Getting Ready for the Summer Solstice

Merry Meet!

So next Sunday is the Summer Solstice, a time when the sun is at it's height but will start losing it's power as we get ready to go into the dark half of the year. And while, leading up to Lammas, we don't feel it, the sun is started to move away from where we are. One of the things that I love to do is get my altar ready for the Summer Solstice. One of the things that I always recommend to those new to the path is to find out what candles, stones, and herbs are good for a certain Sabbath.

I recommend 13moons as they have a whole section on holidays. Another thing that I like to do is drink summery drinks that I believe are perfect for this time of the year. We sit back and enjoy ourselves. We enjoy the presence of the fairies and the little people. And we morn the loss of the sun as we move away from the Summer Solstice and get ready for Lammas.

We know that it will soon be time for us to get our houses ready for the cold weather that's just around the corner and drinking hot drink and eating hot foods. My advice is to just enjoy this time of the year, don't hurry up Lammas, and to think about all the wonderful things that you will be doing this summer. The warm weather doesn't last forever and it's time to enjoy it.

Blessed Be!!!!
