To my fellow tender lovers, co-conspirators, dreamers and comrades of the northern hemisphere, we did it, we made it - happy summer solstice! To my fellow Cancer babies, happy cancer season!
This year, the sun will reach its northernmost point on June 21st at 3:58 pm UK time, which is 10:58 am Eastern time and 7:58 am Pacific Time.
Meaning it’s showtime for the energetic influence of the sun! The yang energy from the sun brings masculine energy to meet the feminine yin energy of the Earth that produces all of the goodness we depend on for our physical, emotional, and physical needs. This really is the time for stepping into our energy and bringing into reality our deepest desires <3
I am feeling the yang energy of today so much. I am feeling how much I need to use it to come and nurture the feminine yin within me that has been yearning for care. I am kissing the ground as I jump up and reach for the sky asking the universe to help me release all of my fears so I can remember and stand in the power of this time.
Some words I found helpful on power by my favourite energy expert Prune Harris:
“Power is a word that holds so many connotations within our modern world that it is necessary to specify what I mean when I use the word. Power is about having access to your full and whole energy. Power is about claiming all of who you are, with trust and willingness to sit with your own challenges. Power is not projecting your challenges onto others and believing them to be the truth. Power is about living from your centre with consciousness, and compassion. And, vital in our times, it is the understanding that one cannot experience either personal power or compassion for others without fully embracing compassion towards self.”
This is a reminder for myself as well as anyone reading that needs to hear this that NOW is our time for expansion. It’s time to embrace all the parts of ourselves, as that is what is needed if we want to move towards a more truthful and aligned existence. Even though we may be afraid to make change happen, we need to be courageous! The solstice is here to remind us that we are safe to do so and that the universe is always holding us close with open arms even if it doesn’t feel like it right now - believe it!
Go out in the world today and celebrate being alive! Smile at a stranger! Celebrate love, connection and joy! May your laughter reverberate into the atmosphere! Remember your power and use it!
Here is a little energy routine you can do today to celebrate the sun and embrace your yang power energy, I’ll be doing it too so we can do it together!
May we all remember how powerful we are.
Love + Sun blessings to all,
Naomi <3
