As we experience it from the Northern Hemisphere, Summer Solstice is a time when the Sun appears to ascend to the greatest height in the sky. As the intense upward springtime growth of leaves and flowers begin to subside, and pollination has taken place, the first fruits appear. As the fruit begins its ripening process, we are called to acknowledge what a generous gift this is from Earth. We are also awakened to the rhythmic cycle of life, death, and rebirth. Without fruiting, we would have no food. Without true food, we would have no true seed. Without true seed, this precious cycle would be broken, and it is upon this cycle that all life depends.
Let us celebrate Earth’s abundant blessings and commit to living in harmony with the rhythms of life.
