June 11, 2022 Daily Horoscopes Digest

Moon Alert

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

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Today is full of unpredictable events for your sign, especially financial matters or something to do with your possessions. This means that you might suddenly receive an unexpected boon. Money, gifts or advantages might come your way. Or alternatively, you might suddenly lose money or something you own. Not good!

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Today you seek adventure! You might be full of Walter Mitty dreams or wish for the derring-do of d’Artagnan. “All for one and one for all!” This is because you want excitement and new experiences, especially in love and romance. (Good luck. Don’t leave home without a rose between your teeth.)

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

This is a restless day for you because it’s as if you’re waiting for the other shoe to drop. This is because basically, deep down, you seek excitement today! Something new and different — but you’re not sure what or how it should happen. It’s a tricky balance.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Today a friend might surprise you by doing or saying something you least expect. This might also happen if you’re involved with a group or an organization. Alternatively, you might see meet someone today who is exciting and different. Who knows?

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Something sudden and unexpected might affect your public reputation or your career today. A boss or someone in authority might praise you. You might even get a promotion or a raise? You might develop a crush on a boss? Admittedly, it could be a different surprise. Something not as nice.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

A lovely chance to travel somewhere might fall in your lap today. Or perhaps, you will develop a crush on someone who is different? They might be a person who is from another culture or a different country. Or you might also receive good news about medicine, higher education, publishing or legal matters.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Keep your pockets open because you might get a sudden gift of money, property, assets or some kind of favour from someone today. “Lucky me!” It could also be an inheritance. Alternatively, the reverse might happen and this means a sudden loss.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Expect a surprise from someone close to you today. This person could be a close friend or a spouse or partner. This surprise might be good news? However, it might also be not-so-good news that you didn’t expect to hear. Be prepared. (Boy Scout’s motto.)

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Something pleasant might surprise you at work today. Or possibly, some business related to a pet, or even to your health? Admittedly, the reverse might be true and the news is not so pleasant. In either case, you will be surprised by the unexpected.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Parents should be extra vigilant today because this is an accident-prone day for their kids. Do know where your kids are at all times. Meanwhile, social plans might suddenly change today. You might get an exciting invitation? Or existing plans might be delayed or cancelled. Romance might also catch you off guard.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Your home routine will be interrupted today. Possibly, you will buy something exciting, modern or high tech? A welcome guest or family member might arrive? Or possibly, a small appliance will break down or a disappointment will occur.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Pay attention to everything you say and do today because this is an accident-prone day for your sign. Therefore, think before you speak or act because if are mindful, you will have no regrets in the future. Meanwhile, surprising news might occur. Or you might meet someone you least expect. Not a boring day.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actor Joshua Jackson (1978) shares your birthday today. You are a natural leader who has good instincts. You think and act quickly. Your surroundings matter to you because you love beauty in everything. This is a year of change and greater personal freedom for you, which means you must be flexible and open to new ideas and directions.

June 11, 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.

Visit the June 2022 Moon Phases Calendar to see all the daily moon phase for this month.

Today’s Waxing Gibbous Phase

The Waxing Gibbous on June 11 has an illumination of 87%. 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 June 11 the Moon is 11.35 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. For more info on the Moon Cycle and on each phase check out Wikipedia Lunar Phase page.

The Road and the Milky Way

Image Credit & CopyrightDavid Cruz

Explanation: At night you can follow this road as it passes through the Dark Sky Alqueva reserve not too far from Alentejo, Portugal. Or you could stop, look up, and follow the Milky Way through the sky. Both stretch from horizon to horizon in this 180 degree panorama recorded on June 3. Our galaxy’s name, the Milky Way, does refer to its appearance as a milky path in the sky. The word galaxy itself derives from the Greek for milk. From our fair planet the arc of the Milky Way is most easily visible on moonless nights from dark sky areas, though not quite so bright or colorful as in this image. The glowing celestial band is due to the collective light of myriad stars along the galactic plane too faint to be distinguished individually. The diffuse starlight is cut by dark swaths of the galaxy’s obscuring interstellar dust clouds. Standing above the Milky Way arc near the top of this panoramic nightscape is bright star Vega, with the galaxy’s central bulge near the horizon at the right.

Today’s Word is

Burning Times

From moonlitpriestess.com

Alternate term used for the inquisitions specifically dealing with rooting out witchcraft that occurred in several cultures spanning many generations; a period of turmoil in which there was Catholic and Protestant conflict. Millions were accused of and an estimated 30,000-300,000 were executed for being witches. Those executed were hung (most common), stoned, drowned, or burned. Few of the victims worshiped Pagan deities; many considered themselves to be good Christians – though some did practice old folk traditions that are common in modern Witchcraft as the term is used today. This period was riddled with prejudice, discrimination, sexism, ignorance, and mass hysteria; it was an attack primarily against women and non-Catholics, not the equivalent of modern Witches.

From Spells8.com

A name given to the days of the Reformation, Inquisition, etc., when Witches were tried and executed by inquisitors, sometimes burned at the stake.

Switzerland Zoo Announces Birth of Rare Albino Giant Galapagos Tortoise: ‘Phenomenon of Nature’

Mom, Siblings, and Albino Baby

The Tropiquarium Zoo in Servion, Switzerland, recently welcomed two giant Galapagos tortoises, one tortoise with darker coloring, like its parents, and one with albinism.

A Switzerland zoo is introducing a “new phenomenon of nature” at its facility.

On Thursday, the Tropiquarium Zoo in Servion, Switzerland, announced it recently welcomed two baby giant Galapagos tortoises. One tortoise has darker coloring, like its parents, and one has albinism — a rarity for the species. The sex of the baby tortoises has yet to be determined.

Incredible birth in the Tropiquarium! We had the surprise of a baby albino among our baby Galapagos giant tortoises, a phenomenon that had never been seen in zoos or in the wild,” the zoo said on social media, alongside photos of the rare tortoise.

“These endangered turtles were born as part of a conservation program. These are rare and exceptional births, especially for the albino baby. This is the first time in the world that an albino Galapagos tortoise has been born and kept in captivity,” the facility added. “Albinism is rare in tortoises with about one in 100,000 individuals compared to about one in 20,000 individuals in humans.”

The zoo said the tortoises have settled into their new homes and are “doing well and very energetic.” The rare albino tortoise is out on exhibit, so zoo guests can meet the unique creature.

“With his red eyes and white shell, he’s the new Swiss mascot,” the zoo said.

The albino baby hatched on May 1 after its mother laid five eggs on Feb. 11, Reuters reported. reported. The other baby hatched on May 5. According to the zoo, the species has a low success rate for reproduction.

“After several months of incubation, we had the chance to see the first hatching, it was the second hatching in the Servion’s Tropiquarium, we already had one last year, this is the second,” Thomas Morel, a Tropiquarium staff member, told the outlet. “We were quite surprised by the tortoise’s color. It can happen at birth, but after two days, we were sure it was an albino when it pointed the tip of its head, so it was really surprising for this species, it’s quite extraordinary.

Moon Alert

Avoid shopping or making important decisions from 1 PM to 5 PM EDT today (10 AM to 2 PM PDT). After that, the Moon moves from Libra into Scorpio.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Today you’re in a position to take charge and go after what you want. In particular, this will apply to financial situations and any moneymaking ideas that you might have. Don’t be afraid to chase your dreams. Remember, you are the pioneer of the zodiac. You start things.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

You’re very persuasive today in presenting your case to others. Fortunately, Venus in your sign will soften your words. Nevertheless, you have solid, practical, moneymaking ideas; and bosses and people in power will listen to you. (Not too shabby.)

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

This is great day for research of any kind. You will find answers to old problems. Meanwhile, you can explore and discover practical solutions related to sports, children’s activities, plus anything related to the arts and the entertainment world. You’ve got this.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Although you are working low-key and behind the scenes, nevertheless, a discussion with someone younger or person in a group will be powerful. This could promote you into a leadership role because people will listen to you today. Make sure you have something to offer.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Today you are articulate and ready to show the world that you can walk your talk. You have ideas about how to improve things, which you want to share with bosses, supervisors and people who can make things happen. People will support you now.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You make a great impression on others now, which is something you can use to your advantage. In particular, discussions about travel, the law, medicine or anything related to university and college will be productive. People respect you and want to hear what you have to say.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Don’t shy away from taking the helm and making decisions because in fact, you know what you’re talking about today. You will be quick to see the bigger picture. You also see hidden solutions, especially regarding shared property and inheritances.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

A conversation with a partner or close friend will be powerful because you can see what goes on beneath the surface of things. It might be the elephant in the room, or you might simply say what you think out loud so that no one doubts what you’re talking about. (Somebody has to do it.)

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

A serious discussion with someone close to you could be revealing today. You might see a way to improve the relationship. Meanwhile, you can get a lot done at work because you’re not afraid to take a stand and do what needs to be done. This could mean getting rid of something (or someone).

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Although you are in the public eye today, this is a productive day for you. People will follow your lead, especially children and younger people. Be confident and say what’s on your mind because you have the opportunity to teach others today either verbally or as a role model.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Home repairs, especially to bathrooms, plumbing areas and anything to do with garbage and recycling can be done today. Get rid of what is no longer needed. Tidy up the place, “and play when the work’s all done.”

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

You’re persuasive today. (Look out world!) Home and family continue to be a primary focus but your ability to convince others to see your point of view will be respected. Obviously, you can use this to your advantage if you are clear about what you want to achieve.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actress Jeanne Tripplehorn (1963) shares your birthday today. You have a strong, vibrant, emotional personality. People are comfortable with you because you have excellent communication skills. Your loved ones are important to you. This is a year of building and construction for you, both in a literal, physical sense, as well as establishing more structure in your life.

June 10, 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.

Arp 286: Trio in Virgo

Image Credit & CopyrightNicolas RollandTelescope.Live

Explanation: This colorful telescopic field of view features a trio of interacting galaxies almost 90 million light-years away, toward the constellation Virgo. On the right two spiky, foreground Milky Way stars echo the extragalactic hues, a reminder that stars in our own galaxy are like those in distant island universes. With sweeping spiral arms and obscuring dust lanes, the dominant member of the trio, NGC 5566, is enormous, about 150,000 light-years across. Just above it lies smaller, bluish NGC 5569. Near center a third galaxy, NGC 5560, is apparently stretched and distorted by its interaction with massive NGC 5566. The trio is also included in Halton Arp’s 1966 Atlas of Peculiar Galaxies as Arp 286. Of course, such cosmic interactions are now appreciated as part of the evolution of galaxies.
