On this, the longest night,
may we pause.
May we release
the scars we carry,
the wounds we have held too long.
May we remember
that even in darkness,
light softly awaits,
gentle, patient, unwavering.
May we, like bare trees, remain open,
limbs outstretched to the sky,
letting the wind move through us
as a quiet hymn.
May it sing of endings,
whisper of beginnings,
reminding us that every night folds
into morning,
and every heart can rise again.
May we bend toward the light.
May the dark teach us patience.
May hope root deep,
so when the sun returns,
we bloom, breathe, awaken.
May we trust that tonight, though hushed,
the world is not empty.
It holds a tender promise,
of warmth yet to come,
of hearts yet to mend,
of days yet to be born.

A Winter Solstice Blessing
The winter solstice is a sacred time,
infused with quiet magic and returning light.
It is a moment when the universe, in its infinite kindness,
awakens our hearts to tender and brighter possibilities,
rekindling the light of hope within our souls
as a new cycle of light slowly begins.
In this holy pause between darkness and dawn,
we are invited to release,
to loosen our grip on old patterns, heavy sorrows,
and lingering wounds that we may continue to carry.
With open hands and gentle hearts,
we step forward,
cradling the promise of brighter, more hopeful beginnings.
May all who have known loss or disappointment
find comfort in this peaceful turning.
May the light, though small at first,
guide us faithfully through the darkest days,
reminding us that even the longest night
must yield to morning.
As we give thanks for all that has nourished us,
every lesson, every kindness, every tenderness
that shaped our year,
we honor the path that brought us here.
And in gratitude,
we begin again,
walking onward with renewed hope,
gentle anticipation,
and the quiet courage
to welcome the year ahead.

For everyone struggling
through this festive period,
I see you.
For those of you who have lost
a treasured loved one,
I feel you.
Sometimes the memories
run too deep
and Christmastime brings
all those heartfelt feelings
to the fore.
A photo , a scent, a song,
all have the power to
take us back to happier times,
bygone Christmases, where
everyone was present
and everything felt perfect.
If we could converse
with the missing ones,
One thing is for sure,
They would say
'Enjoy it for me'
So, let's hang the tinsel
let's deck the halls and
lay an extra place
at the table
With them in mind.
Raise a glass and
remember all who are missing
From the table..
You remain in our hearts
Always ...

The previous Moons have not been easy. Being highly emotionally charged, they have exposed our shadows, leaving us feeling vulnerable and, at times, even raw. Now the healing practice of Mercy calls to us.

One definition of displaying mercy is to treat those in distress with compassion. In this Moon, we’re encouraged by Creator to treat each other as one family. This may seem an especially difficult challenge during this time of tremendous division. However, this is certainly the kind of moment when mercy is needed the most. Mercy, used as a spiritual practice, requires several qualities; I will talk about three of them here.

First, you must be able to put yourself in another's moccasins. The exercise of empathy gives you the ability to see and feel beyond yourself, leading you to see life through the eyes of another person. However, this doesn’t mean you take on the emotions or distress of that person. On the contrary, you remain in a centered place of mind and spirit, feeling able to “hold space" for another - a place of safe non-judgment. We bestow a powerful healing experience by this practice, namely letting someone know that they truly have been "seen."

Mindful action is another expression of our practicing mercy. Swooping in as the rescuer - no doubt being the wise choice in extreme circumstances or emergencies - is tempting but should not be your default go-to. Instead choose to “Listen with the Heart” (and mind); it is the right choice in most cases that call for help. Be aware that what you think a person wants may not really be what that person truly needs. Activate your empathy and make sure your act of kindness both empowers and preserves the dignity of those you seek to aid.

Lastly, the demonstration of Mercy requires courage. This is especially true when you choose to advocate for or show compassion to people who are marginalized, or for those beings who cannot speak for themselves. Standing up for them is the sign of an evolved soul, someone who will give a voice to the unheard, and who will bravely offer protection in a heartless age when so many people choose to carry on comfortably with their own lives, pretending not to see who most needs attention..

In this time of tension and conflict, we are called upon to embody - and generously bestow - this timeless sacred blessing. The quality of Mercy reminds us of the Divine nature of our very human spirit, even as it magically heals our soul.

From my friend Priscilla Bengtson. 🙏

When we hate the people we believe are creating harm, we become the hater.

It doesn’t matter if we feel justified.
It doesn’t matter if we believe we are on the right side.
When we step into hatred, we match the vibration of hate, and that energy starts to move through us. We lose the clarity, compassion, and higher perspectives that raise consciousness.

We can hold truth.
We can stand for what we believe is right.
We can set boundaries and standards.
And we can still choose not to become what we are resisting.
That is where real spiritual discipline lives.

What we focus on expands.

We know what we want because we experience what we don’t want.

Contrast is part of the human experience. However, when we put our attention on what we do not want, when we speak it, protest it, fight it, we feed it energetically.

It’s not that awareness is wrong.
It’s where we linger that matters.

The rallies and protests focusing on “No Kings"...

Millions of people joined with a genuine desire for equality and freedom. But the focus was still on the thing being rejected. The energy was anchored in “no”, not in what people wished to create instead.

And energy follows attention.

If we want peace, we must speak peace.
If we want unity, we must practice unity.
If we want a world that honors sovereignty and dignity, we must place our focus and intention there.

Acknowledge what you don’t want.
Then shift your focus to what you choose to create.

Instead of fighting the old, turn your attention toward the new.
Instead of matching the vibration of anger or hate, hold the frequency of clarity, compassion, and vision.

Each of us influences the collective field more than we realize.

One choice at a time.
One thought at a time.
One moment of presence at a time.

This is how vibration rises.
And as always, it begins within us.
