Holiday Weekend Fun

The Fourth of July weekend is coming up and it's a semi-long weekend if you get Monday off too. I'm born on the holiday and since holiday birthdays are not ideal for celebrating, I started extending the celebration all week long. I have a few things planned so I am excited to celebrate myself starting today! The kick off is this fun summer drawing - I love love love swimming in lakes! [Little known fact: I have never worn red, white & blue on my birthday so this is the closest I come to it.] Got any great 4th plans? Head on over the my instagram @adriennevita to share it with me.

Summer Solstice

Summer Solstice began late last night at 9:24 pm [PST] and early this morning at 12:24am [EST]. We are going to experience the longest day of sunlight in the year today in the Tropic of Cancer north of the equator. As we move into the zodiac sign of Cancer on the 22nd you'll need to take note of what your emotions are telling you. Cancerian's are the mother of the zodiac, so this will be a month of caring, sharing and great compassion. Take care of yourself, be aware of your emotions and be patient with yourself. On June 23rd we move into a New Moon which is full of energy and ambition - it's a great time to meditate on your dreams and intentions. Summer is my favorite time of year and I endlessly dream of warmer climates and now Portland has finally warmed up. I hope you are feeling summery today - go get your vitamin D and soak up the sun!

Believe in Yourself

Believing in yourself... in some cases in your life, it can be easier said than done. Fully believing in yourself is most of the battle in anything you approach in your life. Believing in yourself is equivalent to adoring yourself - and that is more than ok. Believing in yourself allows you to be a deliberate creator of your experience. You can be, do and have anything you want if you believe it. If you're frustrated with something not becoming a reality yet, just hang on, put yourself in a place of joy in the moment, do your thing, be worthy and what you want will eventually come. If you can, try not thinking about what you want "not" being there because it sucks the joy out of the journey. If you can't get to a place of believing in yourself, don't fret. Make peace with where you are and things will come in as you start to trust. Everything has a way of taking care of itself. Believe in yourself.

Day Off Inspiration

We took a road trip out of the city on our day off on Monday. We are lucky enough here in Portland where you can drive about an hour or so outside of the city and it drops off into wide open plains. I love going to these wide open places because I love how quiet, how open and how still it is. It's a place where you can just be. Where you can enjoy the sounds of nature and see really cool animals like deer, horses, raven, eagles and foxes. There was an old ranch on the trail we hiked and this was yesterday's inspiration from the open plains filled with wildflowers. Sitting on top calling to us were two Ravens. Raven animal totems symbolize magic, healing, creation and the bringer of change. I hope you are feeling inspired today.

Today's Numerology For You

A couple of days ago marked the four year anniversary of this blog. I'm pretty happy I've been going strong writing and drawing weekly, for this long. This blog started out as a combination of readings and illustrations. In honor of that, I wanted to share a little numerology reading for today. The date of today adds up in numerology to total the number 3. This is a great number in numerology. Three is a day of accomplishment and cooperation when it comes to new projects. Problems are handled well and quickly ended. This is a good day for meeting people, travel, and fun.
