Summer Solstice: Friday June 21, 2013
The best day to place cleansed chrystals outdoors to charge in the light of the longest day of the year.
The beginning of summer is a time of purification and renewal. As the summer begins it is a good time to release what is not working in your life and to celebrate and make new commitments to what does. The Summer Solstice is an exceptionally good time to renew your energy and to see the divine in everyone and to recognize and celebrate the divinity within yourself.
This is a good time for couples to renew the bonds of love that brought them together.
For singles, it's a time to renew you commitment to find your true love.
