Winter Solstice

Thank you for celebrating with me!

Below you will find a video of the altar and explanation of each piece. 

Our Altar

I have rerecorded the altar building and lighting of the candle. This is the actual video with better audio.

The Celebration

This is the audio minus the altar part. I do realize that the music came across a bit louder in the recording. If you have any questions about last night, drop me an email. 

The Oracle Card

​From the Mystical Shaman Oracle deck.

The Essence

"The witness observes without engaging in any action. By cultivating inner stillness, we are able to assess any situation from a higher perspective and make better decisions. When we can be present for someone else's difficulties with stillness, then we able to truly hear them and give better advice. Sometimes we can be so still that we are a mirror for the other. Then, through our presence, they receive their own answers."

The Invitation

"The witness that has been by your side all along is now ready to become your ally. You thought you were the doer, but today you discover that things happen when you get out of the way. Witness creation unfolding before you. Change reality by finding stillness and letting your true intent reveal itself."

​​Lines For Winter by Mark Strand

​Tell yourself
as it gets cold and gray falls from the air
that you will go on
walking, hearing
the same tune no matter where
you find yourself --
inside the dome of dark
or under the cracking white
of the moon's gaze in a valley of snow.
Tonight as it gets cold
tell yourself
what you know which is nothing
but the tune your bones play
as you keep going. And you will be able
for once to lie down under the small fire
of winter stars.
And if it happens that you cannot
go on or turn back and you find yourself
where you will be at the end,
tell yourself
in that final flowing of cold through your limbs
that you love what you are.

Move inward, into the depths of your soul.
