WINTER SOLSTICE

The Winter Solstice (Hibernal Solstice) takes place on Sunday, December 21, 2025, 10:02 a.m. EST in the northern hemisphere. December 21 will have the least amount of daylight as the sun will be at its lowest arc in the sky for the northern hemisphere.

 

Shortly after December 21, our precious sunlight will begin to increase again (only by seconds in the beginning.  The additional light will be more noticeable in the evenings.)

 

As much of nature sleeps and the light is limited, we can use the long nights to reflect on our life’s journey. Go inward and plan your intentions for when the energy and the light return.

 

Follow Mother Nature example as she knows best. Many animals are now hibernating or slowing down, resting and waiting for the return of light, for the return of warmth, the return of the energy that nurtures us mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually.

 

Our obvious current lesson is patience. Utilize this time wisely.  You can use it to look deep into your shadow self. Bring light to the darkest corners of your being but do not judge what you find. Fill each corner with love and allow spirit to grow.

 

Is it coincidence that during Yule season (the rebirth of light), Christians celebrate the birth of Christ for example (the rebirth of salvation)? This is a time of celebration for many, whether it is Yule, Christmas, Hanukah, Kwanzaa, Bodhi Day, Saturnalia, and the list goes on.

 

We have much to celebrate. Be filled with promise, with faith in all that is. Be filled with gratitude, with love and with inner healing light! Winter Solstice blessings.

THE SEASONS PLAY THEIR PART

We are moving from the long hot days of summer here in North America to feeling the slight influence of Autumn (even though the calendar does dictate it is Fall). 

 

Fall undoubtedly will bring needed rain and cooler temperatures and hopefully some beautiful colours here in southern Ontario.

 

Aside from the forecast, many of us feel the effects internally with the change of the seasons. 

 

Summer is a busy time of year being with friends and enjoying fun in the sun. It is a time for sharing and a time for reflecting on our personal relationships.  We often connect, hopefully on a deeper level and share more of our lives with others. 

 

Fall seems to bring things to a close, a finishing up and wind-down period.  Some are busy with their children preparing for the upcoming year, while others busy themselves with chores that may have been pushed aside during the “fun” summer season.  It is a different kind of busy as we prepare for the upcoming season of winter.  Fall is a perfect time to review what we have learned and to celebrate all that is.  

 

For some, winter can be a time of isolation or seclusion. This time can be more personal and is a perfect time for personal study and development. This is a time for self-study and reflection.  It can also be used for more cozy family time. 

 

Spring brings an end to the quiet of winter. Everything begins anew.  Life begins to sprout, and we seem to become awakened and slip into preparation mode.  All that we have contemplated and learned can now be put into practice as we are filled with a renewed vigor and our energy seems to heightened.  This too can be a time to be appreciative of all that is. 

 

Reflection is required in all seasons of life. The seasons play their part and offer unique circumstances. Look to nature as a guide, the trees, the animals, the flowers, the weather. They all utilize what is available to them to make life’s season flow perfectly.

PROGRESS STIFLED

At times our efforts seem less than adequate and this is frustrating.  We struggle and may feel like giving up. As the struggles continue, our drive and confidence can wither.

 

Reminder yourself that these times are temporary and the energies will shift. During these time when we feel we cannot accomplish much physically, we can utilize this time to review, contemplate and plan.  We just need to accept that it is not the time to advance or move forward.  We likely are not ready, even though we feel as though we are. Rest your mind, body and soul while you can as when the energies shift, it likely will be eventful.

 

All things in life have their seasons. If the time is not right, be aware of it and utilize your time effectively.  It may be to rest; it may be to learn more, or it may be simply that the timing is not right. It is what it is, but it certainly is not progress stifled!

OPEN THE DOOR

Open the door. The energies are ready for transformation…..for an idea to materialize, to manifest. 

 

Always have faith in the process and believe it can happen to or for you.  Doubt stifles potential.

 

In the coming days, depending on your readiness and belief structure, the door can open. 

 

Lunar eclipses are significators of disruption and new beginnings. The energy is now in force from the Pisces Full Moon Lunar Eclipse we experienced a couple of days ago.  Use the energy to your advantage and delve deep into yourself.  Inner structuring is unfolding, and you can apply these energies in areas that need revamping and organizing in life.

 

Inner working often is coordinated with outside influences and assistance is readily available and easier to access.  Be mindful of what it is you want to achieve or attain.  This is not to say that this is a time to unleash the power of positive thinking, because any time is the time to unleash positive thinking. This is, however, a time to put into practice what helps you achieve what you set out to do.

 

Inner work is generally required, but an honest look is certainly needed, or inner changes cannot take hold.  Be gentle with yourself but push ahead.  Do what needs to be done and advance.  Strive for what is right for you without any influence from others.  This is personal in nature.

 

Open the door to transformation. A good attitude, focused expectations and forward motion is what is required.  Make this a memorable time for advancement.  Use your energies appropriately.
