Litha is right around the corner, and here are some ways I will be celebrating. It is limited since I am in self-isolation right now after traveling, but we will be making it work!
Reds, oranges, yellows, golds, greens! I will be wearing all my gold jewelry and dressing up in my flowy red floral dress or my bright green dress to celebrate.
Grill out! Grilling a steak, delicious summer squash, corn, and sliced peaches for a kale salad. Peaches, lemons, oranges, yellow vegetables are all typical to celebrate Litha.
Although I do not have any lavender or other herbs, I will be using lots of lemon and honey in all my beverages to celebrate. Thinking of making a honey lemon peach sangria to celebrate!
Pick wildflowers, make a flower crown, meditate in the sun and soak it up, have an outdoor picnic, take a nature walk, try cloud divination, grill out, make a bonfire, leave sweet offerings for the fae.
There are a bunch of beautiful tiny white wildflowers blooming around me, and while I would love to get a variety to dress my altar, since I am working with so little it will be primarily decorated with these flowers, dandelions, and the only two candles I could find in the house! Mirrors are great for this as well.
Write down problems on paper and burn it in the fire - Litha is a fire sabbat!
When taking sips of summer wine/beer/sangria, dedicate the first and last sip to nature and the sun. We are celebrating it all today!
Midsummer Manifestation Ritual
Make a list of everything you wish to manifest during the next six months.
Be complete – include things related to career, personal issues, and other factors like clarity, confidence, and fun. After sunset, light a candle of your choice. Place a vase of flowers you like next to the candle.
“I gather in the power of this day of greatest light and call in the guardians of fire, earth, air, and water to bring the last grace of power in light to manifest my desires in the coming harvest. I ask that this be
"I affirm that I am able and willing to allow these wishes to manifest and I participate in the miracle of
creation and with faith. So mote it be.”
Allow the candle to burn until you go to sleep. Celebrate the energy of the evening in some way –play music, raise a glass, allow yourself some indulgence. From Hearth and Home Witchery”
Garden Prayer for Litha- @one-of-the-birds
Small plants, leaves and buds, growing in the soil. O fiery sun, may your rays of light and warmth bless us with abundance, and allow these plants to blossom with life.
Litha Prayer to the Sun - @one-of-the-birds
The sun is high above us shining down upon the land and sea, making things grow and bloom. Great and powerful sun, we honor you this day and thank you for your gifts. Ra, Helios, Sol Invictus, Aten, Svarog, you are known by many names. You are the light over the crops, the heat that warms the earth, the hope that springs eternal, the bringer of life. We welcome you, and we honor you this day, celebrating your light, as we begin our journey once more into the darkness.
Hope this helps! Blessed be!
