Random fact about me that does actually have something to do with the Sun:
I have visual snow, as much as I enjoy the suns rays on my skin, I can't look at a clear bright sky for very long. My whole vision fills with a blanket of white after a few seconds. I tend to look up at the sky with the sun behind me, if I have to look at something in the sun's general direction and there isn't enough things to block it's light, I'll take a quick look and tell you what I *can* see (if anything) or turn away and ask for a picture. (9/10 times I just move the conversation along or the other person just tells me after I say I can't see it, which is annoying cause with "better" lighting I can see pretty far actually.)
Now I know some might be like "pretty sure you're not supposed to look at the sun silly!" That's not what I mean. I mean the literal entire landscape, is washed out. I actually spent a significant amount of time as a kid just looking at the floor tbh lol. (Fluorescent lighting in public places can go fuck themselves.)
I'd say my joy for nature came from when I explored the woods around where I lived as a kid. The trees would shade me, but not too much as to not feel the sun beams pearing through. It was lovely.
I don't think I would of gotten the same joy I do out of nature if it wasn't for this particular experience. I enjoy learning about all types of magick but I chose Solar as a focus because of how it's shaped and affected me, for the good and the bad.
I love it for the melanin in my skin, it reminds me to be happy and free. I love it for my soul, I used to stay hidden for so long in hopes of solitude and peace, but I remembered that with the sun comes the shade, the trees which shielded me, grow from its warmth too.
I am grateful to all elements,
But y'all the suns pretty cool, it's a star just like me ;)

Chinese Solar Calendar: 小暑 Minor Heat
You may have heard about the Chinese Lunar calendar, but what's the solar calendar?
The Lunar Calendar is based on the phases of the moon, divided into 12 months. It's used for determining festivals e.g. Spring Festival/Chinese New Year.
The Solar Calendar however, is based on the Earth's orbit around the Sun, and it's divided into 24 phases, each lasting around 15 days.
Historically, this has been used for agriculture and specific seasonal activities, as each new season would be an indicator of a change in the weather and allow farmers to plan and prepare accordingly.
Currently we're about to enter 小暑 (Xiǎoshǔ) Minor Heat, so here are some customs and interesting information about this upcoming time period!
小暑 Minor Heat is the 11th solar phase and it starts approximately from July 6-8. Minor Heat, like its' name, has relatively hot and humid weather, with thunderstorms and monsoons being quite common. The weather and rainfall may vary, as northern regions in China tend to be colder with their rainy seasons starting later.
Food:
Eel, Mung bean soup, lotus roots and lotus leaf porridge, watermelon rind dew.
Customs:
"Eating New Food Custom" 食新习俗 (Shíxīn xísú). This is an old custom where some regions would use newly harvested rice and wheat to make flour, from which they would make various breads and noodles and share them with friends and family for good fortune and a good harvest.
"Eating Dumplings" 吃饺子 (Chī jiǎozi). Relatively self-explanatory. This period of time is quite hot and people tend to be not as hungry, which is why dumplings are considered to be the best food to stimulate hunger. I for one can't think of an occasion where I would refuse dumplings, so this may indeed be true.
Drying things on the 6th day of the 6th lunar month. Drying paintings and clothes is believed to prevent them from being by insects
Proverbs:
雨打小暑头，四十五天不用牛 (Yǔ dǎ xiǎoshǔ tóu, sìshíwǔ tiān bùyòng niú): If it rains at the start of Minnor Heat, no cattle will be needed for 45 days.
小暑交大暑，热得无处躲 (Xiǎoshǔ jiāodà shǔ, rè dé wú chù duǒ): From Lesser Heat to Greater Heat, it's so hot that there's no place to hide.
Traditional Exterior
Leo
-Confident and finds empowerment through self-love. -Is a lion, embodies courage. -Talk about creative power! -Fire has an association with athletics. This stems from a need to release physical energy. On the surface level we can categorize fire signs as “the jocks”. Placements and aspects with fire signs is where you need to look. -Leo tends to like the finer things in life, luxuries. They are connected to themes of royalty after all. -Is heated, passionate. -Tends to have a higher libido.
-That fixed behavior can produce a controlling side that is bossy, overbearing, and authoritative. -Can fall into using people, sometimes this isn’t intentional. -Pride can get in the way of sharing vulnerability and connecting with others on a deeper level. -Fear of rejection or of being forgotten about can get in the way of connection too. -Has a selfish side, all fire signs do. -Can actually put a partner on a pedestal, become obsessed with them, sometimes this obsession is more about their image together OR is wrapped up in how their personalities play off each other. -Leo is a very sensitive sign who has plenty of moments of insecurities - they just want to be loved, to feel special, and they have a lot of warmth and love to give.
