Indigo Nature Retreat ~ Old Fort, NC
Summer Soul-Stice
A time to radiate
The Summer solstice symbolizes the shift from action to nourishment, mirroring the Sun's role in sustaining us through the extended days of summer.
It nurtures not only our crops but also our personal journey from darkness to light.
Summer serves as a beacon of hope, illustrating how our inner light can illuminate distant corners of the world and inspire others.
Just as the Sun nurtures us, we too can nurture those around us.
It's a season for self-improvement, learning to radiate light and find purpose in our path, even amidst uncertainty.
This natural cycle embodies new beginnings transitioning into a period of ambiguity, where anxiety and worries may surface.
Major changes can unearth old energies, allowing darkness to cloud our minds. Summer encourages us to embrace faith, dispel darkness with light, and trust in our ability to rise each day, akin to the Sun.
By honoring this day of light, we initiate a phase of heightened awareness that extends throughout the summer until the Fall Equinox.
we shall connect with all of nature’s elements in the forest and celebrate this changing season outside of us and within.
