altar for Equal to the Darkness hosted by Poetry Forge 12/14/22

dear Solstice, dear Corner, dear Home in the dark,

Someone once offered me a field of candles.

She wrote her offering to me when I was feeling very sad about a loss.

It has stayed with me.

Next to the clementine sits the bulb

Next to one year sits the next.

Upstairs soup is made

Downstairs a painting.

I light candles

And hang yellow flowers

I tend to my small corner and hope it will give way to an ocean.

How are you supporting yourself on this darkest day?

Who are you giving to and what are you gifting?

I am grateful for the night

And that my babies now say the word moon

Thank you all for your eyes, time, minds and hearts

For being part of my world

And if you desire to find a simple way to mark the end of this year and the start of the next, click on 2023 Ritual & Invocation Card or scroll down the the bottom of this email. This is also a nice gift for the person in your life who values beauty, reflection and introspection.

Happy Solstice

May winter provide you with what she does best.

2023 Ritual & Invocation Card is created to support closure and cultivate personal vision as you step into the new year. 

​

You will receive the Ritual Map via email which will outline a simple ceremony that can act as your companion as you cross the threshold between one year and the next. You will be invited to create a minimal altar on the last night of 2022 and engage in a process of reflection the following morning, the first day of 2023. This ritual will support you in generating a personal invocation to honor yourself and set intentions for the coming year.

Once the ritual is complete and you have shared your invocation with me via email, I will create and send you a personal, handmade Invocation Card. This card will be a talisman and anchor for you to keep near as you move through the next rotation around the sun. 

​

This offering is for anyone looking to mark the transition from one year to the next with a simple but sacred gesture.
