Join SSP Board President Jaime Meyer for a Summer Solstice Ceremony, calling in the South on the Medicine Wheel.
Jaime will guide those gathered through the making of an offrenda, a beautiful ceremony using a series of flowers, prayers, rattle and singing – all designed around the intention of empowering your inner “turning point.” You can prepare for the ceremony by asking yourself what turning point you are at in your own life, what you have been afraid putting into action and calling into being. (Confusion, ambivalence and self deprecation are forms of fear that are like a wet blanket thrown over the vision for yourself that is actually right there under the blanket. We will address some of this in the brief teaching portion of the ceremony). Each participant will join in the making of prayers for themselves, their loved ones, and the world. Together, we will raise a solstice prayer of big love!
Please note that Jaime is burning the offrenda bundle on Friday, June 21st as it is pouring rain tonight on the 20th! Prayers from the live event and the playback participants will be included as Jaime notes in the video.
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.
