Happy Litha-Summer Solstice, when the sun is at his peak, a fiery day… ~The sun, Helios, is all seeing (pantepoptes), when asked he confesses to Demeter that he has witnessed the abduction of Persephone by Hades. The sun reveals the beauty of  the natural world as it really is, and self-awareness showing mercy to those who have faced the cold too long and have paralysed, the flowers bloom underneath the therapeutic sun, we enjoy the playfulness of the sun rays on our skin and something awakens inside of us, we long for the long summer days. The sun can be proven  ruthless at other times, showing also the decay and responsibilities, the gap or deprivation, it burns the uninitiated one…one cannot be forced to face the sun, but introduced to it slowly…provided material or spiritual sunglasses…the sun can open eyes, too much sun at once can blind…Jacques Derrida  in his “Memoirs of the blind” claims that “the sun resembles the eye, the most “helioform” of all sense organs to the intelligible sun, that is, to the Good.“~ Vera Bousiou Helios on his Chariot (detail) by Hans Adam Weissenkircher
