Solstice...............



The 21st of June is the official day of the Summer Solstice (longest day of the year) in the Northern hemisphere and the Winter Solstice (shortest day of the year) in the Southern hemisphere.  For 6 days during the Summer and Winter Solstice, the sun rises and sets in visibly the same location.

The Solstice is a time of celebration and rebirth.  It is a time to state intentions and to call on your angels, spirit guides or past ancestors to assist you on your path.  Start off by watching the first Solstice sunset and sunrise.  Use candles to light your home and decorate with found items of nature - twigs, berries, flowers, pinecones, stones, shells or herbs - rosemary is particularly good as it is the "herb of the sun."

Lastly, write a wish on a piece of paper for something you want to invite or banish from your life and then burn it.

Wishing you all a happy Solstice in whichever hemisphere you happen to be located.


Cheers,

Deb xx


p.s.  More babies are conceived during the Winter Solstice - you are one if your star sign is Virgo or Libra!
