Frank Kotowski. SKILLS Hi, everyone. For our Mediumship Class on Thursday, May 28, at 7:30 pm on Zoom, we will be working with the idea of skills: What skills did our ancestors possess and which ones do we possess? We are all unique in expressing our creativity and knowledge to the world. Why is this important? • Please email Frank by 2 pm on Thursday or sooner for the Zoom link and to let him know you are coming: [email protected] • The cost for this class is $12.00. If this amount is not within your budget, please email Frank at the address above. If you are less than 18 years of age, you must send approval from a parent or guardian in writing the morning of this class. Please pay on our website at this link: https://www.summerlandchurchoflight.org/payments--donations.html#MedDevGroup This group is for anyone interested in the world of Spirit and is open to both SCOL members and non members. Weekly we will lead attendees in a Meditation, followed by group exercises, enabling a better understanding of the world of Spirit.

Its place in our heavenly skies has long been considered sacred by many ancient cultures around the world. Aldebaran is said to bring fortune, bravery, success, and stamina. Its energy is likened to a guardian angel, watching out and protecting those who bathe in its energy. Aldebaran is also said to awaken and sharpen the mind. It activates our third eye chakra, allowing us to grow in intelligence and raise our consciousness to new heights. Aldebaran is considered the star of enlightenment and allows us to download new and inspired ideas from the Universe straight into our minds.

Please note: The Discussion Circle “What benefits do you receive from being a Spiritualist?” previously scheduled for May 30 has been moved to July 11. We are asking for donations at this time during our online and hybrid church services to support our work and to allow us to continue through these troubling times. We are meeting less often in person so we have less opportunity to collect donations in person 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. Thank you for your generosity, many blessings. https://www.summerlandchurchoflight.org/payments--donations.html#ServiceDonation Scroll to Church Service offering'. -------------------------------------- Sunday May 31 Full Blue Moon in Saggittarius On May 31st, we experience a rare Blue Moon! We have all heard the saying “once in a blue moon” so it seems like a fitting opportunity to use the energy of this Full Moon to do something rare, special, and out of the ordinary! When we have two Full Moons in the same calendar month, it can also act as a cosmic signal that it is time to release old, outdated paradigms. We are being called to let go. Set an intention to release all that is no longer yours to carry. Bring closure to situations that have stagnated, expired, or quietly completed their purpose. Full Moons act like magnets, drawing emotions, truths, and heaviness up to the surface so they can finally be cleared away. Allow the magnetic pull of this Blue Moon to help lift what has been weighing on your heart.

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. Ebony and family Danielle S. Dolores M Loralei S Theresa F. and family Mary C. Linda and Larry B.

May 28-31 The Silver Gate Portal: The Sun Conjunct Aldebaran Aldebaran is known as one of the Four Royal Stars. Its place in our heavenly skies has long been considered sacred by many ancient cultures around the world. Aldebaran is said to bring fortune, bravery, success, and stamina. Its energy is likened to a guardian angel, watching out and protecting those who bathe in its energy. Aldebaran is also said to awaken and sharpen the mind. It activates our third eye chakra, allowing us to grow in intelligence and raise our consciousness to new heights. Aldebaran is considered the star of enlightenment and allows us to download new and inspired ideas from the Universe straight into our minds. According to some astrologers, Aldebaran is also believed to be the home of the Silver Gate Portal, which is the entrance point for souls traveling to or reincarnating back to Earth. As the souls travel through the Silver Gate Portal, they are bathed in the protective light of Aldebaran before making their way into their new reincarnation. From May 28-31 each year, the Sun crosses Aldebaran, activating its energy and making it more easily accessible to each and every one of us. We can use the energy of Aldebaran to sharpen our minds, accelerate our path to enlightenment, boost our stamina, protect ourselves, and perhaps remind ourselves of why we have chosen to reincarnate into this lifetime. If you have ever wanted to do a past life regression or an Akashic records reading or meditation, this timeframe will offer extra support. You may also just naturally find yourself having dreams or intuitive downloads about your past life and soul contract.
