As I write this invitation, it is finally feeling warm out. It actually got up to 25degrees C today and I could comfortabley go out in a short sleeve top and capris.  
The Daffodils and Tulips are retiring, taking with them the feel of spring. They are being replaced by purple lilacs, white and pink dogwood blossoms, multicoloured  rhododendrens and azeleas. I just love the peachy-tangerine colour of the azeleas and I send the energy of gratitude to the people who planted them for our viewing pleasure.    

 The sweet smell of leaves entice me as I drive along beside the river, and today I caught a whiff of something delightful as I did a walking meditation in the labyrinth across the road from where I live. I've noticed that I go into even higher vibration when my sense of smell is stimulated by mother natures delectable gifts.

 


  I will be celebrating the solstice  with a ceremony at Blue Mountain Park in Coquitlam 10:00 am on Sunday June 20.    We will meet by Scout Hall at 9:45  .  Bring your gifts for Mother Earth, drums, rattles, bells and conscious high vibration (positive) energy, as we welcome the longest day of the year, the true arrival of summer.   

 
In our personal annual cycle this is a time of allowing what we began at the spring equinox- our new projects and habits to grow.  We may wish to evaluate how they are doing, and perhaps tweak them a bit. Just as we wouldnt pull a plant or shrub by the roots to see how its growing, we  need to trust that we are exactly where we need to be with our endeavor and nurture it with loving energy.  

During the ceremony, we will still use the synergistic energy of the group to "amp" up (this is energy after all) the vibration of your desired outcomes and access clear inner guidance and direction for any further action needed before we harvest in the fall.  . 


I will be adding to the articles about solstices on the StoneHaven Alchemy website  in the next few weeks, so check there a couple of times to see what fun and symbolic activities you can do. You can learn more about how to prepare for the Summer solstice, and how other cultures celebrate this auspicious day.
