As you probably already know, tomorrow, December 21st, is the Winter Solstice. This is the point on the Wheel of the Year where the Dark of Night is longest and the Light of Day is the shortest. We are literally in the pit of Darkness. The Underworld, as far as the Cycle of the Year goes.
At this point, the Sun appears to come to a standstill for 3 days. The word “solstice” in Latin actually means that the sun stops. Solar = sun and sisto or sistere = stop or to set up.
Now, connect the concept that the Sun lies in a tomb for 3 days. It is the end of the Light and ALSO its beginning as it is Born again after this transition. This is the Nature of the Wheel at work.
The End is the Beginning.
Always.
The Sun, which is quite literally our Savior in physical terms, is Born to start a New Year and to, once again, show us the path of Enlightenment and the course of Life itself. From Birth to Death, the Wheel shows us all.
As the SunSon is Born and the days get longer, it rises up as Capricorn, the Goat. Eager and sure-footed, climbing up out of the Darkness and bringing us towards the promised Spring where the Earth will burst forth with Life and Energy at the Vernal Equinox.
As a young ram in Aries, it will be headstrong and eager to start new things. The Earth becomes impregnated with life and vitality and carries that through the height of the Summer Solstice. As it reaches the sign of Leo (obviously I’m greatly condensing all of this) it reaches the maturity of its power and strength. The firey mane of the great Lion shines forth as a sign for all to see his halo of power.
Not long after, however, the Sun reaches the scales of Libra and at the Autumn Equinox we Fall again into another Winter as the Light fades and the Darkness grows. The Sun will be stung by the tail of Scorpio and finished off by Sagittarius’ arrow and will once again end up in the tomb.
And the Wheel will continue to turn.
Please know that the mythology we’ve been taught has always been a way to convey deep, Natural Truths that hold Divine meaning. Unfortunately, those stories have been twisted and the keys to their understanding have been hidden from us such that we’ve been left with fairy tales we are told are literal and historical, when they actually hold much more beautiful messages for us.
All of these myths and allegories have many, many layers of meaning and the symbology embedded within them takes a lifetime (or many) to unpack and understand - to gain Gnosis of all of it.
I wish you well on your Journey. May the Great Spirit that flows through All guide you in all your endeavors and may your Yuletide be Blessed.
In Love,
~TR ✨💖✨

“I wanted to wish you all a Blessed Mother Night tonight as we are in the DEEPEST DARKEST currents of the Dark of the Sun right now. The night before the Winter Solstice is the night the Great Mother goes into labor to birth/rebirth the Sun- which is why we call it Mother Night. The Christmas song 'Silent Night, Holy Night' is a song for Mother Night- as it is out of the deepest peace and silence of the end of a previous Solar Cycle that the new one is born/reborn. (In the Christmas tradition this song is seen as connected to Christmas eve December 24th)
Tomorrow early morning at 4:20am EST the Sun moves into Capricorn and comes to the stillest point in his orbital path. He will no longer move any lower in the sky at solar noon and appears to come to a standstill for 3 days. From December 21st through December 24th the Sun stands still at the southern declination of 23 degrees 26 minutes and then starts to move by 1 minute on December 24th and then by 2 minutes on December 25th. With technology we can see this but with the naked eye it is imperceptible.
This portal of December 21st through December 24th is a time to stand still ourselves. It is a time to pause, retreat, reflect and take time to go within. It is a time to be silent and to be still like the Great Mother and her son the Sun. Of course in this modern day and age this is typically a time filled with parties, gatherings, travel, shopping and more! Nature tells us to pause and be still, but contemporary culture says to do the opposite.
If you can find some time to anchor into stillness and silence in the coming days I highly recommend it. This is one of the holiest times of the year- but it could pass you by if you busy yourself so much that you miss out on the magic that only gets tapped when you turn your attention inward.
For those of you in the Southern Hemisphere- this is the moment of Summer Solstice. Both Solstices are standstill moments- but the Summer Solstice is the standstill point of the Highest Light of the Sun. If the Winter Solstice is the moment of rebirth in the darkness, Summer Solstice is the moment of Union with the Highest Light. I conceive of the first half of the Solar Cycle from Winter Solstice to Summer Solstice as the part of the cycle that is about ascension and reaching for the Highest Light. And from Summer Solstice to Winter Solstice it is about descension and embodiment- bringing that Light all the way down and in. The Solar Cycle mirrors our own journeys of birth, death and rebirth, ascension and descension, enlightenment and embodiment.
May you feel the grace and love of the Great Mother carry you in these deep and holy times.”

May you find peace in the promise of the long Solstice Night,
Knowing each day is blessed with more Light.
That the cycle of Nature, unbroken and true,
Brings Faith to your Soul and well-being to you.
Rejoice in the Darkness,
In its Silence find rest,
And may all your days be abundantly Blessed.

This winter solstice will mark not only the end of a year and the beginning of a new one, but with all the outer planets (Pluto, Uranus, Neptune) about to be in different signs in 2025, it will also feel like the end of an entire era and the beginning of a new one.
Since it’s the end of an era, do not be surprised if sadness, grief, or old memories arise. Long-standing karmic patterns will end while the seeds for a new future are being planted.
You must let go of the person you were so you can be reborn into this new self.
Embrace the metamorphosis.
A more authentic version of you is waiting for you on the other side of this death and rebirth process.

Break the Chain
“You are being called to heal your family line or free yourself from living the life of your ancestors. This could mean letting go of an old pattern of your maternal or paternal line. Healing trauma from the past that is not even yours or observing old ways of being that no longer serve you.”
“We carry emotional trauma in our luminous field for up to seven generations back. This is why family patterns can be the hardest to break. Often, they are not even ours to begin with. But we do not know another way of being and so we continue playing out the drama.”
“The thing to notice when ancestral healing comes up is that you cannot heal another person, but your own healing can cause another person to choose to heal. You are being guided now to look at your life and decide how you want it to be…”

Why do people develop narcissistic, sociopathic or even psychopathic behaviors?
Usually it’s because they were traumatized themselves. Most have buried that trauma deep into their psyches where it now causes them to continue the chain of pain from an unconscious level. They think they are operating completely rationally and correctly, while in reality, it’s their Shadow that is doing the operating.
But just because we can see and understand what happened to them, does that mean that we excuse their behavior and continue to let them hurt people? Do we continue to interact with toxic people just because we know why they are toxic? We might see the cause of the dysfunction but is letting them off the hook because it “wasn’t their fault” the right course of action? Does it help an abuser to let them continue to be abusive?
Obviously, no. And when someone shows you over and over who and what they are, if you choose to ignore that, the consequences are on you.
So who has to stop that chain of events?
You know who.
{{sigh}}
You.
And you have to do it even when it’s hard af and it feels like you’re ripping your own heart out by setting that boundary. Because guess what…you’re the only one who can. It’s sure as hell not going to be the abuser. Not usually. Not 99 times out of 100. I mean miracles can happen, sure, but I’m not holding my breath on that one. Not anymore. Not in these circumstances. I’ll wait from afar, but I will not stay in the room with the poison hoping that it magically goes away.
So, even though the abuse wasn’t your fault and even though you wish with all your heart it could be different, and even though it’s really and truly not fucking “fair”…
You have to be the one who stands up and stops it.
Otherwise, you’re going to pass it on. Most likely to your own children if you have them. Or onto those around you who become the targets of your own projected pain and frustration, just as was done to you.
So, understand that your anger rises up from within to protect you. Yes, you have to control it, but it’s your friend. Not your enemy. And many of us didn’t learn that growing up. Many were taught that the only safe thing to do was to stuff it all down and paint on a smile.
And if you swallowed all of that anger and sadness, it morphed and festered and probably made you very sick, or depressed, or addicted, or ____________. (You fill in the blank, these things manifest in a multitude of forms.)
The point is that these Emotions do not go away. They are Energy. They cannot be Created or destroyed. They can only change form. And they must be dealt with through the Art of Transmutation. There is no other way.
And the irony of it all is that the person who caused you to bury your own pain was in all likelihood doing it to themselves first. Not your choice or your fault, but still…..the sins of the father will be visited upon the son unless someone breaks the chain.
It’s a pattern. And one that has to stop. The new Energies are not even going to allow that kind of discordance to exist. But we have to work through what’s already been calcified in our systems.
Let the trapped emotions out.
Listen to what they have to tell you, because they were carrying messages for you all along. Emotions carry the Truth of a situation.
And the Truth…will set you Free.
Love,
~TR ✨💞✨

For anyone who wants some information on how the heck to do this “emotional releasing” thing, this video is really quite good:
https://youtu.be/IQYlpIPdirs?si=pKSpGL_Ox46E71M2
There are many out there and using techniques like somatic healing and bodywork, inner child and shadow work, as well as EFT and EMDR can be amazingly helpful.
Let your Intuition guide you to whatever healing modality you need. And give yourself the space and the Grace to fully confront whatever it is that is calling for your attention.
Many old wounds and traumas are being brought to the surface now.
Let the Healing begin.
In Love,
~TR ✨💖✨

“Being traumatized is not just a case of being stuck in the past, it is just as much a problem of not being alive in the present.”
—Bessel von der Kolk
We have all been traumatized to one extent or another. The question is, are you going to make the effort to Heal? Or are you going to continue using the defense mechanisms you developed in response to that to navigate your life?
Contrary to popular opinion, time does not heal all wounds. You can gain distance and clarity on your experiences through the passing of time, but Healing takes the courage and willingness to dig in.
This where the practices of Shadow Work and Inner Child Work come into play. If you’ve not done these things or are unfamiliar with the concepts, please search this channel as well as TheWarriorMom’s to gain some insight.
Trauma is stored in the BODY and the energy field. It’s not just in your memory. That’s why using just traditional talk therapy does not usually work to Heal. We are Spirit, Mind AND Body. Using just your Mind to address embedded issues will only get you so far. Mind over matter, sure. But we need to use our Minds to understand and then to Choose to release what is stored in the body.
Methods such as EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique), Somatic Healing / Movement, Energy Medicine and Bodywork are all powerful tools that are available to us. Meditation, Grounding, Yoga and many other methods are helpful too. Just find what works for you. With all the information we have at our fingertips now, you don’t need to go out and spend tons of money on therapists or practitioners. You can. That’s not a bad thing, but you DO have tools and resources available to you.
You might be surprised at what you find trapped in the very tissues of your body.
What is the ROOT cause of disease? Could it possibly be self-hatred or shame? The Creative power of the Self turned inward in a destructive manner? And if that’s true (it is) then how much Healing can you do by turning your power to Heal and to Love inward on your Self?
May your Journey be Blessed beyond measure.
In Love,
