SUMMER SOLSTICE WHOLE BODY CONCENTRATION THE SUMMER SOLSTICE WHOLE BODY CONCENTRATION We are the children of the SUN and our alignment with the elements is of paramount importance. twice a year the sun is marked by how far away or how close it is thus causing the seasonal changes. The summer solstice is marked by the amount or Sunlight hours in one day. The first day of summer for the U.S. is June 21 and we will experience an extra long day and short night in other parts of the world the solstice is marked in the middle of December. The Sun presents the element, FIRE. While ALL elements of this existence (Earth, Wind, Water, & Fire) are essential, as they complement one another and truly nurture life and sustain life. Fire is the element that is active. Fire is a do-er. Have you ever watched a fire burn? It works and spreads with ease! And it is captivating, it takes your attention. Fire is is also associated with the direction WEST for transforming and changing old patterns and habits. In Ancient Kemet (what is today referred to Egypt, but the true name is Kemet), the Summer Solstice was the most important day of the year. When the sun was highest (this is the quality that marks the ability to allow the sun to shine for the longest amount today), it meant that the Nile River was beginning to rise as well. The rising of the Nile River represented the soon to come floods (The element WATER) which would feed and nourish the crops of the Nile Valley and feed a community. This time of the year was also marked as teh time when the solar deity, Heru (aka Horus in the English language), defeated the deity of darkness, Set. This defeat is thought to be linked to rebirth and resurrection, and with this order and fertility, hence the Nile floods come and restore life to the Nile Valley and the life of the crops bring continuous life to the Nile Valley people, and so on. This day is also the day of Ra, the embodiment of the Sun. soulistichealing.blogspot/2008/06/summer-solstice-2008-a...
