The Most Sacred Times of the Year for Spiritual Renewal
September 22, 2024 |
Greetings magical people! As we journey through the year, there are certain moments when nature offers us the most potent opportunities for spiritual renewal. In this article, we will explore the Solstices, the Scorpio season, and the significance of our personal birthdays. Join us as we delve into the mysteries of these sacred times. Learn how to work with them, not against them. Wishing for summer in winter may cause you to miss winter’s blessings. In Iceland, everything appears like a fairytale due to the intense energy. The water is much more intense when it’s cold or frozen, but it becomes lazy when it is warm. So do we sometimes, so balance and get an ice cream!
1. Sacred Time for Spiritual Renewal: Solstices and the Sun’s Power
“Just remember in the winter
Far beneath the bitter snow
Next after this publicity
Lies the seed that with the sun’s love
In the spring becomes the rose”
The winter solstice is a powerful reminder of resilience and the hope that persists even in the darkest times. It symbolizes the promise that, no matter how long the night lasts, the sun will always rise again. As the Winter Solstice arrives, the sun begins a fresh cycle. Casting its light into the darkness, it nurtures the life that’s just waiting to grow. This process is reflected in the natural world: seeds buried deep in the Earth gradually emerge, drawn out by the sun’s life-giving rays.
With the Summer Solstice on the horizon, it’s a time to celebrate. Not just the sun’s nourishing light but also the light that resides within each of us. During this time, the sun reaches its highest point in the sky, giving us the longest day of the year. The sun’s cycle mirrors our own lives, representing the natural flow of energy that moves inward and outward. This Solstice encourages us to turn inward, to seek the nourishment necessary for growth and evolution. It’s a moment to pause and allow the energy cultivated in Spring to fully bloom. This season represents the peak of vitality and energy, a time when the body’s yang energy also reaches its height.
The equinox represents the middle between the winter and summer solstices. The Spring Equinox marks a balance between day and night, symbolizing spiritual renewal and new beginnings. The Autumn Equinox also signifies balance, focusing on gratitude, harvest, and preparation for winter.
During Scorpio season, the energy is intense. It’s a time for the death of the ego, the rebirth of the soul (spiritual renewal), and, if survived, the emergence of new spiritual powers. If this energy is used correctly, you can dive deep into the darkest places and bring them to the surface. Allow the excess to be dissolved by the light. Scorpios, under the rule of Pluto, the planet of transformation and the hidden, have an innate talent. They uncover what others try to keep secret. Their intuition is sharp and penetrating, allowing them to see through deception with ease. When a Scorpio gives you that knowing glance, it’s because they’ve already pieced together the truth. Their intuitive sense is like a protective shield, guiding them through the intricacies of relationships and the unknown with confidence.
No wonder Halloween is celebrated in this season, it’s the finding out season! It feels almost like Scorpio’s poison running through the body, making you stronger while fighting it. Of course, powers you never knew you had may arise and stay with you for the rest of your life. Our connection with ourselves is being tested—how much of your soul’s resources can you access in times of tribulation? Halloween is a time when the veil between the physical world and the spiritual realm is thin. It’s a powerful time for connecting with ancestors, honoring them, and the cycle of death and rebirth.
3. Your Birthday and Venus
Did you know that your birthday symbolizes your personal new year? Since our lives are in sync with the natural changes, your birthday also carries significance. You might already sense this transformative energy a few days before and after your birthday. Thinking it’s just excitement for the celebration? Well, it’s not. This is the best time for you to set intentions for the coming year. Reflect on your most personal desires—how have they evolved since last year? Your spiritual mission may reveal itself, or the next chapter of it. You can receive the clearest guidance from your inner guides on how to move forward.
For those looking to enhance their manifestation power, it’s wise to check when Venus will appear in the sky on your birthday. When Venus is the morning star, the early hours become the most powerful time of the day, offering heightened energy for new beginnings and balance. As the evening star, Venus harnesses the energies of the night, allowing for accelerated manifestation. Create something out of nothing, even overnight! The twilight hour, when the sky glows with that deep, intense blue, is often the most powerful time. Use this moment to connect and balance the seen with the unseen.
Use the days of the year when everyone celebrates something. This creates a lot of energy for manifestation and helps tapping into the universal consciousness. You do not have to give attention to the same cause as everyone. Don’t dismiss others’ beliefs either, if their intention comes out of love. Align the energy to your personal mission, add something to the crowd by fulfilling your task!
