these times are a changin'

Come gather 'round people
Wherever you roam
And admit that the waters
Around you have grown
And accept it that soon
You'll be drenched to the bone
If your time to you
Is worth savin'
Then you better start swimmin'
Or you'll sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changin'.

Winter Solstice

No matter what our spiritual beliefs, or where in the world we may live, we all share the turning of the sun on the solstices.

 

In the Northern Hemisphere, Winter Solstice comes on December 21, the shortest  day of the year. After the Winter Solstice, the days becomes longer until the  longest day of the year arrives around June 21st. It is often thought of as  Symbolic time of rebirth.

 

Honouring the solstice is something lost to most of us, and it feels deeply meaningful, in a mystical sort of way, to choose to make a glimmer of connection.

 

Our ancestors celebrated light being reborn on this day, reflecting their close relationship with nature. They felt the effect of the cycles of the universe directly in their lives.

 

With seasons shifting from autumn to winter, it is a time of transition, with yin energy at its peak and yang energy at its minimum expression. It’s the darkest day of the year, and yet this day has a glimmer of light in all its darkness. This seed has power and the potential for transformation, rebirth and full expression. From this point on, light is reborn to grow gradually as the days become longer.

 

Winter Solstice can often remind us of death and regeneration with death being an essential element preceding regeneration. Like the trees that loose their leaves preparing for winter, trusting that new ones will grow in spring, we can also see endings as necessary agents giving way to new beginnings. Can you accept death as part of the natural cycle of the universe? What is dying and being reborn in your life?

 

On the darkest and longest night of the year, honour this darkness and nourish the seed of light so that it may bloom and shine brightly tomorrow.

 

Happy Winter Solstice!!!
