Litha. Midsummer. The Summer Solstice. 

The Wheel of the Year will turn again on June 20th. We will enter a liminal space, where the veil between worlds thins. As Shakespeare reveals in his classic play, A Midsummer Night's Dream, the fairy realm becomes particularly accessible.

But you may not be in the mood for fairy merriment this year.

The summer solstice is represented in the tarot by The Sun, a major arcana card which symbolizes the dispelling of darkness, and the inner light of consciousness. Spiritually, The Sun card indicates a great leap forward; enlightenment.

 

The Goddess Temple of Palm Springs invites you to join us as we anticipate the Summer Solstice.

Let’s elevate our spirits and inner light by ritually celebrating Amaterasu, the radiant Sun Goddess in the Shinto religion. Believed to be the originator of all light, Amaterasu is known for Her compassion, warmth and kindness.

 

The sun stands still. Magic is afoot. 

In Community and Connection, We Gain Hope and Strength

 

I first met Rev. Priestess Amalya at the International Goddess Spirit Rising Conference in September 2019. All eyes were drawn to the towering Kali altar she designed and built for the main ritual room. During the closing night ritual, Amalya gave a riveting performance as as the Hindu goddess.

Expect transformative energy as Amalya leads us out of winter's still cocoon and into spring's awakening. Join us on Saturday, April 4, 5:00 p.m. for the Spring Celebration at the Goddess Temple of Palm Springs.

To reserve your seat and get directions to the event, please text 310-770-3823 or email docsharonsiegel@gmail.com

The Wheel of the Year turns to Ostara and the Spring Equinox. In this time of renewal and rebirth, we awaken from winter's darkness and open ourselves to new growth, inspiration, and creation.
