Read your June horoscope to reveal what’s in store for you, from the astrologers at Tarot.com. With the Solar Eclipse in Gemini on June 10, there’s definitely a sense of new ideas waiting to be born in our lives. Less fortunately, Mercury will be retrograde during this eclipse, forcing us to remain in an uncertain incubation period for a little while longer. On June 22, Mercury turns direct and we’ll start to get some of the clarity we need to flesh out our plans and move forward with them. — By Tarot.com Astrologers Reveal the things that are unique to your sign with a FREE Birth Chart from Tarot.com
The Art Preserve, opening June 26, is committed to the care and study of these immersions, most made by people with little or no formal training. It is a satellite campus of the John Michael Kohler Arts Center, 3 miles away, and a lasting legacy of the late Ruth DeYoung Kohler II, a woman of wealth who saw value in what unheralded people created, often with castoff materials.
My point is that you are alternately pushing him to stop and then cushioning him when he doesn’t, and so you are absorbing some of the real consequences of his drinking, which for him might be having to face and choose treatment for his depression without you distracting him by making empty threats to leave. Your conflicted feelings are keeping both of you in place.
When choosing trees or shrubs to add to your garden, do research to make sure they will fit your space when they are mature. For example, Quick Fire hydrangeas (Hydrangea paniculata ‘Bulk’) can grow up to 8 feet tall and wide, but there are other cultivated varieties of this flowering shrub that will remain more compact.

“Harlow Hillis passed peacefully in his parents’ arms on Saturday, June 5. Born in Gridley, Kansas, he soon relocated to Chicago to pursue a career in acting and stopping by Target. You may remember him from a Volvo commercial (shown online only one time back in 2013) or perhaps from dramatically lying outside of the Target on Division street, refusing to move until his mom took him inside. Har loved his walks and never forgot a water bowl or treat jar, even when they were no longer there. Some of his hobbies included begging for hot dogs at Vinny D’s (he once tried to jump through their window) growling at plastic bags blowing in the wind, and casually pretending to stop and tie his shoe (he didn’t wear shoes) when passing the dirty dish bucket outside of Smoke Daddy. Har retired in the mountains of Colorado where he spent his last year hiking, going on road trips and welcoming a baby sister, whom he tolerated. He will be greatly missed by his family, mostly his parents, Chris and Taylor, who loved him so very much. He was everything they could have asked for and more in a best friend. They will miss his snoring, his singing, and his ability to press, ‘accessible ability shortcuts’ on the remote control at any given time. But most of all they will miss him. He was the best boy ever. In lieu of flowers Harlow made one last request: That you donate your Instant Pots … straight to the trash. Those things are evil.”

While talking to children about leadership qualities is important, in my opinion this teacher is displaying poor leadership skills herself, because she is delivering a dispiriting, rather than inspiring, message that in all probability bewilders and embarrasses all of the “leaders,” as well as the excluded.

Read: “How to Be an Antiracist,” by Ibram X. Kendi (2019, One World). Part memoir, part polemic, Kendi’s book provides provocative talking points and concrete action plans for people who want to know – and do – more to connect across the racial divide.
Other shade-tolerant plants, such as hostas, ferns, pigsqueak (Bergenia), bleeding heart (Dicentra spectabilis) and wild columbine (Aquilegia canadensis) will grow in dry shade if you keep the soil moist. “Watering plants under a tree will help the tree as well, since its roots are all around.” Janoski said.
