#Tarot underneath/shadow card of evening: Seven of Swords.

You may not be too impressed with options available, so you'll need to make the best of them. A tweak here, an adjustment there can make the different.

#Tarot card of evening: Nine of Wands.

There is still much ahead to do, so breathe deeply, ground yourself, and keep going. Don't get complacent. Stay vigilant, persist, and persevere.

Pagan Community Notes for Week of June 3, 2026:

In this week’s Pagan Community Notes: honeybees may be engineering their queens, a call for submissions on AI and Paganism, allegations of “cult-like” activity in an online occult community, Star’s Tarot of the Week, and—of course—therapy donkeys. (Seriously, why have we been missing out?)

Expanding on an earlier post that buried the lede under a "There can be only one" Highlander graphic:

The US military dropped 180 different faiths from its list of recognized religions, while retaining distinct codes for 21 or 22 Christian (depending on how Latter Day Saints / Mormons get pigeonholed) groups. Unitarian Universalists got dropped from the list, as did Deists -- despite the fact that some signers of the Constitution identified as Deists, Unitartians, or Universalist.

Jewish? That's listed, but no distinction among Orthodox/Reform/Liberal/Reconstruction, etc.

Islamic? The difference between Sunni and Shia likely matters to you, but not to your commanders.

Pagan? Wiccan? Druid? Fuggedaboudit.

I know people who worked for years to get some recognition for non-Abrahamic religions in the US military -- if only to keep clergy from trying to convert them! We cheered as people who chose to serve in the military were recognized as more than "other".

And now there's not a single recognition of any Pagan or NeoPagan group -- but there are more than 20 flavors of Christian. Because to this regime, that's what matters.

DOD Officially Drops 180 Faiths From Military's Recognized Religion List

Defense Secretary Hegseth previously announced the change due to an "impractical" system.

When “Streamlining” Means Erasing: Pagans in Uniform Deserve Better

The Department of Defense says it is streamlining religious-affiliation codes, but for Pagan, Wiccan, Druid, Heathen, Humanist, Atheist, and other minority-belief service members, that “streamlining” looks a lot like disappearance. Religious liberty is not measured by how comfortably the majority is served. It is measured by whether minority faiths can be named, counted, and respected.
