About this Event
You are warmly welcome to come and celebrate the fullness of our creative power for this Summer Solstice on 20th and 21st June.Come and join this beautiful community, we’re offering a range of exciting workshops and sessions over the course of the weekend on Facebook live and Zoom, with the Summer Solstice theme of Unity and connection. Facilitated by the Ouse Valley community and beyond, our intention is to connect to the land and to each other through our hearts - creating beautiful sacred ceremony with our wishes, prayers and blessings for 2020.
From Glennie Kindred:The Summer Solstice is the peak of our expressive and expansive selves. Let’s celebrate what we have achieved and manifested so far this year. It’s is a time for the enjoyment of all that we have and celebrate our own uniqueness. We can use this special day to focus and charge with healing and positive intent all we wish to be. In ceremony, we add the strength and the power of the Sun to enhance and activate those wishes. Abandon yourself to the expressive arts and joy. Celebrate the death and rebirth of the great cycle of the year. As the power of the outer realms wane, the power of the inner realms expand and we are made whole once again.Summer Solstice, like Winter Solstice, is a time for gathering together with like-minded people. Many people go to the stone circles on Midsummer’s eve to watch the solstice sunrise. This is an opportunity to meet and be with fellow kindred spirits.
In all of nature, the rampant growth period of the year has reached it’s peak. The trees are in full leaf and blossom, herbs and flowers are flourishing. There begins to be an abundance of vegetables and the fruit and grain are ripening. Everywhere, there is a sense of completeness and abundance.By the end of this weekend, you will have had plenty of time and space to experience a deeper and more profound spiritual connection, sharing sacred space and ceremony with other like minded souls. You can improve your everyday spiritual practice, through some of these beautiful offerings.As a circle, we share our skills and dreams in a safe, interactive sacred space. Drawing on the energy of this beautiful land, the rivers and the oceans, we can easily connect with the wisdom of the ancestors, to the cosmos and to each other.
