June 8, 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 8 has an illumination of 59%. 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 8 the Moon is 8.24 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.

Spell for Today – Walk Backwards Return Spell and Concentrate Candle Spell

 

Wednesday is a good day to focus on getting over any slumps you may have. This day is considered the middle of the work week; and many people find themselves very tired by this point. That is why this day is a great day to do refresh, refrain, return, wake-up, and concentration spells. It is, also, another good day for meditation.

 

Walk Backwards Return Spell

Things you will need:
1 candle (any color)
1 lighter or match
Your body

Place a candle in front of you on a fire-safe surface. Sit or stand in a comfortable position in front of the candle and close your eyes for about three minutes. During the three minutes, think about what you want returned to you and how that item makes you feel. After the three minutes or so, get up and take twelve steps backwards and say this chant three times:

“Backwards walk.
Missing something yearned.
When I turn around,
It will be returned.”

After doing this, turn around three times, clockwise, and stop. Now, go blow out the candle, and your item should be returned to you soon.

 

Concentrate Candle Spell

Items needed:
1 small white candle
1 small blue candle
1 orange candle

Take all three candles and place them on a fire-proof surface in front of you. Light both candles. Take three deep breaths. Lightly tap your forehead with one of your fingers for a minute or so. You should feel a slight tingly sensation on your forehead. Now, look at the three candles and say this chant three times:

“I have the time.
I have the wait.
This should help me concentrate.
When it’s white And it’s blue,
It will start my mind a new.”

After you have finished, blow out the candles. From this point on, when you have problems concentrating, think of those white, blue, and orange candles, and the tingle in your forehead; and your mind should be better able to concentrate.

Ship Tracks over the Pacific Ocean

Image Credit: NASATerraMODISText: Raymond Shaw (MTU)

Explanation: What are those unusual streaks? Some images of planet Earth show clear bright streaks that follow the paths of ships. Known as ship tracks, these low and narrow bands are caused by the ship’s engine exhaust. Water vapor condenses around small bits of exhaust known as aerosols, which soon grow into floating water drops that efficiently reflect sunlight. Ship tracks were first discovered in 1965 in Earth images taken by NASA’s TIROS satellites. Multiple ship tracks are visible across the featured image that was captured in 2009 over the Pacific Ocean by the MODIS instrument on NASA’s Terra satellite. Inspired by ship-tracks, some scientists have suggested deploying a network of floating buoys in the worlds’ oceans that spray salt-aerosol containing sea-water into the air so that, with the help of the wind, streams of sunlight-reflecting clouds would also form. Why do this? These human-made clouds could reflect so much sunlight they might help fight global warming.

A Thought for Today

Until we meet again dear sisters, brothers, and honored guests may your life be filled with all things positive!

June 7, 2022 Daily Horoscopes Digest

Click here for Georgia Nicols daily horoscopes

Moon Alert

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

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Unexpected events might catch you off guard today, especially something that is related to your health or your work. (This might also be something related to your pet; so be alert.) At work, allow extra time to deal with such surprises as machinery breakdowns, staff shortages and late deliveries. “What, again?”

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Parents, please keep an eye on your kids today because this is an accident-prone day for your children. Likewise, social events might suddenly change. They might be cancelled or you might receive a surprise invitation? Sports results will surprise. You feel free today!

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Your home routine might change today because small appliances might break down or something unexpected could occur. Someone unexpected might knock at your door. To be ready for anything, get dressed. It’s a mild influence but nevertheless, something will catch you off guard.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

This is a mildly accident-prone day so be careful. Pay attention to everything you say and do. Especially when it comes to travel, give yourself extra time so you can cope with whatever occurs. The upside, you can think outside of the box and come up with clever, genius-like ideas!

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Keep an eye on your money and your assets today because something unexpected might impact them. For example, possibly, you will find money or you will lose money. In the same vein, (but a different arm) be smart and protect your belongings from loss, theft or damage. Play it safe today.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Today the Moon is in your sign dancing with wild, wacky Uranus. This is why you feel restless and eager for something different and new to happen. You might even play the role of the trickster and stir the pot, as it were, when dealing with someone just to see what happens. (Be nice.)

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Something unexpected might occur today, possibly behind the scenes. In a way, this will intrigue you because you crave emotional excitement today. Preferably across the street – not in your face. Something you can watch from afar.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You might find yourself dealing with friends or groups of people who advocate for new policies or reform in some fashion. Their platform will excite you. Possibly, you will want to give input to what they are doing? A friend might surprise you today.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You might find yourself at odds with a group that you are working with or alternatively, they embrace you with admiration. Could go either way. Whatever the case, you are high viz. perhaps for taking a stand or saying something unusual.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Travel plans might change today. They could be cancelled or delayed or in turn, you might suddenly have to travel when you did not expect to do so. News in the media might surprise you. You certainly want the freedom to express your views.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Double check banking details and anything to do with taxes, debt, insurance issues and the wealth or assets of your partner because something unexpected could impact these areas. When it comes to money or wealth that affects you – be in the know.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Don’t be surprised if a partner or close friend catches you off guard today by saying or doing something you did not expect. (This is classic for a day when the Moon is stimulated by unpredictable Uranus.) Many people are caught off guard by minor events or conversations today. To play it safe, allow extra time for wiggle room.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actor Lance Reddick (1962) shares your birthday today. You are sharp, observant and vigilant. You work hard. You’re a good judge of character and easy-going with others. Personally, you have strong spiritual values. This year is the first year of a new, nine-year cycle for you. Many opportunities will come your way. Be courageous, open-minded and ready to open any door!

NGC 6188: Dragons of Ara

Image Credit & Copyright: Shaun Robertson

Explanation: Do dragons fight on the altar of the sky? Although it might appear that way, these dragons are illusions made of thin gas and dust. The emission nebula NGC 6188, home to the glowing clouds, is found about 4,000 light years away near the edge of a large molecular cloud unseen at visible wavelengths, in the southern constellation Ara (the Altar). Massive, young stars of the embedded Ara OB1 association were formed in that region only a few million years ago, sculpting the dark shapes and powering the nebular glow with stellar winds and intense ultraviolet radiation. The recent star formation itself was likely triggered by winds and supernova explosions, from previous generations of massive stars, that swept up and compressed the molecular gas. Joining NGC 6188 on this cosmic canvas, visible toward the lower right, is rare emission nebula NGC 6164, also created by one of the region’s massive O-type stars. Similar in appearance to many planetary nebulae, NGC 6164’s striking, symmetric gaseous shroud and faint halo surround its bright central star near the bottom edge. This impressively wide field of view spans over 2 degrees (four full Moons), corresponding to over 150 light years at the estimated distance of NGC 6188.

Milky Way Galaxy Doomed: Collision with Andromeda Pending

Image Credit: NASAESAZ. Levay and R. van der Marel (STScI); T. Hallas; and A. Mellinger

Explanation: Will our Milky Way Galaxy collide one day with its larger neighbor, the Andromeda Galaxy? Most likely, yes. Careful plotting of slight displacements of M31’s stars relative to background galaxies on recent Hubble Space Telescope images indicate that the center of M31 could be on a direct collision course with the center of our home galaxy. Still, the errors in sideways velocity appear sufficiently large to admit a good chance that the central parts of the two galaxies will miss, slightly, but will become close enough for their outer halos to become gravitationally entangled. Once that happens, the two galaxies will become bound, dance around, and eventually merge to become one large elliptical galaxy — over the next few billion years. Pictured here is a combination of images depicting the sky of a world (Earth?) in the distant future when the outer parts of each galaxy begin to collide. The exact future of our Milky Way and the entire surrounding Local Group of Galaxies is likely to remain an active topic of research for years to come.
