MYSTERIES OF THE FIRE ELEMENT
Honouring the Yang on Summer Solstice
Thursday, June 20 from 5-7 PM PST
live-stream with recording
During the Summer Solstice, the day becomes the longest (associated with Yang, or daylight or the expressed) of the year while the night is the shortest (linked to Yin, or darkness or the potentiated). This makes the Summer Solstice the most Yang day of the year, signifying the peak of summer and Yang-Fire energy.
Join us via live-stream (with recording) to usher in the Fire Season, also known as the Summer or Greater Yang phase, according to ancient Chinese traditions, including Daoist practice. The wisdoms shared and rituals we’ll engage in will not only help us honour the visible, as represented as the Solar archetype, but also to relate with the Yang aspect (sometimes referred to as the Masculine) that has so often been misunderstood or vilified. This continues our year-round exploration of the Wu Xing (Five Elements) according to Daoist principles.
During and around the Summer Solstice, the occasion presents for us to give honour to the Fire element, the direction of the South, the eyes, heart and small intestines as body centres since the Fire speaks about spirit and values. Mimi Young, animist spirit medium shares how to approach and relate with the Fire Element as an ally and without the distortions of even some New Age circles may regard the Yang aspect. Rather, engage with the necessary part of life, the Yang, through the foundations of Daoist thought, the I Ching, and what it means to be of service to the Yin that balances both our inner cravings and reality.
