Summer Solstice Fire Ceremony

Real Estate Agent with E3 Green HOMES

Summer Solstice Fire Ceremony

I attended a summer solstice celebration at the Shepherd Valley Waldorf School in Niwot Colorado on Friday night. It was a small gathering with about a dozen adults and about the same number of kids.

The celebration was simple. We made some prayer flags and then we had a little fire ceremony. At the fire ceremony a few people spoke wishing good health and happiness to all.

Part of the ceremony is to burn something to symbolize letting go of something that is holding you back in your life. Afterwards, there was the opportunity to ‘jump’ over the fire as another symbol of overcoming adversity and challenges in life.

Not too many adults jumped the fire but virtually all of the kids did. The last photo is one of the bigger kids. The photos below captured a few images of the kids jumping over the fire. It was a nice celebration and ended around 9:30.

Ah, Summer Solstice - the longest and, my favorite day of the year!  I'm glad the kids were jumping over the fire, rather than walking on it:-)

Summer Solstice - a time to think about our planet and the rest of the year that is to come. Thanks for sharing!
