Madame G guide to the stars Week of JUNE 10

E-mail Print PDF
A New Mexico spring is a sight to behold. One minute birds are singing and the sun is out; the next moment, wind is ripping through your yard while hail beats down. It’s pretty unpredictable, but if you hold on you’ll experience beauty. Madame G recommends that you hang on for the wild ride of the Last Quarter Moon on June 7. You might as well smile like it’s a rollercoaster.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

You have a generous heart, open mind, and outstanding physical prowess. You’re talented. But, you have a tendency to give so much you burn out. Before you implode from overwork, take a moment to appreciate what you’ve accomplished. You’re amazing! You should be proud of what...

Fences and Walls: How about our Wildlife

Letter to the Editor

Recently, while traveling on a rural road in our state, the new wire fences lining both sides peaked my interest. On one side of the road there was an old wooden post fence alongside the new metal fencing and there were man-made obstacles blocking the underpasses. As these fences went on for miles, I began to question how wildlife is to travel across our land for survival with these barriers in place. Later that week, I visited the border area and saw the miles of new border fencing being built causing even more obstacles to our wildlife.

Before human development such as fences, plows, oil, human, roads, and cattle that took their toll, New Mexico’s wildlands were...

The Sun is in Taurus and the Last Quarter Moon appears on May 26, so get ready for some stubborn winds. People born under the sign of Taurus are kind, hardworking, and often very reliable. They’re also stubborn, independent, and unyielding. This gets them into trouble. Madame G recommends that you take from the positive and adopt some flexibility. You might learn something.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

You’re not perfect and the world is going to disappoint you. But, that doesn’t have to be a bad thing. You also don’t have to lower your standards. You can maintain a high standard of excellence for yourself and still exert the least amount of effort worrying about it. Instead, take...

And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. Mark 12:29-31 (ESV)

At multiple points throughout Scripture, such as the passage above, we are reminded that human beings are more than simply our physical bodies. We easily recognize that we have a ‘body,’ and each of us individually know from experience we have a ‘mind,’ (though we may at times question if others have one).

Scripture clearly indicates that we have a ‘spirit’ as well. The mystery that we often wrestle with is “how do these interact?” They are interconnected, yet separate. In many ways, each...
