Summer Solstice Sun moves into Cancer
The solstice arrives on June 21, 2022 at 5:14 AM ET. . This marks the beginning of summer and is the longest day and shortest night of the year. This is the time to celebrate the Sun, in all its energy and power. This is the day that we embrace the return of the light and the beginning of Summer. It is a time of renewal and new beginnings. The Sun moves into the sign of Cancer, bringing the nurturing energy to grow our seeds and and our dreams. A solstice is an astronomical event that happens twice a year - at the beginning of summer and the beginning of winter. Solstice literally means ‘ Sun Stands Still’.This is the official start to the season of Summer.
The Sun is represented by fire and this is wonderful night to have a bonfire, to connect with nature and to gather with family and close friends to celebrate
Set out your crystals to get a special charge and wear bright, cheery colors to honor the beginning of summer season.
This is a time to set your intentions- just like a New Moon. Use the Law of Attraction- whatever you put your attention to starts being drawn to you- but you must focus your attention and then keep it focused in order for it to work. I like to do this with three lists-
Elimination list- write down everything that you do not want in your life.
Manifestation list - everything that you want or want to happen in your life
Gratitude list- write down everything that you are grateful for- no matter how big or how small
Take your time with these lists, add to them over a few days, read them daily to keep your attention. Be quiet with them and allow yourself to dream of all you want for the next year.

It is a time to stay centered and grounded.
