ROSEMARY’S EXPLORATION: Learn Something New Today!
Where do you go for information? Or are you not curious about learning something new?
I sometimes lament the fact that I don’t have enough life left in which to learn and to master all that I want to learn and master. So many books to read! (My preferred way to learn and explore) There are classes to take, webinars to join, documentaries to watch, people to meet and talk with, topics to research.
And where can I get information that I trust?
I have discovered that there is a lot of wisdom to be gained through meditation. My guides give me lots of answers. They also lead me to sources where answers can be found. I trust their guidance.
Trust is key. Do you trust your sources? Do you trust your inner guidance? Or do you place your trust in one source other than yourself and choose not to do further research on your own?
There is nothing wrong with having a trusted source of information. I wouldn’t be teaching classes, whether on dowsing or hypnosis or essential oils, if I didn’t believe in what I am sharing. And, yet, I invite students to explore topics on their own. Do research. Compare different sources. Read a bunch of books on a topic. Talk to people you trust about their views/experiences/knowledge.
And check inside to see how you feel about what you are encountering. Does it resonate for you? Another person’s truth may not be truth for you.
This is especially true in the realm of spirituality. What someone else believes may be truth for them at that moment but it might not fit for you. Have you changed your beliefs in your lifetime?
Of course you have! Didn’t you, at one time, think the Tooth Fairy came and exchanged money for a tooth under your pillow? And didn’t Santa Claus bring your toys at Christmas?
What about that belief that you couldn’t do something? Until you tried it and succeeded?
And how about that belief that ‘nobody likes me’ that we all felt at some point, as a child or even in adulthood. Well, I like you now!
What we believe can change. What we know today can be modified with the next moment’s input.
You are never too old to learn something new – about life, about the world, about yourself. Are you exploring? Are you curious? Are you asking questions?
When I worked on the Hubble Space Telescope we had to be open to what was revealed to us. Many theories were confirmed. Others were contradicted. We continue to learn about the Cosmos from the discoveries that our space exploration is bringing to us.
NASA has just released pictures of Pluto from close up, after almost a decade of traveling to get those pictures. What will be revealed? How exciting it is that something new is coming to us to learn!
In personal life, what we don’t know we don’t know can trip us up! If you think you know everything you need to know, you will stop growing, stop evolving. Keep asking questions. Keep exploring yourself and the world around you.
Learn something new TODAY!

ROSEMARY’S NEW MOON NEWS
Happy New Moon in Cancer!
Today’s NASA picture comes all the way from Pluto and the New Horizons Spacecraft.
Emerge
Iceberg
Submerged.
Waiting in silence,
Keeping ships
At a distance.
Old moon
Submerged.
Melting to nothing,
Lighting no path
For homecoming.
Shadow
Submerged.
Covering up proof,
Offering the lies
As if Truth.
The Light
Lets all emerge.
Lifting the shadow,
Lighting new moon,
Melting the ice.

How exciting that we are getting pictures of Pluto from close up? Wow! As we learned with the Hubble Space Telescope, what we can see from Earth can be distorted by the atmosphere. But having a spacecraft camera travel that far to take a close up shot is very exciting. What will we learn?
Yesterday’s New Moon in Cancer happened at 9:26 pm Eastern Daylight Time. This means that the Sun and Moon are together in the sign of Cancer and the Earth’s shadow covers the Moon so that it does not reflect Sun’s light. The Dark of the Moon is a special time of potency. We, on Earth, are receiving pure Moon energy – feminine, nurturing, emotional.
We are invited to ask ourselves ‘What feeds my soul?’ Look at your values and how they are being demonstrated by how you spend your time. Do you need to do some adjusting in your priorities, in your schedule?
In addition, Mercury, Mars, Uranus and Pluto are playing together in the second half of July to give us a chance to make the visions of the 60s about peace, equality and the environment become grounded in the 21st Century. What can you do?
Remember that the New Moon is the time to invite something NEW into your life. What are you ready to welcome? Maybe it’s time to get rid of limiting beliefs and think new thoughts. As always, Rosemary is available to help you figure out that next step beyond the blocks that hold you stuck. Email her for more info on private sessions:rosemary@thescientificmystic.com
This is a special month for our family! We have two grandchildren having birthdays, Makayla (18) and Tristan (1). What a joy grandchildren are! And we get to celebrate with both of them! And on July 22nd Rosemary & I celebrate our 32nd Wedding Anniversary. We will celebrate all of these special days!
Essential Oils Class: FREE online class on Thursday, July 16 at 3:00 pm Eastern Daylight Time. Kiyla Fenell will be joining us from Tulsa, OK to teach about using Essential Oils in your daily wellness regimen. We’ll be sharing story after story of ways people are benefiting from using Essential Oils and how you, too, can replace your medicine cabinet with natural plant medicine. More details here and the link to register (a recording will be available but you must register to receive it):www.thescientificmystic.com/essentialoils
Sneak Peek: This Fall we will be offering a free telesummit, exploring with successful entrepreneurs the spiritual practices that keep them centered and balanced. Stay tuned for more info!

ROSEMARY’S EXPLORATION: Evolve Your Consciousness and Lift Others Up
The consciousness of humankind is dependent upon the evolutionary progress of the majority of the humans on Earth at any given time. Highly evolved individuals can lift the consciousness of many others but the others must choose to be lifted up.
Those who choose not to evolve can often influence many others by weighing down the thinking of the group in which they find themselves.
Each individual has a responsibility for the consciousness level of every group in which they participate. Social, work, family, spiritual, religious. It is not possible to participate in a group without affecting or being affected by the consciousness level of that group.
For example, one cannot sit idly by while someone in a group speaks disparagingly about others without being dragged down to the dense vibration of that thought. Similarly, one cannot help but be lifted up when someone of higher consciousness speaks in or to a group.
If you are the one speaking, you can lift up a group or you can bring it down with your words and the thoughts you convey.
If you think that you can be a silent bystander in a group, then you are mistaken. If you sit quietly in a group that spouts thoughts of hatred you have 2 choices – you can speak up against that hatred and risk all that goes with speaking out or you can leave the group. Sitting silently implies agreement and brings you to the level of consciousness associated with hatred.
You are always at choice. Do you think that you can be associated with a group and not participate in the ideas that group espouses? You have just given away your power.
Pay attention to the ideas expressed within any group you choose to join. Pay attention to the ideas expressed within your family. Make your position known and invite others to be uplifted. Avoid discussions of hatred and negative speaking about others. Refuse to be engaged in arguments of topics that are low vibration.
Your mother said, “Tell me who you go with and I’ll tell you what you are.” This is true. With whom do you choose to spend your time? If they do not represent who you are becoming then it may be time to step away.
Take charge of your vibrations. Keep lifting yourself up to higher consciousness. Refuse to allow others to drag you down.
PS: We are approaching the New Moon in Cancer Wednesday, July 15 at 9:29 pm Eastern time. We’ll be publishing a new MoonLetter to celebrate. If you would like to receive these messages, posted later in this blog, the day they are published in Rosemary’s newsletter you can subscribe here: Subscription Link. When you do you will also receive a soothing 7-minute meditation to help you through these stressful times.

ROSEMARY’S NEWS FOR THE FULL MOON IN CAPRICORN
Happy Full Moon in Capricorn!
Today’s Hubble picture is a recent one of the Pillars of Creation. Stars are being born deep inside the pillars, a small part of the Eagle Nebula, a vast star-forming region 6,500 light-years from Earth.
Rhythms
Full moon rising,
Climbing as a goat
Up the mountain of the sky
Riding high, beaming Sunrays
Back to Earth, light for the Dark Way.
Half-year passing,
Fading as a flower.
Ripening fruit-time in full force
Nourishing Earth energy pushing
Life to feed the seed to feed life.
Old man rejoicing,
Vigorous as a stoat,
Living the dream, dreaming life
Back into fading years
Shedding no tears, full force rising!

This Full Moon at 09 degrees Capricorn, opposite the Sun at 09 degrees Cancer, invites us to look at what we expressed as our desires at the last New Moon (June 16) and release any remaining blocks to manifesting those desires. The Full Moon happened at 10:22 pm Eastern Daylight Time on Wednesday, July 1, and ushered in the time to determine what to let go of as we get down to work for the next two weeks.
How are you taking care of yourself? (Cancer) What are your tasks, your REAL work, your objectives? (Capricorn) Do your assessment as you also pay attention to the fact that everyone around you will be experiencing the effects of this Full Moon, knowing about it or ignorant of it. Drive defensively!
The Sun is dancing with several other planets in the period between this Full Moon and the next New Moon on July 15, making early July a good time to look for the areas where big change is needed in your life. Are you ready?
If you are wondering how this Summer is asking you to change, then schedule a reading where we can explore your next step. Send me an email at rosemary@TheScientificMystic.com for details. Isn’t it time that you got everything out of the way of your Living Your Richest Life?
And look up at the sky! The Moon, Venus and Jupiter have been playing nicely together. It is a wonder of lights to behold!

A FULL MOON POEM: Rhythms
Here on the East Coast there is a full moon in Capricorn tonight at 10:22. As some of you dear readers know, Rosemary and I celebrate the cycles of the moon, paying special attention to this nearest “heavenly body” as she moves through her phases affecting the planet and all of life in so many ways. We’ll be publishing the MoonLetter later today (subscribe here) but in the meantime, to lead up to this “big moon” I want to share my poem for the day (and her):
Rhythms
Full moon rising,
Climbing as a goat

Nourishing Earth energy pushing
Life to feed the seed to feed life.

A Friday Poem: It’s All Just Lies
Yesterday’s post from Rosemary’s Exploration was all about truth and Truth. It seems as soon as we find a truth for our lives we discover a hollowness to it that we then seek to grow beyond, to find a new truth to stand on. And then a shift occurs and we are seeking again.
In pondering this seeking through layers of “truth” today’s poem “wrote itself” out of my musings:
It’s All Just Lies
The stories we tell ourselves?
We make them all up!
What if I told you your stories are crap?
We make it all up.
It’s all just lies!
The illness, the stress, the difficult life?
We make them all up!
The suffering, meltdowns, tales of strife?
We make it all up.
It’s all just lies!
The happy places, the glade, the glen?
We make them all up!
This life, that death, new birth and growth?
We make it all up.
It’s all just lies!
The Qi, the flow, yin and yang?
We make them all up!
Even the Dao, the ground of all being?
We make it all up.
It’s all just lies!
So, where is the truth, what is real?
Keep looking my friend;
Believe nothing you feel!

ROSEMARY’S INSPIRATION: New Moon – New Light!
Are you seeing that beautiful Moon, Venus, Jupiter alignment as the waxing Moon sets to the west these evenings? Watch for the “New Lights” and enjoy the high light of summer!

NEW MOON NEWS FROM ROSEMARY
Greetings; and Happy New Moon in Gemini!
“Be still and look inside for the answers. Trust that you have an Inner Wisdom that speaks your truth to you.”
Make things happen now, while the Moon is growing in the night sky from dark to Full. Think new thoughts. Believe new ideas. Find new ways to listen, to communicate.
Use the Gemini energy to improve communications. Mercury is now moving in a direct pattern – we survived another dreaded retrograde period! Woo Hoo! Focus on the listening side of communicating while you observe yourself – are you getting the response you want or are your communications creating something different? Take responsibility for communicating authentically while allowing others to be valued and appreciated for their authentic selves.
The Summer Solstice is coming up on June 21 – the longest day of the year for us in the northern hemisphere. The most Light of the year! What new Light can you shine into the world this week?
Someone recently asked how to convince someone else that it is important to pay attention to the Moon. What do you think? Does it matter? My answer is that we are mostly water and the Moon visibly affects the waters of the Chesapeake Bay so why shouldn’t we be affected by the same energy that brings in a super high tide?
I’ve also talked to folks who work in Emergency Rooms and they KNOW, with great certainty, that the Moon affects people because they can track it in the emergencies that they see.
Knowledge is Power. To live a Conscious Life means to be conscious of what is going on around you. Noticing the Moon and her cycles is a part of that knowledge.
PS: The Hubble image is of NGC 6503, a Spiral Galaxy “Lost in Space.” From the Hubble Site: “…this galaxy, known as NGC 6503, has found itself in a lonely position, at the edge of a strangely empty patch of space called the Local Void. The Local Void is a huge stretch of space that is at least 150 million light-years across.”
