"With every new year, a new dawn comes- not only for the earth but also for us. And with a new day comes a new start- a chance to begin again. Now is the best time to start becoming the person we eventually want to be." -Dieter F. Uchtdorf

Summer Solstice 2021

Happy Solstice, y'all! This year's Summer Solstice unfolds under the auspices of a numerological 4. For that reason, consider the following meditative and ritual points of focus highly favorable - or at minimum, much easier to address:

Building solid foundations for yourself and your future

Spiritual, mental, and emotional fortitude

Ascertaining, building up or rebuilding one's sense of self

Fortifying one's health and stamina

Furthering your education, learning in general

Health and wellness

Grounding and centering

Choosing or furthering your occupational path

Any internal work undertaken during a Solstice should be given additional attention. Keep in mind that we also have a Full Moon coming up in a matter of days, so if you miss your window of opportunity today? Technically, you have not: the Full Moon takes place under a numerological 8, which is 4's more sophisticated, worldly (yet highly spiritual) cousin.
