- The Sacred Summer Solstice 🌄 An overview of Litha history, spirituality, mythology, traditions | Wheel of the Year Wisdom ✨🌿🌞 Welcome! This little overview video is bursting with summer solstice info. This is sort of a "Five Things to Know about the Summer Solstice" video (but it's really four things plus some beautiful affirmations haha). If you’re interested in Litha history, mythology, spirituality, and traditions from around the world, this one is for you!
Don't forget to stick around until the end of the video for some sweet Summer Solstice AFFIRMATIONS to make your season a bit more magical. The summer speaks to my soul… so I hope these words speak to yours! Lots of you have been asking for affirmations. Thank you for the inspiration! 🌿
I am still new to making these informational videos so please bear with me as I perfect the process of researching and producing these. ✨
Thanks for being here and for all of your support! A special thank-you to all my new channel members. I am truly honored. Happy Solstice, all! -Alison

That was lovely, and thank you! I love learning more about how different cultures celebrated these festivals. Celebrating the cycles of the seasons is so wonderfully grounding and helps us appreciate the bounty of Mother Nature. Blessed be!
Lovely, thank you Alison. I celebrate by waking up early, drinking herbal tea and reflecting on what I've accomplished in the first half of the year then thinking about what to let go of (embracing the light and dark). Then your lovely Solstice Yoga Flow followed by the Sabbat Rite. Bright blessings and thank you for your amazing channel, namaste from Spain
Thanks, Mary! I wanted a morning meditation - and yours is just right.
