Part Six: Winter Solstice Prayer Meditation


And you, Her children, She does not forget. You are not abandoned nor forsaken. Even now the Goddess labors to birth the Sun. Trust the laboring darkness, for the time of Awakening and Light comes. A time when burdens shall be lifted, and refugees welcomed. Grief will be healed, dreams reborn, and all of life renewed. The slumbering animals are dreaming of it. The seeds in hardened shells know the time and push forward through darkness, seeking light. Reach with your life toward the Mother as She reaches with unconditional love toward you, Her children.

The Winter Solstice promises new dreams, new hopes and new light...Be not afraid!

Will you help the light to be reborn? Do you, the people, hold the light in your hearts?
