Honoring the seasons has been a part of my personal spiritual practices for more than 20 years. Connecting with the nuances of the eight holidays associated with the Celtic Calendar or the Wheel of the Year, has been a way for me to access my spiritual practices, throughout the year, with a specific theme to each event.
Below are some suggestions for celebrating the season of Summer Solstice which happens on June 21st this year. Enjoy the turn of the wheel of the seasons!
