Summer Solstice,
Aligned Radiance The summer solstice is a potent time to remember you are light.
The brilliant sun in our solar system is but a glimmer of the light that is inside you.
Let's invite this beautiful ally,
Our sacred sun,
To assist us in fully embodying our own limitless brilliant inner light.
Always make yourself comfortable,
Sitting with a straight spine if possible.
Become aware of your precious heart.
Can you let it open all the way,
Or even just a smidge more?
You don't have to know how.
All you need is to be willing to allow your heart to open,
To allow your light to flow,
Allow your radiance to shine.
Many of us wisely learned to close our hearts at some point in time when we felt unsafe.
That may have really helped us to survive.
But right now,
In this moment,
You are here.
You are alive.
And you are limitless.
Whatever your circumstance,
In this moment,
Breathe in.
As you breathe,
Feel the sun in our solar system bowing to you.
With every inhale and every exhale,
Begin to sense our sun,
That brilliant orb of light,
That sacred aspect of the divine,
Coming closer and closer,
And centering just above your crown,
At whatever distance feels most comfortable for you.
As you inhale now,
See,
Sense,
Feel your whole being,
Filling with the light of the sun.
Every atom,
Every cell.
Its very own brilliant sun.
Continue to breathe until your whole being is illuminated as a universe of countless suns.
Beautiful.
Now that you are so at one with the light of your limitless essence,
Every inhale creates exponentially more suns of light within you.
Begin to allow these brilliant suns to spill out on the exhale into the space around you,
Mixing the air with your light.
Every beat of your heart is like a grower of suns.
Every inhale births more light in your heart.
And every exhale allows that light to fill your whole world with light.
Your home filled with light.
All your loved ones bathed in light.
Your neighborhood awash in light.
Your work blessed in light.
Your places of recreation dancing in light.
All of nature now lighting up from the suns,
Radiating from you and mirroring back your light.
So much light.
So much light.
Now that light of its own accord expands out throughout the world.
Every place,
Every person,
Every animal and plant,
All living beings.
Every shadow becomes a magnet for this light.
And every single person,
Place,
Space and being the light touches,
Causes the light to grow brighter and brighter and brighter.
Rest here,
Radiate here as light.
Just be light for a little while,
Nothing to do but shine.
What fun,
What wonder,
What awe,
What grace.
Does the light wish to radiate through you today?
May the source of light that you truly are shine and sing and dance and create and bless through you today.
Peace and love and many,
Many blessings to you,
For you and through you today and always.
