The Winter solstice is the day with the shortest period of daylight and longest night of the year as well as the darkest day of the year.

After the winter solstice, the sun stays out a little longer each day!
Blessing:

Face the south with one arm up and the other palm open to receive

To The Winds of the South

Great Serpent

Mother of the Life giving waters

Wrap your coils of light around me

Remind me of how to let go and shed old ways of being

Teach me to walk the way of beauty

Face the west with one arm up and the other palm open to receive

To The Winds of the West

Mother Jaguar

Support me as I see my own fears

Teach me how to transform my fears into love

Remind of how to live with impeccability (guiltlessness)

May I have no enemies in this lifetime or next

Face the north with one arm up and the other palm open to receive

To the Winds of the North

Royal Hummingbird

Ancient Ones

Teach me about your endurance and your great joy

Come to me in the dreamtime

With honor I greet you

Face the east with one arm up and the other palm open to receive

To the Winds of the East

Eagle or Condor

Great visionary, remind me to lead from my pure heart

Teach me to soar to new places, to fly wing to wing with Spirit

Hands you your chest

To the stillness within, Galactic Source, beautiful Creator,

Which is everywhere at once

May everything be known

As the light of mutual love

Place one palm on the earth and the other arm up

Mother Earth- Pachamama

I pray for your healing

Let me soften into your wisdom

May I take great care of you so that my children and my children’s children

may witness the beauty and abundance you offer me today

Raise both arms to the sky

Father Sun, Grandmother Moon, to the Star nations

Great Spirit- you who are known by a thousand names

And you who are the unnamable One

Thank you for bringing me here at this time

Close the Ceremony

When you have finished your ceremony, sacred space must be closed. This can be done silently or spoken aloud, but it must be intentional. Thank the serpent, jaguar, hummingbird and eagle for their wisdom. As you release their energies back to their four directions, take a few deep breaths, acknowledge yourself back in the space you are in and witness any changes in your being. Take any inspiration gleaned from your sacred space and share them with the earth, your family and your community.
