Today watching the sun rise, I felt hope. Even through the darkest, coldest days, the sun will rise with warmth and light. I hope everyone had a wonderful Yule and Winter Solstice. 🌌🌄
🎶Singing Up the Sun!🌞
“Something in us needs to know that at the end of the longest night, there will be light.
In connecting with the natural world in a way that honors the sacred immanent in all things, we establish a resonance with the seasons. Ritual helps to shift our consciousness to reflect the outer world inside our inner landscape: the sun stands still within us, and time changes. After the longest night, we sing up the dawn. There is a rejoicing that, even in the darkest time, the sun is not vanquished. Sol Invictus — the Unconquered Sun — is seen once again, staining the horizon with the promise of hope and brilliance.”
