SSP SUMMER SOLSTICE CEREMONY

SSP Board Member Dr. Karen Ward and John Cantwell of Ireland will do a Summer Solstice Ceremony on Friday, June 20th at 3:00 PM Mountain Time. This a one of four quarterly Medicine Wheel Ceremonies available only to members.

Join SSP Board Member Dr Karen Ward and her husband John Cantwell, from Sli An Chroi in Ireland, for the celebration of Grianstad, Solstice in our first language, Irish Gaelic, literally meaning ‘Sun-stop’. This is the peak of the Sun’s highest climb into maximum light when the hours and minutes of daylight will remain almost exactly the same. Summer Solstice is a tremendously significant moment, personally, collectively and cosmically. Imbas is an ancient Irish word referring to divine illumination and we still use this word for the profound healing ritual of bringing light where there was once trom or heaviness/density in the energy field of a human. Join us to hear about significant episodes which began at Summer Solstice, in our native mythology and receive Imbas – a naturally occurring light bath in our cosmos.  A powerful yet gentle way to usher in the height of Summer in glorious community.

HOW TO PREPARE

Create sacred ceremonial space in a quiet place where you will not be disturbed by other people or loud noises. Make a small altar, light a candle and have your drum, and rattle available, as well as paper and pen. Darken your room if possible and allow yourself to be fully present.
