The Winter Solstice this year is Dec. 21st. The Winter Solstice is the day of least daylight and in the northern hemisphere, is the start of the winter season. December is celebrated with many spiritual holidays, three of which are Christmas, Hanukkah, and Yule, that celebrate the coming of Light, and Enlightenment. It is a time when Light dispels darkness, bringing hope, guidance, and enlightenment.
We are living in a time of great change and transformation and it can feel very dark and chaotic – it feels like the winter blues already! It’s a perfect time to remember the Light that is coming onto the Earth, and the Light within us, that dispels the darkness with hope and guidance.
Earth is receiving a huge download of higher frequencies that are shifting us physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually to move into our higher potential. It is important to consciously absorb this higher divine light to assist us. But also, this Light is activating an already existing Light within us – the Divine Spark. We carry a piece of divine Source energy within us. This Divine Spark is the Light that personally guides us.
The Winter Solstice is a perfect time to consciously expand this inner Light – our inner star – and let its radiance encompass us in its intelligence and nurturing energy. It will center, comfort, and guide you during this time of massive changes. Much is falling apart that can not exist in the higher frequencies. It is depressing and feels like the end of the world – but remember, that with enthusiasm and innovation, we can create a much better world – the New Earth in fact, that can reflect the higher ideals of the Golden Age to come – the Aquarian Age. It is a time to hold a positive vision, to rise above the chaos and despair, and focus only on the higher ideals. These will be the solutions to our current woes.
By expanding your inner Light – you will also feel a greater confidence in your gifts, and inner wisdom. Your Divine Spark is your inner guiding star and its Light will empower you as you serve as a beacon to others lost in the darkness.
Here is a visualization that will help you expand your inner Light:
VISUALIZATION – Expanding the Light of your Divine Spark
To begin: Find a place where you will not be disturbed, and sit comfortably, shutting down your inner mental chatter and emotional noise, and settle into stillness. Visualize “plugging in” your vertical alignment of chakras – your “Pillar of Light” – to both sources (heaven and earth) of intelligence. Connect your vertical energetic alignment down into the Earth and the crystalline grid of the New Earth. Then, connect it upwards to Source energy (you can place the intention that it connects to God/Goddess, the Great Central Sun, or the Sun). You are now “plugged in” to higher energies to bring the new energy and divine wisdom fully into your reality. The bridge to these energies of heaven and earth is your heart.
You are now going to travel inwards to your heart sanctuary – a sacred space within your heart.
Visualize a white light trail before you and follow it as it leads to a door of white light to your heart sanctuary. Go through the door of white light into your heart sanctuary. You may find this space to be an indoor space or an outdoor space. As a neutral witness – take a look around at your space – what is the architecture or landscape like, any particular colors, sounds, feelings, or beings here? You place the intention of seeing your Divine Spark materialize here. Take a look at your Divine Spark and notice any particular colors radiating from it.
With intention, focus on this Spark and expand its Light. You can visualize the higher frequencies coming onto the Earth assisting you by activating this Light, causing it to grow and expand, making it more brilliant. Keep expanding its Light until it encompasses your whole body. How does this feel? Now expand this Light until it radiates beyond your body and fills your heart sanctuary with its Light. How does this feel? Now expand this Light to encompass your country, and eventually the whole Earth. How does this feel? From this perspective, can you see the Lights of others?
Now, you can bring this Divine Spark-Light back to a comfortable sized bubble. Give yourself some time to sit within this bubble and experience this Light. Feel the purity and beauty of your soul radiate – like a shining star!
