This won't serve the same function as the 'May Warning' thread. This time, no warnings will be given. This time, let us see what the month of July heralds in Magickal/ethereal terms and share, won't we?

Won't we?

What do you think will happen?

What do you hope will happen?

And best of all, tell as the month and incidents advance along.

each day will be slightly shorter than the one before it, each night slightly longer. Not being facetious, simply stating fact. Today is the summer solstice, the height of solar yang... but even at it's zenith, it contains the seed of its opposite.

Strange to feel so melancholy at such a joyous time, so many people celebrating, making merry, making love in the warm twilight of these shortest nights. This is the beginning of the downswing. I feel like a small child at a party, the only person not celebrating... because I'm the only person who allows themself to see the party for what it is...

It's a farewell party on a boat in the offing. By dawn we'll be ashore again waving our goodbyes, by Equinox they'll be over the horizon.

Odd, I feel much more vibrant and upbeat then I did awhile ago. But I like the summer.

So, just to clarify, this isn't a thread where, if WW3 breaks out in July, Chrome wouldn't jump up and down and say it's proof of any psychic divination powers? This is just to record personal magick-related experiences during that month?

i'm definitely expecting to discover that we've all been built by aliens next month.

i feel embarassed about sounding such a grumpy humbug, but the word i feel best sums me up in summertime is 'doldrums'. the heat and pressure gives me headaches, much sunshine makes me worry about cancer and i don't like summer clothing. fucking all that celtic blood i suppose, but rain's my comfortablest weather.

for july i expect to finish ulysses which'll be nice for me and month 1 proper of my year-long magik plan begins. july and august are like dying off, and i get a buzz of fresh energy mid-september, when we rotate away from sirius probly .

Casting my mind into future-time I foretell that the era of July will be totally and utterly destroyed. No trace of it will remain. Instead, a new era will arise and will be known as 'AUGUST'.

I predict this momentous time will begin at the end of next month.

My book Arcboi Predicts will soon be available from Amazon and all good book shops, only £9.99.

July is the month where I celebrate my birthdate -- the 9th -- and the birthdate of my late father -- the 13th -- so it is especially interesting to see how mature I am at that time.

Feel like a punk kid.

It is also the month where my facial & dental reconstruction will be complete, I had an accident this month on the 13th going to the 14th, that meant a couple of broken teeth, and a couple others bent out of shape.

And it also heralded the time when I was to meet up and live with Laila in person, but said accident + other incidents I do not feel comfortable discussing here, have negated this process. Which means I am free to do what I want to do -- cue confusion and exhileration in equal doses, often at the same time.

So, in order to find a place I am comfortable with, I am going to invoke some spirits by meditation on my birthday and my late father's birthdate.

July is named for Julius Caesar. I'm always afraid of July when I'm thinking and joyous and exuberant when I'm not.

What will this month bring? Repreive. Temporary distraction from an overall vein of unfortunate misery.

That repreive will give much needed "energy" to us all which will be used later to subvert the afformentioned vein to something else. Something (hopefully) better.
But now I'm getting ahead of myself.
I'm saying July=Repreive.

And hell, I get to have a birthday too. 21st.

How am I going to spend the month? Doing what the Literary historians call leading a "full" life.

That is, partying like mad with no fear of consequences.
"Consequences? There won't be any CONSEQUENCES. Not THIS TIME."

Oh, and imp? Make sure your comics get distributed in DC. PWEEEEASE! ~smoochie noises~

Chrome - you're only nine years old?

As for July - July 23rd-28th is, of course, velvetvandal versus America. Flying over to visit a mate in Baltimore by way of Washington DC. By the time I'm finished there, you won't fuckin' recognise the place...

...as long as you've never been there. Or seen any pictures. Or anything.
