Leo Helps Us Step into Leadership

Published 2 months ago • 2 min read

Hello Reader,

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

This weeks astrology has some luscious Leo vibes encouraging us to step into leadership.
Check out this weeks readings from Chani Nicholas and Jessica Lanyadoo to learn more how this energy might be showing up for your personally.

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.

With care + in solidarity,
TanyaMarck + Nick
