With our in-person Summer Solstice Fire Ceremony around the corner (June 20, 6:30pm, McFarland, WI), I took a shamanic journey to the Sun to ask what I could share that would be of value to you if you either can't make it to our in-person ceremony, or you wanted to have another practice in addition to our Fire ceremony.
What came through made me smile, and I'm excited to dive into this practice myself. If you do part or all of this practice, please join my newsletter HERE, then reply to the first email and let me know what comes up for you!
Even if you feel challenged by the practice- I would love to hear about your experience. There is no "success" or "failure" with this type of work when you come to it with an open heart and mind- it is all success. You are successful simply for showing up with a pure heart and intention.
Your Summer Solstice Practice For Joy, Inspiration, and Positive Energy
The Sun has come to illuminate the fullness of your soul, your joy, and your passions this Summer. Here are 3 questions and a beautiful practice to explore either through a shamanic journey, a meditation, or in your heart.
1) How can you live in full expression of what lights your heart up?
2) How can you weave with intention the beautiful tapestry that is your life, this Summer?
3) What ideas, creations, thoughts, beliefs and actions make you giggle with delight, fill your heart with childlike wonder, and draw you in in a way that you completely lose track of time in the very best way?
Write all that down (or draw it, doodle it, paint it, create a song, a poem, a dance etc) just do whatever helps you to remember all that makes you feel most alive and overflowing with YOUR unique, radiant, creative life force energy.
Then create a soul nourishing ambiance in your home or in a peaceful place outdoors. Get comfortable, and close your eyes. Bring those things into your awareness- what does life look like when you are in this energy? What does it feel like to the touch? What does it feel like emotionally? What does it taste like? Smell like? Sound like? What do your sixth and seventh senses pick up about this reality that you are calling into your 3D life? Completely immerse yourself in this reality with any senses that kick in.
Avoid the temptation to second guess, label, or discount any of your senses, or the information coming through. Remember that your sixth sense and your seventh sense of sacred imagination are just as valid as any of your other senses, and they bring powerful and healing information when you simply let them “speak” to you.
Breathe this reality DEEPLY into your bones, your blood, your cells and your energetic field. Take your time, and feel how good it feels to be completely immersed in this reality.
Then ask Spirit, "Please show me how to embody as much of this beautiful energy as possible in my 3D life." Now, take notes of what flows through- don't filter, doubt, or second guess. Write down what you receive through all of your seven senses.
Then, TRUST what you receive! Follow the guidance and leap with faith as you continue to align with Love and joy, for you are a powerful creator of beautiful things when you choose to create with intention, trust, and devotion.
