Happy Summer Solstice!

We have arrived. After months of cold, dreary weather the sun has graced us with its presence (here in NYC). I am grateful. I came across a writing recently that caused me to stop and ponder its validity. A blogger stated that the solstice often comes with blessings in tow. She encouraged readers to reflect on the prior solstice and all the blessings that came with it. I spent some time in contemplation of this idea and came to the conclusion that she is correct.

Last Summer Solstice I was unemployed, sleeping in a relatives living room and engaged in a dating situation that was going nowhere. Within days of the last summer solstice, I was blessed with 2 competing job offers and a new ultra-loving relationship! And this summer solstice came bearing the gift of an apartment!

What is it about the solstice that makes it such a powerful time for manifestation? Perhaps the answer is found in the fact that this marks a time when the sun is at its zenith. In its fullness, it supports our fullness. At its apex, it supports our apex.

This is not only true for me. I’m sure that it is true for many of you as well. Feel free to share what gifts the Summer Solstice has brought you this year!
