Honoring The Day

Hi and Merry Meet,
Today I made sure to do a few things to honor the gods and recognize the solstice.

I took a long solitary hike through the woods. I absorbed the sights, sounds, and smells. I sat and looked at a river lazily rolling by. I even hugged a tree (ok, I had to or I would have slid down the steep hillside I was traversing).

When I came home, I rushed out to my garden to harvest some light pink roses, chives, sage, and pink rose buds.

Tonight I will leave a dish of milk out as a gift for the fairies around my yard.

I hope you had a wonderful first day of summer too!
Blessed be,
Autumn

Happy Summer Solstice!

Hi and Merry Meet,
Happy Summer Solstice! I hope you and your have a wonderful day today!

I am going to go outside today as long as the rain holds off because today is our school's outside fair! Lots of fun games for the kids and of course ice cream at the end. I just hope our weather holds out so the kids can have a great day outside.... ok, I want to be outside all day too!

After work today, I am going hiking/caching to enjoy nature and reflect on the start of summer. Tonight Husband and I are going to grill for dinner and then I will set up my altar for a ritual.

Have a very Happy Summer Solstice!
Blessed be,
Autumn
