Happy Winter Solstice friends. Very much feeling drawn to reflect on my journey & to enjoy some gentle self care rituals🔥☀️💜
Today marks the Solstice and here in Australia, it is the shortest day. The longest night.
This season has always felt less like an ending and more like a pause. A moment to sit with what has quietly changed within us.
Over the last six months, life may have asked things of us we never expected. To become softer where we were rigid. Stronger where we once collapsed. More spacious where we once held on. More honest where we once avoided. More trusting where we once controlled.
There are many stories spoken at solstice about Earth activations and energies moving through the collective.
Yet perhaps the most important activation is the one that happened within you.
What has strengthened?
What has become more resilient?
What have you stopped carrying?
What truth have you allowed yourself to see?
What did the darkness reveal that the light could not?
As we move through the shortest day and begin the slow return of light, maybe this is not a time to rush forward.
Maybe it is simply a time to witness.
To honour who you were six months ago.
To acknowledge who you are now.
To notice what no longer fits.
To feel what wants to grow.
The light returns gradually.
One minute at a time.
One choice at a time.
One breath at a time.
May this Solstice bring reflection without judgement, rest without guilt, and a quiet remembering that even in seasons that looked still from the outside, something sacred was becoming within you.
If it feels right, take a moment today and ask yourself:
Who have I become since the last Solstice?
If you wish to have a quiet practice on sunset, ask what shadow you wish to bring to light and speak the aloud, one hand in your heart and feet on the Earth. What truth have you been struggling to accept? What limitation has played out its role? What hidden anger, pain or grief can now be set free?
As bigger things shift for our Earth, it will an also creating new reference points within our field too. What new boundaries are you claiming as a way to navigate this next six months?
Blessings everyone
With love,
Aunty b xx ♥️
