As the days grow shorter and the nights longer, may all of us in the Northern Hemisphere prepare ourselves for December 21st. It is the day we commemorate the Winter Solstice and honor the darkest night of the year. Please pause what you're doing, bow your head, and honor the shadows by journeying deep within to reflect, restore and nourish your spiritual cores. Though a rose is beautiful when in full bloom, lest we forget that its shriveled death is but a few days away. Like the evergreens we bring inside each December to decorate with lights and tinsel, let those green harbingers of the holidays remind us that death is necessary in order to be reborn into the ocean of cosmic energy that surrounds each and every one of us. Also? Happy Fu**ing Holidays.
