SUMMARY:Summer Solstice (MI) 2023
DESCRIPTION:https://www.trybooking.com/events/landing/1158894\n\nAlso known
  as Litha or Midsummer\, SUMMER SOLSTICE is celebrated all over the world 
 as it is the longest day of the year.\n\nMany cultures celebrate and give

 ilt to watch the sunrise and sunset during the solstices.\nDuring the Summ
 er Solstice we celebrate the energising light of the Sun and the light wit
 hin each of us. The cycle of the Sun represents the cycle of our lives and
  reflects the natural flow of energy moving inward and outward.\n\nThrough
  honouring this sacred day of light\, we energetically set in motion a per
 iod of awakening in our consciousness which lasts all summer\, until the A
 utumn Equinox.\nSummer is the time to develop faith in our life\, squash t
 he darkness with light\, and trust that just like the Sun\, we will rise e
 ach day no matter what life brings us.\n\nSeasonal Celebrations - Macleay
