Picture credit to my brother.
Some folks have asked how we celebrate Winter Solstice. Each year it is slightly different. This year, I was guided to have our celebration early because of the weather ahead so we scheduled for the 10th of December. Winter Solstice is about the shortest day and the longest night. By having our celebration on the Sunday, 11 days early, we had a bit more daylight and we started early…at 4 PM.
We have a group - our tribe - that comes to our meditations and celebrations. Including my husband and me, we had 17 people in front of the fire. Yes, we have a fire to light the way and to carry away all that we throw to it.
Our steps for the evening included:
- Smudging everyone
- Drumming
- Welcome and quick overview of what will be happening
- Opening Sacred Space
- The theme
- Breathing exercise to support the theme
- Meeting the guides for this evening
- Several quick meditations
- Sharing Circle
- Closing Sacred Space
The experiences that folks had were amazing! It was fun for all of us. The evening helped to wipe out some anxiety and restore balance. The energy was so high! It all felt right.
Blessings,
Judy

Thanks for reading this blog post. Sharing is good if it is kind and either has questions or tells about an experience. (Rudeness and profanity are excluded.)
