The Sky Picture - June 2020

ADL blog-Astrology Update-The Sky Picture_2020_06

By Rev. Linda Bender

The Sun is in Gemini through the 20th. Gemini is a mutable air sign and very sociable. Gemini’s ruling planet is Mercury which symbolizes communication; Gemini’s are very verbal people. They usually “talk with their hands.” They can be very scattered as their minds are darting in all directions and they can become easily bored. They can be very mercurial and they are the mediators.

The Full Moon is June 5th in Sagi…

I Am Your Mother

ADL Blog - I Am your Mother_Brian Crissey

By Rev. Brian Crissey

I am your Mother.

You are but fetuses in my womb.

Yet so many of you believe you can destroy your surroundings without injuring yourselves.

Mine is the cold breath of the north
that bursts your pipes
and sends a chill of recognition down your spine.

Mine is the pristine blanket of snow
that caves in y…

Too many Americans hold down several part-time jobs just to make ends meet, and then they come home exhausted. Then 2020 arrives with all of …

Breath of a Death Doula

Breath of a Death Doula

My nature as a death doula is to provide comfort for the dying: comfort of mind, emotion, spirit, body, and breath. These are grievous times AND profound pathways for my ilk. Bearing witness from a distance, we encounter the sea of people across the globe, dying without family, friends or doulas by their side; alone without their loved ones. We are naturally inclined and trained for holding pure space, cradling bodies, synchronizing peace…
