneuver and be ready to go with changing plans. Be patient with others.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You might be privately upset with the views of someone else or something that’s going on in the news or in social media. Whatever concerns you might also be related to the law or a medical situation. Either way, work with what you can change; accept what you cannot change. It’s that simple.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Use your Libran diplomacy today if you find yourself at odds with a friend or a member of a group, which is highly likely. This week has been a testing time for dealing with others! However, you are not alone. Others have had to face this as well. Demonstrate grace under pressure.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Once again, you might find yourself at odds with parents, bosses, teachers, the police or partners and close friends. (It’s as if you can’t win!) Generally, if you fuel the flames of these disputes, it only makes things worse. Don’t say anything you will later regret. Stay frosty.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

This is a touchy day. Work-related disputes might occur, especially about travel plans or matters with foreign countries. Issues in the news or in social media might also create unrest. Fortunately, romance is sweet and affectionate. Financial arrangements look solid, as well. (Be thankful for this.)

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Today is an unpredictable day for social events, children’s activities, romance, financial speculation, sports and anything to do with shared property or insurance matters. Therefore, tread carefully! Think before you act and keep your eyes open. Bottom line: You don’t want to have any regrets.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

There’s so much going on at home with family members as well as partners and close friends, it’s hard to keep up. Your only choice is to keep your head down and your powder dry. Don’t be discouraged. Remember — the Ark was built by an amateur – the Titanic by professionals.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Unexpected issues might impact your health, a pet, or your job today. This has been the tenor of this week! Your only recourse is to go with the flow and make the best of what’s happening. You can do this.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Singer, musician Geddy Lee (1955) shares your birthday today. You are a gentle Leo who is practical and creative. You are also protective and nurturing of others. When you lead others, you do so in a subtle, gentle manner. Service to others is important this year, which means you must take care of yourself. Enroll in a class. Do a makeover. It’s important to stay grounded and balanced.

Oh, the Blue Jay! Through the magic of symbolism, the Blue Jay teaches us to follow our feelings and intuition. As a spirit animal, it reminds us that our personal power is in our own hands and that we are free to take flight at any time, which is another way of saying that we have the freedom to choose our own path in life. The Blue Jay is playful yet serious, curious and yet sly, intelligent and cunning. It is also wise and perceptive. Whether a friend or foe, the Blue Jay teaches us how to be realistic and yet optimistic, careful and yet daring. In its expression of personal power, it symbolizes how we can rise above obstacles and challenges in our life.
