AFFIRMATION
Balancing work, play, and relationships is my priority,
MEDITATION
CHANGE IS A COMING—BUT YOUR LIFE CAN MAKE ALL THINGS NEW
As you accept with patience and surrender the difficulties you encounter throughout life on a daily basis, so will you find flowing into you through the Crown Chakra, a light or life-force which will remove all anxiety and pain, making each day a new experience. This comes to each one of us gently, slowly, as we open ourselves from within to the gifts of Spirit. Occasionally you will become aware of a glow within your heart, or of a light feeling, and you will become aware of the harmony which is shaping your life right now through the power of the Divine.
If you direct the right thoughts to those around you, and begin to put the action of the Law of Love in front of any circumstances you may find yourself in, you will find that these troubles and upsets will gradually smooth themselves out. Events will begin to work more harmoniously for you and you will begin to feel, “God is very good to me.” You will begin to realize that within you, as you practice your daily meditations, there is a power building, a feeling of Love, which is helping you actively. This will guide you towards the desired balance of Love, Peace and Harmony within your heart.
This glow within your heart which brings to you such sweet happiness and joy may remain for a few minutes, a few hours, or a few days – and then may disappear. Never fear for slowly this power and gratitude will increase in you. As your life continues, you will experience this renewing energy more often, for you are Ascending up a spiral of light and vibration which will eventually bring you, as a Daughter or Son of God, into the kingdom of eternal light and bliss.

May God grant me Health, Protection and Guidance.
The Sun has entered GEMINI
The transit of the Sun through airy GEMINI brings you face to face with the principle of duality. You can divide the world in half, making contradiction the norm, or expand your mental horizons to synthesize several approaches simultaneously. Choose this latter path during the phase of the Twins. By elevating your intellectual standards of higher knowledge and honest communication, your consciousness taps into new veins of rich ore. Exult in the exploration of reading, writing, short travels and scientific inquiry. By placing an emphasis on wit, good humor, and the potency in your voice and hands, this cycle can sate your curiosity and let the creative genie out of the bottle.
June the month of weddings and graduations. In the United States we have a veritable industry centered on helping people figure out where they are on a scale from passive to assertive to aggressive, and how to move them themselves from one place on that scale to another. A person’s basic temperament is what it’s called at least up to a point, and most of us have our basic strengths and weaknesses. Another human quality that each of us has to work on is something we face most often when we are in love, or at least think we are. Commitment! For some people, saying “I love you” means forever, while for others it might mean for an hour, or a day, or until the “real thing,” whatever that is, comes along.
This is the month we find out about commitment, deceit, lies, betrayal, and the results of our actions. The truth comes out in June, bringing us to a climax and result at the August 25th eclipse.

ANIMAL—The OWL — DECEPTION
Owl, Magic, Omens
Time and space,
Does the Truth emerge?
Casting out deception
In silent flight –
Owl – the sacred medicine bird.
Owl medicine is symbolically associated with clairvoyance, astral projection, and magic, both black and white. Owl is called Night Eagle on several medicine wheels. Traditionally, Owl sits in the East, the place of illumination. Since time immemorial, humanity has been afraid of the night, the dark, the unseen—waiting fearfully for the first crack of dawn, welcoming the morning light. Conversely, night and Owl are our friends.
Owl hunts its prey at night. Not only can Owl see in the dark, but it can also accurately pinpoint and identify any sound. This gives it a great advantage when seeking food. Owls are the night hunters. Some native people are fearful of the Owl and call its feathers “deceiver feathers”. An Owl’s feather is silent. You cannot hear Owl when it flies, but its prey definitely knows when it strikes, for its beak and talons are razor sharp.
Owl is oftentimes the medicine of sorcerers and witches. If Owl has come forth this month of June 2017, you may be drawn into magical practices and perhaps beginning to explore the dark arts. There could be some strange world events, or silent but deadly and unexpected acts of aggression. You should be forewarned never to practice any black arts that may tap into and take away the energies of another person. Owl is the symbol for wisdom. Owl can see what others cannot. When others are deceived, Owl sees and knows what’s there.
Athena, the Greek Goddess of Wisdom, had a companion Owl on her shoulder which revealed secret truths to her. Owl could light up Athena’s blind side, enabling her to speak the whole truth as opposed to a half truth. So know that from now on, no one can deceive you about what they are doing, no matter how they try to disguise or hide it from you.
You may be a little frightening to be around, since so many others have ulterior motives which will be revealed to you. You can see right through them! You may frighten them and reflect their blindness, for you cannot be fooled. Owl medicine people know more about an individual’s inner life than that person knows about themselves.
So—this month we are being asked to use our powers of keen insight and observation to look into some life situation. Owl is befriending you—and aiding you into seeing the truth. Owl can bring you messages in the night through dreams or meditation. Pay attention to these signals and omens. The truth always brings us further enlightenment.
JUNE CRYSTAL — Pearl – Tigereye
PEARL This gift from the sea brings tears to those who receive it. The pearl, as a standard jewelry piece and lovely as it is, reminds us of the oyster and other sea creatures. We have loved many products of nature and have destroyed nature in the process. Pearls are formal, correct and always beautiful.
TIGER EYE A variety of quartz. Beneficial for spleen, pancreas, digestive organs and colon. Emotional behavior and enhances connection with personal power and will. Creates grounding and centering. Helps soften stubbornness. Enhances clear perception and insight. Slightly masculine energy.
RUNE of the Month
KANO–Opening – Fire – Torch
OPENING — renewed clarity – receive higher knowledge
This is the Rune of opening up, of renewed clarity, of dispelling darkness that has been shrouding some part of your life. You are free now to receive, and to know the joy of non-attached giving.
Kano is the Rune of the morning of activities, of seriousness, clarity and concentration, all of which are essential at the beginning of work. The protection offered by this Rune is that the more light you have, the more you practice your spiritual meditations, the better you can see what is trivial and outmoded in your personal life, stemming from your childhood pre-conditioning.
In relationships, there can be a mutual opening up. You may serve as the trigger, the timekeeper, through your awareness, that the light of understanding is once again available to you both.
Recognize that, while on the one hand you are limited and dependent, on the other you exist at the perfect center where the harmonious and beneficent forces of the universe merge and radiate. You are that center. Simply put, if you have been operating in the dark, there is now enough light to see that the patient on the operating table is yourself!
In this time of the Gemini energies 2017 – one can expect a darkening of the light in some situation or relationship. A friendship may be dying, a partnership or marriage, some aspect of yourself or your work, an old way of being needs to be let go of, because it is no longer proper or valid for you. You are being asked to recognize that failure for you to face up to this death consciously would constitute a loss of opportunity. Kano is one of the Cycle Runes, and it can point to an inner death of a way of living, because it has been now invalidated through your personal spiritual growth.
So be prepared and willing to give up gladly the old, and to live for a while feeling empty. Spirit cannot enter a vessel that is full and running over. Wait! Have patience! Develop your inner stability, not allowing yourself to be seduced by the momentum of old ways, but instead, wait for the new. Know in your heart at all times that the NEW will become illuminated in its proper time.
Don’t be afraid to make the leap or take the chance.

THE PERSONAL SIGNS
June puts the focus on family matters, and you could add a new person to your household; a new mate, baby, or relative. Don’t be too picky as people try to please you and give you exactly what you want.
June brings adventure and lot’s of fun, too. You weed out some relationships that no longer belong in your life, but your tried and true friends are supportive and at your side.
Gemini (5/21-6/20)
In June, don’t let frustrations on the job force you into making a poor decision. Just take a deep breath. You may need to take a step back from your lover to handle some family issues. Think twice before you extend help or bail them out again, Gemini.
Cancer (6/21-7/22)
June helps you whittle down a bit in the romance department. Someone you have your eye on turns out to be delightful. You are smitten. Love and possessions become center stage. Don’t allow yourself to become too overly attached.
Leo (7/23-8/22)
June brings so many social invitation that it’s impossible to accept them all. However, someone special is depending on you. Be sure to make the effort to get the important things done. You won’t settle for anything less than what you think you deserve, If your efforts aren’t working out, you won’t want to stick around. Chances are things will lighten up a bit. Try giving a pat on the back.
Virgo (8/23-9/22)
In June, if you’re in a new relationship, you two may not want to be interrupted. How about a long, leisurely weekend at the beach? An argument over finances is possible mid month over decisions you made that, at the time, you were sure were the right ones. Don’t allow anyone to shake you.
Libra (9/23-10/22)
There’ll be lots of conversations going on about relationships in June. Someone who’s been trying to hit you for a loan may turn up the volume and irritate you mid-month. Stay calm. You’re stretching and growing no, so anyone you’re bored with will get a dismissal this month.
Scorpio (10/ 23-11/22)
June brings a desire to kick back and enjoy yourself. Just don’t get too comfy. There’s still lots of work to be done. You get an invite to a far off social event at month’s end. Should you go, or just send your best wishes?
Sagittarius (11/23-12/21)
June puts travel and education on the agenda. If you intend to take a close relationship to the next level, June is the time. Joint finances and shared resources are handled this month, Sag. Get bust at work, because it time for recognition. Be sure to make a good first impression.
Capricorn (12/22-1/19)
Don’t expect to get any rest in June. You’re having such a good time that chugging down that second cup of coffee to gain a second wind isn’t too difficult. Time to take a break at month’s end. Make some popcorn, pull on some snuggly’s, and revel in the comfort of your home and loved ones.
Aquarius (1/20-2/18)
June brings more fun and a chance to go where you haven’t been before. You don’t want to stay at home anyway. Money issues may become confusing at month’s end. Call on that trusted elder to guide you.
