Blessing Yourself and ALL Life
One way to work with these powerful celestial energies is to create (or step up) a practice that helps you raise your personal vibration by whatever means works for you! One of my favorite ways is to practice gratitude for ALL the Blessings of my life as a way to celebrate all the gifts I have been given.
Celebrating your Blessings with gratitude is a powerful way to raise your personal vibration as well as the vibration of all those you encounter including the Earth.
So what is a blessing exactly?
The dictionary defines blessing as:
- the act of invoking divine protection or aid
- the words used in prayer or ceremony to invite or invoke the state of being blessed or blessing others
- a short prayer of thanksgiving before or after a meal; also known as saying grace
- a short prayer prescribed for a specific occasion or dedication of something like a wedding, or building, or project
- approval; good wishes: as in parents giving their blessing to a field of study or vocation or a marriage
- the bestowal of a divine gift or favor
- a happy event or state of affairs such as being blessed by the birth of child or some other good fortune
Blessings come in many forms and all kinds of ways, some we recognize right away and some take longer to notice or fully understand. Traumatic events are often described as a blessing in disguise. It may take years to see what the gift or blessing is. Even the most challenging events can be the biggest blessings when we are willing to shift and expand our point of view.
Giving and Receiving Blessings
Probably one of the greatest things about blessings is we can choose to give and receive blessings on a daily basis. One of the best ways to practice receiving blessings is to give them, because when we intentionally send a blessing we align ourselves to channel the blessing energy from divine source making it easier to also receive them. The more we connect with this inner divine source the more our lives our blessed.
There is no real right or wrong way to send blessings to ourselves or to others. The main ingredient needed is a pure heart-felt intention and a willingness to channel the energy of blessings directly from the pure love and pure source of the divine within each and everyone of us.
Focusing your intent on sending blessings is a way to further activate your connection to your divine higher self. This raises your vibration and in turn attracts high vibration blessings into your own life. In some ways this is similar to the energy of being grateful and appreciative. Gratitude, Appreciation, and Blessings are all HIGH vibration experiences and are great attractors for more things to be grateful for and to appreciate – further expanding the blessings and sense of being blessed.
Sending a Blessing to Yourself
One way to send (or give) a blessing to yourself is to take a moment to imagine you are connected to your Higher Self or the Pure Divine Loving Source within you. Then see and/or feel this divine source energy filled with loving blessings flowing to you, or showering you, with a steady stream of light. See and feel these blessings of pure love and light entering your body and filling every cell until you are so filled with this blessed energy it begins flowing from you into the world. Imagine this loving light is blessing you and empowering you with everything you need to experience joyous, magical, miraculous fulfillment of your divine design and life purpose.
This is a great practice to do as you are falling asleep at night and/or when waking up in the morning. If the last thing we are thinking about before sleeping and the first thing we are thinking about upon waking up it is a powerful way to activate your own high vibration as well as sending high vibrational blessings to those you care about.
So in honor of the gifts that blessings bestow, I send you all my heart-felt blessings for a magical month filled with beauty, truth, fun, and great success in all you do! This is the blessing I send daily to all I am connected with personally and virtually as I am so grateful you are sharing this remarkable time and journey with me.
Stars worth noting in the June Night Sky
This month the Milky Way is seen lying flat around the horizon so not clearly visible unless you look up to the Northeast highest part in Cygnus the Swan. However this position of the Milky Way gives us the sense of the Plane of the Galaxy when looking Northeast toward Cygnus Galactic Center is to your right.
Last month the Milky Way was lying flat around the horizon so it was barely visible. The Summer Triangle is prominent now with the fixed star Deneb, the tail of Cygnus the Swan in the path of the Milky Way. Cygnus points toward the direction our Galaxy is moving. Vega, in the constellation of Lyra and was the pole star 13,000 years ago.
This is an ideal time to go out and look up at the Summer Triangle and open to receive downloads and insights from these prominent stars.
What are you seeing? Hearing? Sensing?
How are these stars guiding you toward your divine destiny?
Altair marks the eagle’s eye and currently is at 1 Aquarius attuning to the BIG picture.
Vega is where Jody Foster goes in the movie Contact and as the brightest star in the constellation of Lyra seems to have links to the vibrational power of sound.
Deneb is the tail of the swan but also looks like the hilt of the sword – perhaps the sword of truth? The idea is to find out what it means for you and not necessarily what you have been told it is. This is about opening to receive your own guidance and inspiration from these and all the stars in the our night sky.
Also prominent this month is the constellation of the Virgin Priestess (a.k.a. Virgo) containing seven main stars. The most visible star in this group is the bright bluish white star Spica, meaning “spike of grain.” Higher in the sky and a bit to the right of Spica is the star Denebola which forms the lion’s tail in the constellation also known as Leo.
These three stars Arcturus, Denebola, and Spica form the Spring Triangle best viewed from April to June (see image to the right).
Plus, we have the perfect 30-60-90 degree triangle formed by Arcturus, Spica and Regulus (the heart of the lion). Look East/Southeast to spot both triangles.
There are sacred sites around the world that are aligned with certain stars. The Washington, D.C. capitol is one (it is primarily aligned with Sirius), as is Rennes-le-Chateau, in France, and many other sites around the world.
The location of Rennes-le-Chateau corresponds to the 72-degree position of the Sun rise from true North that takes place on August 15 as described by John K. Young, Ph.D. in his book, Sacred Sites of the Knights Templar, Ancient Secrets Hidden in Stonehenge, Rennes-le-Chateau and Santiago De Compostela.
Because Rennes-le-Chateau is at the perfect latitude to capture the sunrise line pointing to the Stellar Triangle,* and to align with at least five other sites at 72 degree angles, as part of perfectly formed, five-pointed star with each point exactly 72 degrees apart from each other; this site was purposely chosen as a sacred connection between Earth and Sky.
*A note about The Stellar Triangle: In his book, Young further points out that Regulus forms a perfect 30-60-90 degree right triangle with Spica (in the constellation of the Virgin Priestess) and Arcturus (in the constellation of Bootes). Young suggests that the Feast Day of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary was most likely chosen because of the stellar connection of Regulus with Spica and Arcturus, and its connection to the Sun rise location of 72 degrees North at certain northern latitudes occurring around August 15.
Arcturus and Spica are two stars linked together zodiacally at 22 Libra. These two stars are powerful symbols of the Sacred Feminine and the Sacred Masculine. The Tarot Cards depict the constellation of the Virgin Priestess holding the Scales of Justice in her hand. In the tarot cards where the Goddess of Justice is holding the scales is symbolically where Spica is located in the sky, just above the constellation of The Scales. Arcturus is the fourth brightest star in our sky and is located in the constellation of Bootes, the Herdsman (where the meteor shower is this month), and has associations as the faithful guardian, protector, and companion of the Goddess.
This describes how the masculine and feminine principles are different in their expression; but they play equally valid and important roles in the grand scheme of life.
Orion is the High Man (Maybe High Woman?)
Orion is seen as the High Man from a Celtic Perspective and was considered a way to know when ages were changing by that and other cultures.
The Sun and Jupiter on the hand of the High Man at this 2025 June Solstice we know the new Galactic Year is beging energized especially as we consciously engage our own intentional practice.
When we consider the Sun is illuminating the starry light codes on the Galactic Cross at the Galactic Edge within and beyond beyond our galaxy we begin to get a sense of how profound this is.
The brightest fixed star in the constellation of Orion (the High Man) is Betelgeuse – meaning “the armpit of the central one”. Orion is also referred to as the High Man by the Celts and in some depictions is seen reaching his hand to the Galactic Cross at the Galactic Edge where the June Solstice Sun Rises. This currently means the Sun at the June Solstice is on the Hand of the High Man.
The Sun is conjunct Betelgeuze on June 18, a giant red star marking the right shoulder of Orion, the Hunter; and part of the winter triangle including Sirius and Procyon, known in some cultures as Heaven’s Gate or the entry point into this dimension of experience.
Ancient India connected this star to the Vedic storm-god Rudra, who was a form of Shiva, the transformer through destruction and re-creation. This star currently located near the June Solstice, is drawing upon its transformative abilities to assist in this Turning of the Ages renovation of our earthly experience.
Betelgeuse was thought to be a star that encouraged the pursuit of perfection and high level achievement. In these transforming times, the standards or ideals of perfection are not what they once were, as our understanding and perspective changes. Worldly perfection and accomplishment does not necessarily create inner peace and joy and often has quite the opposite effect. When the focus shifts to accepting the inner perfection we already possess then our external world experience shifts.
Meteor Showers
June 22-July 07 with peak around 9 pm on June 26 is the Bootids Meteor Shower
Look to constellation Bootes where Arcturus is located. This one is known for very slow meteors. The June Bootid meteor shower will be active from 22 June to 2 July, reaching its peak rate of meteors around June 26/27.
From 32° North Latitude where I live the radiant of this meteor shower is above the horizon all night, meaning most any time of the night is a good time to see meteors. The radiant is at its highest point around 9 pm so technically a good time to see the most meteors maximizing the visible number of meteors that appear to “rain” vertically downwards, producing short trails close to the radiant point. Over the course of the night there are fewer meteors burning up over up in the sky as they enter the atmosphere at an oblique angle, producing long-lived meteors that may traverse a wide area of the sky before vanishing.
It is interesting to note June 27th, 1998, northern sky watchers were blessed to see around 100 meteors per hour for about 7 hours – suddenly streaming out of the constellation Bootes. Similar displays from Bootes were recorded in 1916, 1921 and 1927.
The source of the June Bootids is comet 7P/Pons-Winnecke – orbiting the Sun once every 6.37 years. The comet has an elliptical path so sometimes closer to the Earth and other times further away. Pons-Winnecke last visited the inner solar system in 2002. Each year the Earth passes through a dense spot in the debris stream, creating a meteor shower that is sometimes more spectacular to see than others.

Everybody has to look at his or her own footprint and do the best they can. It’s not about being perfect, it’s about doing something. If we’re looking for perfection, we’ll never, ever get there. ~ Laurie David
