Hello Reader,

We hope that you are keeping cool as we continue to navigate heat waves and wild fires this summer.

This energy feels like an intro the astrological energies this week as we enter into Leo season on Thursday.

Thank you to Chani Nicholas, for your reflection this week on exploring new ways of shifting and stepping into leadership.
​Listen here for more guidance.

QS Lite is continuing for a few more weeks, so we're keeping things simple around these parts as we focus on our summer tending.

We do have a NEW podcast episode this week for you -- see below!

We invite to explore your own care by connecting with Queer Spirit Community resources in these ways: Patreon / QS Podcast, Care Menu offerings, and monthly virtual Care Circles.
