In August I update old Crystalinks files based on popularity and new content - such as extinction which has become very popular. Did the reported 6 extinction events really happen or - as I suspect - were different inserts in the simulation and perhaps never happened at all.

With that in mind - on a rare perfect weather day in the city I walked to the promenade where I met a couple visiting from Quebec and two young woman from Russia who had rented bikes to see the sights of Bay Ridge. We really do need more days like this - but you take them when you get them as the climate changes...

This isn't exactly Thoth but birds have been part of my readings these days ... from a Falconer in Illinois to a local bird watcher - the theme continues. Also of note ... I have seen butterflies lately in reference to mediumship with clients. Can spirits manifest as birds or butterflies, or something similar? Apparently they can.

Thoth, the ancient Egyptian god of the moon had two very different faces - a crescent-beaked white bird and a silver-coated baboon. Now, researchers think they may have found the common thread connecting them all.   PhysOrg - August 3, 2026
