Midsummer Radiance

The Gemini New Moon has solidified our ability to honor the duality within, to anchor unity consciousness and channel butterfly medicine into all aspects of our lives.  Next week we welcome the zenith of the Sun as Midsummer aligns on Thursday, June 21 at 6:07 am.  

One of the things I find bittersweet about Summer Solstice is that as we honor the peak of the Sun, we also honor the Return of the Dark.  As this particular Midsummer is on the heels of such a deep Gemini New Moon, it seems to be asking each one of us to continue to honor the dark and the light within, to commit to soul growth work.  With Eclipse season about to unveil, our commitment to this work is essential.

The fertility of the Land is ripe.  The greens are abundant, the herbs and flowers plentiful and baby animals are growing.  This is the Festival of Attainment and celebrates the fulfillment of an individual. It is a time to enjoy and celebrate.  Use this day of Midsummer to focus and charge with healing and positive intent all you wish to be. Call upon the strength of the Sun to shine bright and inspire you!

You may also call upon the mineral allies for support.  I love citrine and sunstone for this time of year.  Citrine is a quartz stone of abundance and joy, carrying the Earth element. This stone helps one define and maintain healthy boundaries.  It is strengthening and tonifying.  Sunstone builds faith, trust and all energies of the Sun.  Dissolve all of your doubts- and know you are worthy and you deserve love!  Sunstone increases metabolism, vitality in body, and draws adrenal energy up into the higher glands.

May you live with fierce authentic courage, shining with the zenith of the Sun!
