New Worlds of Body, Mind & Spirit Since 1901
| Color of the day: Purple
Incense of the day: Sandalwood Today we celebrate the longest day of the year. In most places, this is the time of summer's most beautiful bounty of flora and fauna. The night is alive with sounds; the air is filled with birdsong. To honor this time of abundance, for now the days will grow shorter, assemble a bouquet of wildflowers, flowers from your garden, or flowers or a plant from a store. Place the flowers or plant somewhere in sight all day. If you don't have a garden of your own, use a plant or flowers to represent the abundance of the season. Focus on the abundance and beauty of the flowers and plants; consider how they were cultivated-where they were grown, and how. Give thanks to farmers and growers for providing for the rest of us, or, if you have a garden of your own, use this blessing to bring abundance: Mother Earth, thank you for your nurturing body, the water of your veins, the air of your breath. Father Sun, Thank you for your warmth. May this abundant season bring sweet yield in the months to come. Tonight, we celebrate life! |
