Summer Solstice on Maui
WRITING PROMPT:
Thoughts and journal prompts for the Summer Solstice and/or any time you are feeling CURIOUS to uplevel your day.
Solstice pre-dawn… It started with a sun and moon bath. I laid on my back as the moon was making space for the sun to rise. I closed my eyes, took deep breaths and let myself fully relax into the sand feeling the energy of Mother Earth beneath me.
I felt her fire, her strength, her gentleness, her steadiness in the constant change. I felt her giving Nature, her light transmuting darkness and infinite love and expansiveness.
I lay with her with my heart in a place of devotion and receptiveness. I then let the reflection of her seep deep into my spirit. I am her and she is me, and we are ONE. It was a peak moment of remembering for me of how powerful I am, how powerful we are. It reminded me of the cycles of growth.
So much has happened this year. So many changes. So much heartbreak and with it, immense growth and expansiveness and freedom. I got to know myself better this year and made some huge decisions that are still very much unfurling and unraveling so much of what was.
This year I stepped more fully into the truth of all I am becoming. I let go of some heavy anxiousness and started movement into courage. As I changed I started to see the world differently, in a new light and the possibilities began to open. I saw the needs in this current world shifting and my own inner compass shifting.
It has me creating in new ways…
As I lay there, these questions and practices emerged.
I invite you to get curious and ponder or write, and see what emerges for you:
Reflect on your inner fire, is it a tiny whisper or a roaring flame. Where do you feel powerful and fierce in your life? Where do you want to bring more fire in your life?
Is there anything that has completed its cycle, or that may be holding you back that you would like to burn away? Can you write it down and literally throw it in a fire, thanking it for protecting you when you needed it and making a commitment to let it go?
Now shift your energy to what you want. What are you calling in? What would you like more of? What decisions would you make to call it to you? What will it feel like once you have it? Feel that energy in your body of what it would feel like. Stay rooted in that feeling as long as possible and keep coming back to it. Where energy goes, energy floooows! By doing this, you are calling your want to you. Continue this practice throughout the day. Name it, feel it, flow with it. Yes, you got it.
