Radical Reposts: Winter Solstice Poems and Prayers






A
lthough the 3rd Annual November Prayer and Thanksgiving Month has ended, those who plan Winter Solstice celebrations want to consider using some of these prayers and meditations for your ceremonies. If you’ve never done a winter solstice gathering, here’s a how-to repost, Fully Seasoned: Astrology and Ritual.These are my favorite poems to write every year, as I love the transition of winter into the Inner Time. Early Solstice Blessings!


God, Goddess, All That Is:
Help me see in the dark …

Great Spirit,
You are glue that joins us all
the gravity that binds us …

In your heartbeat
this darkest night
in the quiet
lies the pulse of peace …

Prayer for Winter Solstice 2012 (14-Dec-12)
Winter asks a lot:
the most drastic changes
severe conditions
inner work
quiet …

A Winter Solstice Poem
In a moment so magical
it happens only twice a year:
the Sun balanced light and dark
so perfectly
it stopped.
It invited us
to do the same …

Silent Night (17-Dec-14)
A Winter Solstice Meditation
Silence.
Holy.
Between your thoughts
a winter without words …


Look for the 2015 Winter Solstice poem later this month ….
