Summer Solstice the time of year when the light reigns most fully, gracing our days with its longest presence. It is a 3 day portal where the sun appears to be stationary in the sky before initiating the gradual descent towards Winter.
We receive more light right now. Which means we can often see things more clearly, or have something illuminated that once was hidden.
Often this means aspects of our shadow emerge: parts of us hungry to be seen, but may have hidden away in fear until now. Parts of us longing to be known and loved, and added into the greater spectrum of our inner power.
You get the choice now whether or not to claim and welcome in these aspects of yourself.
A Suggested Ceremony:
Take some time to feel into who and what you are claiming, awakening, celebrating, or honoring in yourself.
Questions to ponder: What aspect of yourself are you claiming or standing in more strongly?
What has blossomed in your life that you can celebrate?
What portal are you walking through right now in your life?
What is being illuminated or awakened in you for you to see, know, or work with?
Then, light a candle, step outside under the witness of the sun, and claim this aloud through your voice: Some examples: "I am claiming ______ aspect of myself, welcoming them fully, and integrating their medicine" or "I honor myself as ___________," or "As ____ awakens in me, I celebrate myself and claim my ______."
You may also want to speak this prayer aloud:
May my light and my heart shine through every action I take.May I claim my beauty, my power, my medicine, and my magnificence.May I know the light that is me, and remember myself as an integral part of the whole.And may I have the courage to shine forth my gifts for the hungry world.
Once spoken, receive the rays of the sun, blessing your claim, charging up your brightness, your courage, and your radiance. Listen to your heart for any action that wants to be taken to solidify this claim.
Then, thank the Solstice Sun and the Earth as your witness. End with a statement such as "it is so," or "so it is," or "blessed be."
