Solstice Messages

Can you feel it in the air? Today's solstice marks a turning point, a fresh start, the beginning of the change we've been feeling for some time now. Today feels like a punctuation mark at the end of a long, winding paragraph. All you've done over the past several months culminates now in a single instant, opening the way for something brand new and beautiful to begin.

Depending where you are in the world, this energy may hit differently, but it is no less potent. For those moving through the Winter Solstice, a restful feeling of hibernation is present.

Though the outside world gets so much busier this time of year with holidays, social events, travel, and many expectations placed on us, this does not change the core of our human nature. Our bodies need rest and loving care. It's okay to give this to ourselves.

If you've been feeling drained, depleted, down, or exhausted lately — you are not alone. It is normal for our bodies to require extra rest at this time. This year has been challenging for many, which can add an extra strain onto our bodies and minds. Though it can feel heavy, these feelings are asking to be honored and given space to move through us.

While this can be a joyful time of year, it can also be a difficult time of year for many. If you've been feeling sad, hopeless, anxious, or uncertain about the future — you are not alone there either.

These feelings often come in waves, hitting us when we least expect them. Whatever you're moving through is tailor-made. Trust your body, trust the process, and allow yourself to be present with the feelings. When we are present with our emotions without judging, resisting, or trying to change them, we give ourselves the opening to feel and release what we've been carrying for so long.

Regardless of how you're feeling — know that this season is opening you to the new experiences, opportunities, and blessings you've been dreaming of. The keys here are trust and time.

When we work on centering ourselves in the present moment and embracing the unknown rather than resisting it — this is where the magick happens.

When we hold positive beliefs and expectations without attachment to the outcome, this opens the doorway to our desires. Sinking deeper into the present moment, all the blessings that are already ours flood into our reality in perfect timing.

This process is simple — but this does not mean it's always easy. The mind can come in and try to intrude quite frequently.

A huge part of walking the path is learning to trust the twists and turns, even when they may not make sense to the logical mind.

This is exactly where we are right now — standing at the edge of the cliff, ready to leap into the great beyond with no idea what's awaiting us there. What we do with this golden moment is entirely in our hands.

Instead of fearing or expecting the worst: what if you imagined beautiful things coming your way? What if you allowed yourself to sink into the knowledge that you are loved and taken care of, affirming that nothing has gone wrong?

Whatever you are experiencing right now, you are right on track. No matter what it looks like, this moment is opening you further to what you truly desire.

You are standing on the precipice of your new life. How does it feel?

If you'd like to today, spend some time visualizing and feeling into your deepest dreams.

Take a moment to congratulate yourself. You deserve a round of applause for all you've accomplished this year and beyond.

For those who have been doing the work, you're about to enter your winning season. Give gratitude for all the blessings that are coming your way.

Sending love to you all,

Tawny
