Thursday August 11 Super Full Moon
in Aquarius

Picture
Since June, we have been working with a lineup of three Super Full Moons, and now we arrive at the third and final Super Full Moon of the year on August 11.
Reaching this point on our journey may bring a feeling of culmination or closure. If you can identify something that was stirring for you back in June, you may find now that in August, you are reaching the end point of this journey or are at a point where a decision needs to be made.
Full Moons, but especially Super Full Moons, are always bringing to our attention what needs to be released from our lives. They bring our awareness to all that must be stripped away to keep us evolving and moving higher on our path.
August’s Full Moon falls in the air sign of Aquarius, the sign of the water bearer. The water bearer is a symbol of healing and transmutation. It has the gift of collecting “water”- the emotional, psychic energy of the world around us, in its vessel and clearing it using the power of the breath before returning it to the Earth.
As Aquarian energy will beam strong under this Full Moon, we can use it to connect with the gift of the water-bearer. We can use the power of our breath to transform dense, heavy, negative, or grief-stricken energies around us into something lighter, hopeful, and more loving.
Allow compassion to radiate from your heart during this time. Allow the August Full Moon to keep you feeling full and your heart overflowing with the love you have received and will continue to receive.
As the last Super Moon of the year, the August Full Moon may also bring us closure or guide us to finally reach a decision point on our journey. We may now know exactly which way we need to turn. We may now know which way we need to travel in order to reach our chosen destination.
Saturn, the Lord of Karma is very active under this Full Moon. Whenever Saturn is active, it can press on us to take greater responsibility for our actions and to ensure we are moving in accordance with our higher self.
If any actions you are taking are not in alignment with your soul, or if you are forgoing some of your responsibilities, this Full Moon may bring this information into your awareness.

Thank you !!
We are asking for love donations at this time during our online church services to support our work and to allow us to continue through these troubling times.  We are not meeting in person so can't pass around  the offering plate to help us with ongoing operating expenses that need to be paid:  partial rent, full insurance, Zoom fees, payment to the national organization, to name a few.

SCOL NEWS
===============================================
Moving to Two In-Person SCOL Services in September: Our church is planning to begin having two in-person/hybrid services at UUFSB starting in September. We are looking at September 3 and 17 at 10:30 am.  If we have enough people attending these two services, we will continue to have two in-person/hybrid services for the months that follow. At this point, we are not requiring you to wear a mask but you may certainly do so. (Health protocols may change due to changing NY state and UUFSB mandates.) The room for our services in the Religious Education wing has two portable air-purifying systems that will be used during the time we are there.
We require a minimum of four people to attend (not counting the platform workers and helpers). Please let us know if you can commit to coming, and how often, to our in-person/hybrid services. Also, we are looking for more people to serve at our in-person/hybrid services.  If you have an interest in offering a Spiritual Address, offering a guided meditation, or being a greeter, please let us know in an email. Please email our church with your reply or for any questions you may have.

Spiritual Healing Requests
===============================================

Spirit healings result from law-governed forces being put into operation following the sending forth of a thought directive (prayer). Spirit guides and doctors will diagnose the trouble and its cause, attention being directed to overcoming the cause, and then removing the symptoms.
Please set time aside each day to send healing thoughts for each of those listed below, that they may receive from Spirit that which is for their highest and best needs.  Your healing prayers are needed and benefit others in ways we may never know.
To request that a name or situation be placed on this healing list, please send a
note to 
[email protected]


Prayer for Spiritual Healing
I ask the Great Unseen Healing Force
To remove all obstructions 

From my mind and body 
And to restore me to perfect health.
I ask this in all sincerity and honesty
And I will do my part.

I ask this Great Unseen Healing Force
To help both present and absent ones
Who are in need of help
And to restore them to perfect health.
I put my trust 
and love in the power of God.
