The Winter Solstice marks the shortest day and the longest night of the year, a time for journeying into our inner darkness, connecting with our soul dream, and our vision for the year to come.
The Winter Solstice is a time of year that has been celebrated by peoples in these lands since prehistory; many of our ancient stone monuments are aligned with the Winter Solstice, including Newgrange and Stonehenge. It is believed that our ancestors celebrated the “rebirth of the Sun” at this time of year as a promise of renewal, that the days will get longer, the winter will pass, and the crops and food will return.
Although a traditional time of celebration, within the land, much is still dormant. Many seeds from the year past continue to dream quietly in the earth, holding all their potential and energy for the year to come. The trees, too, hold their energy in their roots, after dropping their leaves and bringing their focus deep within.
Similarly, we move to our more introspective selves at this time of year. This invites moments of reflection, on the year past, and a consideration of what we would like to do, and how we would like to be, in the year to come. This introspective, reflective time is not something that is made easy by our busy modern lifestyles, and so it is helpful during this time to give it some focus and attention within your practice.
I have been working in this way and with my Shamanic Drums to connect with the magic and wisdom of the seasons and festivals, for almost 5years now and it will be my honour to hold safe sacred space with you in ways that we can connect with the magick and sacredness of the Winter Solstice.
I will drum shamanically to connect and attune ourselves to the seasonal changes in the land, to remain connected and in tune with the wisdom and medicine this season brings, we will journey to connect with your Winter’s Dream.
The Shamanic Journey is a practice where the rhythm of the Drum guides you into an inner visionary landscape, for guidance and healing. We often journey with an intention or a question, with the hope of meeting a spiritual being in this landscape to give us the answer or guidance that we need.
As this is a time of going within, and connecting with the soul dream, the shamanic journey can be a powerful practice to meet this dream and receive guidance and direction on ways forward. Call on the spirit of the season, and journey within, supported by your guides and allies.
As Winter Solstice marks the point of death and rebirth in the wheel of the year – endings and new beginnings, this is a chance to journey with the drum with gratitude and reflection on the year past, and deeply connect with the beat of the drum to welcome the gifts and opportunities of the year to come.
