Tarot by Jacqueline | Newsletter August 2021 – Where Did Summer Go?
Greetings! The heat of the late Summer had me in a very lazy mood. Each day the Sun rose and quickly spread its heat over the mid-morning, so much so I was drinking my coffee at 5:30 iced. I would hide in the darker (and cooler) parts of the house from 12 to 6, only to emerge to pick a tomato or two from my plants and toss it into the nightly salad that I would make, as cooking was verboten. I decided to forego the newsletter for August, hoping that cooler days would prod me into writing again. Summer is...

Despite the many years I have been on this Earth, this is one of the most prevalent sayings that rings true in my life. When Mama would say this as I was standing in the middle of the work area where all physical movement from counter to refrigerator to stove would occur, it was an indication to M-O-V-E and wait in another less populated area of the kitchen, maybe even the dining room.

(The Preamble to the Declaration of Independence) The holiday that we celebrate with parades, picnics, barbecues and fireworks, was a hard fought battle for our freedom.

Greetings! June is here and the end of this month will indicate that we have completed one-half of 2021. What have you accomplished since New Year’s Day? Certain markers are naturally placed in the World so that we take a pause and reflect on what we have done and what is still needed to do. The plants, which were just budding a mere 6 weeks ago, are in full bloom, and Nature is reminding us that Fall will be here in 3 months, and the changes we will be going through once again to ready ourselves for...
