In the North, as the Sun enters Capricorn 0° 00’00” on 20 December’24 @ 23:20:35 HST (04:20:35 EST on 21 December’24), we experience the Shortest Day & the Longest Night of the Year. A Solstice Portal. A Solstice Gateway. A significant moment of the midway point of the darkest part of the year. In the days to follow, the night begins to shorten as the light of the day begins to lengthen.
At each Solstice & Equinox Portal, the invitation for Self to connect with the rhythmic essence of nature, within & without, is exponentially intensified as Mother G’aia enters her next cycle.Â
During the Winter, she pauses, rests, & enters into a stillness, into meditation, as she prepares for the birth of Spring. As her children, we are invited to connect to her energies, to the energies of nature, to Life, to the Inner Essence of Self. To go within the darkness, to honor the shadow, to pause, to Reflect. To get intentional about what Self is Releasing to make space for the aspects of Self that are ready to be Birthed.
Significant to this Winter Solstice 2024 Portal energy, we are currently experiencing several aspects of consciousness in retrograde, a phase a deep inner-reflection.Â
-Mercury, recently exiting retrograde & currently in recovery shadow phase, in Sagittarius, we access to the Sacred Bonfire energy of the Ultimate Truth Speaker. We can utilize this energy by sitting in reflection mode, writing down mistruths about self & burning the paper to symbolize the release.
-Mars together with Varuna (All-Seeing Eye) is currently retrograde in Leo, and we are experiencing Life Force energy permeating the physical body & guiding us to be more attuned to movements we are making, Or could make?Â
Jupiter, currently retrograde in Gemini, is further expanding the collective consciousness of the Brilliance that each Soul is here to express. As an exercise, we can collectively & personally envision the future that we desire to experience. And so it will Be! Â
-With Uranus (Thunderbolt), also retrograde, together with Albion (Thunderclap) & Algol (Third Eye of Medusa) in the consciousness of Taurus, we are currently undergoing powerful electric impulses igniting the Tree of Life. What codes are we ready to experience when the Thunderclaps ignite the ethers with new Light?
Chiron (the Wounded Healer) & Eris (the Inner Awakener) currently retrograde together in Aries, the divine spark of creation. This is potentially highlighting old, outdated, limiting beliefs & patterns that have caused pain, and opening wound points so that Self can recognize more about self. Within each wound lies deep wisdom and direct access to Vital Life Force Energy. What are You willing to Heal?
Other significant celestial alignments to the Winter Season are the ongoing:
Mars & Pluto bridge until April 2025 : A bridge of that is encouraging the shedding & releasing of the many Fear-Based layers of old identities, deep within the Ancestries. Â
The last of three Mercury Jupiter oppositions on December 26, ’24: Has aided in the expansive awareness of the Belief systems located within the Mental Body to promote the restoration of Clarity, of Truth. As the outdated beliefs arise, Self can then choose to Observe & consciously Delete. This final opposition is manifesting the bridge that takes us there.
In the moment, on this stage, in this Life, we are experiencing a Healing process beyond measure within Human Consciousness.
Each moment is a moment to restore, to renew, to allow Divine Consciousness into the Present. The potentiality of what can be Birthed is immeasurable when Self allows Self to dive deep into the stillness of the Multidimensional aspects of the True Nature of Soul, of I AM oneness with everything.
This season may we dive deep into the stillness, allow the restoration of Divine Consciousness, Love & Light.
