Color of the day: Red Incense of the day: Geranium Here is a prayer for the summer solstice. Feel free to reword it as you wish.
I welcome the east, where energy rises; call in the south, where the light reaches; gather the west, where we seek sacred rest; and greet the north, where we sink into our roots. Hail above, where our planetary parents Sun and Moon reside, and below, where all that has come before informs us.
Rise. Reach. Rest. Roots. Above and below.
I place my hands on my heart and know that as I stand in the bright light of the summer solstice, I celebrate mother and father, above and below, day and night, sun and moon. All of these live within me.
And as the sun stops and changes direction, I too am called to shift my trajectory, turning away from what no longer works, releasing what no longer serves, letting go of ancestral trauma and inherited patterns. Welcoming the radiant light of my sacred parents, I stand solidly on Earth and imagine new ways of being.
Blessed be.
