#BONUS Solstice Meditation 2025 – Sun Stands Still – by Manda Scott
Here is a meditation for the Solstice – the moment when the sun stands still.
It is suitable for both the summer and winter Solstice (northern and southern hemispheres respectively)
You don’t have to do this at the exact moment of stillness: it’s the connection that counts, the marking of the turning point from days lengthening to shortening (or vice versa if you’re in the southern hemisphere). This is a moment of reflection and a re-affirming of our connection to the web of life.
You don’t have to limit yourself to one pass through – please feel free to explore this more deeply than one single iteration. If you want other, similar journeys, they are a whole host in the Accidental Gods Membership Programme.
