Light Returning – Winter Solstice
The days are continuing to grow darker, the daylight hours decreasing all the way to the 21st December, the Winter Solstice. The darkest day in the year and yet it’s the pivot point, from this day, the saying goes that the days will grow a ‘cock’s foot’ lighter each day!
This day holds great potetency, it is a sacred time inviting rest and reflection, a time to look into the dark places within us, what do we not wish to see? what parts of us are we keeping in shadow and what would happen if we welcomed all of who we are? Bringing all of us out into the light, inviting us into a greater experience of our wholeness.
Lucia and Jo-Anne welcome you in circle on Winter Solstice night, 21st December 2022, where we can spend time in conscious community to reflect, to reveal, to re-imagine through the power of ritual, mantra and shamanic journey. We will drop into our ‘second sight‘, reflecting on the year gone by and dreaming the new year from a place of light.
No previous experience is required for this class.
What you will need
- Wear clothes in which you can move easily

The Empty Dark
Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer
Oh let me, too, be willing to sit in the empty dark
and let the darkness enter me.
Let me not pretend to know how it will be.
Let me lose my plans, though it terrifies me.
Let me not imagine any better time
to practice than now.
Let me be the bowl that sings when touched,
the bowl that is content with its own stillness.
If I want answers, let me sit with my longing.
If I want lessons, let me find them right here.
And if it is dark, let me not run from the dark,
but lean into it. And if it is light,
let me long for the light. Let it enter me.
Let me not pretend to know how it will be.
