Other Hand Tarot

On the Summer Solstice, we celebrate the longest day of the year—the moment when the sun offers its fullest light to the world.

As the Persian mystical poet Hafiz says in this beloved poem, the sun never asks for anything in return. It simply shines, warming the earth, nourishing life, and illuminating all it touches.

What might it mean to live with a love like that? A love rooted in generosity rather than transaction. A love that gives freely, creates abundance, and helps others grow.

May this Solstice invite us to receive the gifts of this season with gratitude—and to share our own light generously with the world.

☀️

Happy Solstice! Here's the Sun putting on its best happy shining face for the special occasion, from the Splendor Solis (The Splendour of the Sun), a 16th-century German alchemical treatise.

(And if you want to shine some sun on the PDR you can donate to our fundraiser, which will end in JUST A FEW HOURS! https://publicdomainreview.org/support) 🙏

Sad to say there is no summer night market happening next week :(

Unfortunately, we have made the decision to cancel this month’s Night Market.

While we’re disappointed we won’t be gathering under the lights this month, we’re already looking ahead to some exciting community events planned for the summer!

✨ And yes… Where’s Waldo? is returning to Almonte this July! 👓🔍

Stay tuned for details, event announcements, and plenty of opportunities to shop local, explore downtown, and connect with our amazing community.

Thank you for your continued support—we can’t wait to see you this summer! ❤️
