Winter Solstice 2009
Yesterday was a special day for us. The shortest day of the year....
We put some time into cleaning and decorating the inside of our little bus. And then, a little food prep for our gathering. And we planted our tomato seeds!
Even though we were hot and sweaty all day long, last night was the coolest night we had in a long time....
Our friends Heather, Denise and Jorge came over to celebrate with us. We made a sweet little fire on the beach and celebrated the longest, darkest night with ceremony and laughter and stories and getting to know each other better. We even had sparklers as we wrapped it up on the beach.... And we had a beautiful soundtrack (the waves of the Pacific) and a lovely backdrop (Grandmother Moon and Jupiter....)
Sitting around a sacred fire, sharing our prayers of gratitude, remembering our family and friends.... We truly felt connected to it all. And now, Winter!
