SOLSTICE DREAMING PREPARATION
On the Solstice of the 21st December, wherever you are in the world, spend some time on the land. Meet the wild waters and the winds, be with the wide-open sky and the soil beneath your feet. If you are in the city, spend some time with the park or by the river.
Ceremony
Before you sleep on the night of the 21st December
Bring a vessel of soil and a seed to your bedside and light a candle
Soften your gaze on the fire’s flickering
Connect to the part of you who is ‘the one who dreams’
Create a heartfelt intention to listen to the dreaming of the earth
Sleep
Notice the images and sensations in your body as sleep enfolds you
While you drift across the border between waking and sleeping, carry your intention with you and plant it in the dreaming lands
On waking...
As you emerge from the dreaming, stay soft and receptive
Hold space for the dream-drifts to rise from the deep mystery of the dreaming
Feel the dreams and images rise through your body and into waking world
Remember
Reach out to catch the edges of your dream whisps
Record your dream. If you like, you can make a voice note, write, draw, journal, and create relationship with your dream
Gently plant your seed into the dream soil by your bedside
Share
Carry your seeded dream soil outside, or to a plant pot, and plant it in the dreaming earth
We’ll come together on zoom at 9am - 10am GMT / 10 pm - 11pm NZDT / 1am-2am PST & share dreams together. Bring art materials if you feel to. All welcome.
