The Magic is beginning to awaken..

The Garden can Become

for Celebrations
Ritual
and Seasonal Festivals
and Nature's Earth Magick

Here are some
Visual Meditations I share with you
for Summer Solstice
to enjoy...
The Beauty of Nature
A Stone Altar
adorned with
CRystals
Sun and Star..
a crown
a Glowing Copper Goblet
Candles for fire...
a Golden Sun Face
*
The Golden Sun and Crystal
Guarded by a Magical Sword of light
a Goblet full of Solstice Magic
*
All the Elements creating the Poetry of Nature..
Some Foxglove magic..
on the verge of fully blooming
By Summer Soltsice it is sure to be completely ignited..
A Wonderful Ally to any celebration
And my Friendly Gothic Lion
(spouting Ivy..)
Lions and Lioness..are A Powerful Fire Symbol
A sign of the SUN
Another magical companion for Solstice Spirit..
Outdoor Altars can be festive,
fun and creative
and displayed however you imagine..
Magical Periwinkles
( Sorceror's Violet) adorn this Sacred Space
like lush green pillars of Protection
Children love to find the Hidden Sun
as a tradition
Then on Summer Solstice
Hang it on a tree
or special place for the celebration
Or wait till sun rises..
as the dark transforms
into new light
and wait for that special moment..
to take a symbol of the sun you have chosen..
and hang it high somewhere..
or set up a sacred space for reflection
All symbols of power are blessed and kissed
by the magical energies of Summer Solstice Sun
A powerful Amber Sun Trellis..
More Festive symbols
of Sun Magic
If I were a winged creature..
this is what I'd see..

A Poem Shared by libramoon
*
The Moon is adrift in the wind above
our sheltering craft in the seaand all the world of Summer is ours
to ride the heat, toast to the stars
dance a languid beat, open our hearts
create a Summer of Love
Celebrate waves in the streets, with drums,
lucid bells call folk to play
Carnival cheer returns heat to fire
Chants blend to song, burning desire
into a chance to expand ever higher
fueled by smiling Sun

Thankyou libramoon

Super magical post!!! I knew you would find a use for that wonderful stone altar. Each season, I bet it will hold something delightful.
I especially like that copper goblet and the pentacle made of twigs.
Happy Midsummer to you! :)
Thankyou everyone for your beautiful words and adding your magic here!

The Garden Ms. S
Yay...thankyou so much..you are a shining star!
I love all your beautiful pictures. I have a rose quartz candle just like the one you have. Your altar is just beautiful.
Happy Summer Solstice.
Blessed Be.
I love the idea of incorporating the trees in an outside alter--hanging ornaments from them. I've yet to create an outside alter and your images have me brainstorming about what my first one might look like.
That stone altar looks amazing with all these beautiful items of celebration and ritual....I love that goblet....and your choice of crown :D Like a child witch princess....dancing thru the garden singing to the flowers....
I like that visual...heehee!
Happy Solstice to you....
I like your hidden Sun ritual -- charming!
beautiful summer art and photographs!
Happy Midsummer. Your altar is amazing, Kiki. Truly beautiful.
Hope your having fun today. Here
is my post just up on Midsummer:

Happy Midsummer Kiki!
Hello Kiki, your photos are lovely, are these gadgets really used for your meditations? Your collections seem grand!
Dear Kiki, I had some trouble leaving messages, I hear I am not the only one. Luckily I did a search and was able to fix whatever it was. I am packed and ready to go but could not leave without stopping by and leaving you a big Summer Hug. May your days be filled with joy and birdsong. See you soon XO (Breathtaking photos...as usual :0)
So much thought and attention goes into your inspired and beautiful posts...all who visit here, leave with a sprinkling of your essence. I wish you a deliriously magical and memorable summer.
High Summer, Midsummer is my favorite time of the seasons. Even in the sultry South! Barefoot, sun on shoulders, sweat on brow, eyes squinted from the light; you can melt into the sun, into the star. I am so glad you put together such a beautiful post. I love your Suns and your respectful alters. Warmest Blessings, Kiki. Peace. Brianne
This is such a powerful time not only for those of us in the Northern Hemisphere but a turning inward in the Southern half of the planet. I love the high energy now- long days full of light. Your post truly reflects this time of abundance and deep beauty!
Belated Solstice Blessings - I love your golden sun and the idea of a stone altar in the garden. I think I shall try and make something similar for myself.
What an enchanting post my friend!! Your altar is full of magic powers !!!
This post is full of energy and light and i'm sure you ARE a winged creature !!!
HUgs and Kisses to you beautiful Victoria!!!
:o)))))
Kiki, thank you so much for your beautiful message. So loved visiting your blog today and seeing all the beautiful and magical photos. You share all the different colours and elements, just magical.
I was watching a vid on youtube about this star(after having the vision about a mathmatical God/universe, set me in a new direction) The star is part of the number make of the universe, like a mathmatical code. Something more deep and knowledgable. So exciting!
Hope you having a brill time!
Hugs!
Julie
I love this post. I love the symbols and objects, it is such a beautiful tribute to midsummer.
