Harmony Circle - Guest Presenter Sunday 4th August
Mike Kirk: Soul Path Astrology

Venue; Community Hall, 2 Alnwick St (next door to Town Hall), Warkworth.
Open at 6.45pm for a 7pm start. $5 contribution at the door – Harmony Circle is non-profit.

Your birth chart and your health. Having an astrologer examine your horoscope can give you crucial information: About your health. What your vulnerable spots are and how to minimise problems.

I look at the position of your Sun and Moon & Ascendant (decided by your time of birth) as well as your 6th/12th "house."
My job is to give you guidance and advice. Sometimes (rarely) I will let you know if it would be good to get a Doctor's formal assessment (just don't tell him I sent you!)
I aim to give an accurate picture of how best you can manage your health. Not scare you to death!
Planetary indicators are just that: indicators. Your nature may well be written in the stars, but your choices have more impact. These choices are the primary determinant of good health.

I am giving a complimentary birth chart reading to the lucky winner of the draw for this talk.
I do readings from home in Waiwera or, I could do the reading remotely, on FaceTime. Readings can focus on anything your wish, and do not have to be about health. People often have relationship or career questions, or are looking for guidance on major decisions.

Hi neighbours,

Meet the man who has considered Auckland Airport his second home for over 20 years.

Twice a week, 86-year-old Les Featherstone takes a taxi to the International Terminal where he volunteers for four-and-a-half hours as an airport ambassador, or Bluecoat.

Twenty-four years is a long time to hold down one job, especially as a volunteer, but Featherstone says signing up was the best thing he's ever done.

In recent times, the airport has taken on a new meaning for him following the death of his wife last month.

Do you plan to volunteer once you retire? What would be your dream role?

An Auckland dog owner is warning of the dangers rat bait can cause after her beloved pet nearly died after ingesting it twice.

Tracy Leach said her 8-year-old golden retriever Daisy first got sick about four weeks ago on their rural property in Glenbrook, south of Auckland.

She bounced back pretty quickly but Leach started to notice she was vomiting constantly and consuming a lot of water - causing her to take Daisy back to the vet.

All it takes is a kind gesture to change someone’s day. From paying it forward in line at a cafe to giving flowers to a friend ‘just because’ - this month we’re encouraging our members and supporters to make New Zealand a better place one random act of kindness at a time.

The options for doing so are endless! Being kind doesn’t have to cost a thing, after all a smile is free. For those who want to go the extra mile, here’s some other ideas: Buy extra kai at the grocery store to donate to a food pantry, help someone with a broken down car or flat tire, bring treats into work for colleagues, send an encouraging text to someone who needs it, let a car into the traffic ahead of you, take a gift over to new neighbours and introduce yourself, write positive messages in chalk on sidewalks around your neighbourhood, or surprise loved ones with a visit.

This month also coincides with World Humanitarian Day on August 19th and Random Acts of Kindness Day (New Zealand) which is on September 1st.

Let us know how you’re spreading kindness in your community by tagging us in your posts + using the following hashtag so we can see what you get up to:
