I was a bit trepidatious because I knew I had to be willing to drop it if they said to drop it.

Maybe the vision is too big, too demanding, too… not meant for me.

I took a deep breath into my heart center, and asked, Should I go for it?

I didn’t get a flash of insight or a counter vision of more glory. My Soul didn’t say, “It shall be so, dear one!” No drama or date with destiny and Enya vibes.

I just heard this very clear response: Why not?!

It was lovely and invitational-like.

And I answered back, I mean right?! There’s no reason why not! Let’s do it.

And I think that was the most important part of that ceremony. The “Let’s do it” part. Let us do it.

I hugged the willow tree, and walked home, and I wrote out my vision in my very best handwriting. And I placed it on my altar.

Every day, I bring that vision into my heart and I do the Centering Practice with it.

SOLSTICES ARE POWERFUL TIMES FOR SETTING INTENTIONS

Summer and Winter Solstices are the year’s longest and shortest days—turning points of light. It’s a very sacred time to get closer to the light above and within us.

You can think of Solstices as portals when more light and nourishment get poured onto our intentions.

LIGHT IT UP

Honestly, this is one of my favourite things to do in my “work”:

Four times a year—every Solstice and Equinox—I lead a free group meditation. It’s about thirty minutes of guided visualization. It’s the most delicious heaping of light. It’s healing and energizing.

On SUNDAY, JUNE 21, I hope you’ll join me for this season’s meditation.

Think: nature imagery, golden prana, heart radiance, mountain-top clarity. Spacious heart space.

Thousands of people show up. We gather early in the day to set our intentions. Then we go back into our day more radiant. We get the best ideas dropping in. We sleep better. We’re lighter. Literally.
