This Ezine is published as part of your Premium Membership at Enchanted Spirit to help you make the best use of our site.
It contains current news from the Premium Members Notice Board and notes other items of interest recently added to the site. Enchanted Spirit now contains thousands of pages ... and grows a bit more every day. We figure it may help to have a Tour Guide to point out the highlights.

Technical Matters
We've made some changes on the site to try to address the problem of the "Warning: Page Expired" issue that sometimes causes trouble -- and one other concern that has been reported. The information on this page may aid you in using the Premium Members site.
Please do take a few minutes to read it at your leisure.

Now ... on to the Fun Stuff!! Note: This issue may be unusually long ... 'cause we want to get up-to-date and establish a starting point.

Astrology is about so much more than just your Sun Sign -- the sign the Sun was in when you were born, the sign you undoubtedly know best, the sign you name when someone asks you, "What's your sign?" The Sun travels through all twelve Zodiac signs during the course of the year, and stays in each for about a month. This makes it easy for you to know ... to a reasonable certainty ... what sign the Sun was in when you were born.
From approximately June 20 until July 20 of each year, the Sun is in the sign of Cancer. Cancer energy is devoted to issues of home, family, your private life arrangements, and your emotional foundations. You can learn more about the Sun in Cancer in our annual Happy Birthday, Cancer!! article and the article on The Cancer Character, both available on the site.
If you are a Cancer ... or you have a friend or loved one who is a Cancer and you haven't had a chance to read up on this sensitive, important sign, here's a pair of handy links to use when you get a minute:

Catweasel's Toys
and clicking on the appropriate title.
You can reach this link from the front page of the site or from the Premium Members Notice Board.

If you haven't had a chance to do so yet ... take a moment to visit our unique Oracle ...
The Jewelled Compass LINK DISABLED
Take stock of where you are and set your sights on where you're going.
This little "jewel" has proven to be an uncannily accurate predictor of upcoming trends for those who have used and monitored its advice in the past.
Please note: If you have already visited The Jewelled Compass in the last couple of weeks, it will not work for you again until we reset it -- during Libra.
And note: We will be retiring this Oracle from active service in the next few days -- until she's rested and ready to work again.

As noted on the Premium Members Notice Board:
The Cancer issue of The Enchanted Sprite has been published.
There will be new additions regularly throughout the coming month.
The Leo issue will be published around July 25th.
The theme for the sign of Cancer is, naturally, Home, Family, and Feelings.
Here are some of the most recent notable inclusions.

You're Not Paranoid The House Really Hates You!!
7 Steps to Health and Longevity

FYI ... these links go to the permanent location of the articles on the website ... not to entries in our online Ezine. Therefore, as a Premium Member, you will always be able to find these articles through these links -- even when we reorganize the website -- which we simply have to do periodically to accommodate new growth.

And finally:
Several questions have been submitted to:
The Old Curiosity Stop
I'm going to deal with one of them here ... and the answer will be posted on the website, too.
The question was this:
Any thoughts as to "Can the Baby Boomers of the planet-can they be re-awakened and save the planet"
~*~
As a member of the Baby Boom generation, I see a lot of people about my age becoming more and more environmentally conscious, promoting natural living lifestyles and holistic health practices, and getting involved as never before in political action ventures ... moved by conscience to act on what we believe is necessary to insure the good of the world for future generations. Although the tactics we pursue may not always be "with one voice," I see a definite social consciousness coming alive in the land over the last several years.
Whether this qualifies as re-awakening in order to save the planet, I guess, is still an open question, but at Enchanted Spirit, we have recently published a couple of nice little pieces on ideas you might consider in efforts to "build a better world." One is more environmentally oriented, the other more socially focused. I invite you all to have a look ... or "have another look," if you've seen them before, with the good you might contribute to the future in mind.
Ten Quick Tips to Save the Planet and Your Health
Ten Ways to Add Abundance To Your Mind, Your Life and Your World
I have also read parts of a great series of articles written by a young Hawaiian woman on concerns and solutions for the environment. I emailed her tonight asking if she could make them available again (I only have a sample at the moment) ... and we'll see if she answers. If she does, I'll let you know ... because the messages she compiled on a subject obviously dear to her heart are worth a few minutes reading several times a week.
Finally, if in your internet wanderings any of you come across websites that you think address this issue and do an especially admirable job with their material, let me know. I'll arrange to investigate and maybe start a correspondence with the owner. If you find other articles, hints, or suggestions worth noting, I'll be happy to work with the material to make it available to all ... and if you have ideas of your own to present, those might be especially fertile as food for thought.
To the Premium Member who submitted this question, we thank you for your interest and your topic. I'll keep it in mind as one to harvest in particular when it comes to new material for the site, as it fits very nicely with the theme of a spiritual and holistic New Age lifestyle ... and perhaps together we can awaken our small corner of the Baby Boomer Generation and others to help insure a safe and healthy world for our heirs.
~*~
If you would like to make use of The Old Curiosity Stop for questions, especially ones related to your occult or spiritual studies, you can reach it at the links provided in this article. It's a relatively new feature on the site. We'll see what it grows to become.

That's it for our first issue, folks.
I'll be back with more before long.
Meanwhile, all of us at Enchanted Spirit wish you a safe, productive, and satisfying week ... in all the ways that matter to you.
Rebecca and the Staff at Enchanted Spirit
