Dear, Calm and Innocent Children of the Earth,
The Autumnal Equinox, when Night and Day are of equal length, is upon us. Fall is here. No matter what else is going on, the Great Wheel of the Year is still turning.
In the Northern Hemisphere, the Harvest is being brought in, Fall leaves and pumpkins are showing up, houses are being prepared for Winter and we human's can feel the change in the angle of the Sun's light.
This is the email you should have received!
Dear, Awakening and Sparkling Children of the Earth,
Summer Solstice is here! Also known as Midsummer or Litha, it's the longest day of the year. Here in the Northern Hemisphere it's the first day of three months of Summer.

Winter Solstice 2019
Dear, Sparkling and Beautiful Children of the Earth,
Winter Solstice is here! We’ve made it to the longest night of the year and now the days are going to get longer. Throughout human history, this time of year has been marked with rejoicing at the return of the Sun. Bonfires, feasts, celebrations of joyful connections with friends and family all mark this renewal
Dear, Gentle and Strong Children of the Earth,
Dear, Rooted and Rock-Steady Children of the Earth,
Summer Solstice is here! The Pagan holiday of Litha is being celebrated! It's the magical "Mid-Summer's Night" when the days are long, slow and full of an abundance of Sun. Nights are warm and full of breezes and Moonlight. This is a time for all of us to remember the Earth, our Bodies, and the joy of stretching out.
Dear, Optimistic and Expectant Children of the Earth,
Spring is here! The Vernal Equinox has arrived! Days are getting longer, the Sun is getting stronger, sap is rising in the trees and we all feel pulled from our winter hibernation by the enticing Sun.
Dear, Relaxed and Rejuvenating Children of the Earth,
Dear, Awakening, and Compassionate Children of the Earth,
The Autumnal Equinox is happening! Day and Night are balancing. We can feel the Wheel of the Year turning: the light is different, the sun sets earlier, geese are beginning to head south. It’s time to take a little break from all our hard work, to celebrate and share the fruits of our labors. It’s Harvest Time!
