Solstice 2020 UK: Monday 21st December @10.02am
The word ‘solstice’ comes from the Latin solstitium
meaning ‘sun stands still’, because the apparent
movement of the Sun’s path north
or south stops before changing direction.
glimpses from these s/lowdown times

do you remember travelling freely? so good. . . .things change. . .
appreciating now: this is a short video
goingNoWHere in 47 seconds
with music (made in Garageband)
. . . @ this dark time of the year the light begins its return. . .
always so useful to check
in with reality, and so to reflect on the past year,
unflinchingly allowing every thing to be as it is:
resting naturally,
nothing to change, avoid,
or indulge: so relaxing
relying on the timeless awareness of lucid intelligence
useful as well to dip
into the archive, acknowledge
the past, now:
& all that brought us
from there to here. . .
and great gratitude for this precious life
over many lifetimes, honouring everything that has led here:
so fortunate to have met radical ways of being & alternative models
of education /living philosophy/activism.
In the 1970s accessible paperback books were a great resource:
a delight revisiting the 1970’s in my 70’s, recognising foundations laid
that are present & flourishing in this life now –
here are a few of those seminal influences. . .

from Era of Great Benefit
When we commit to love of self, we commit to the Age of Human Empowerment and Era of Great Benefit. Each moment we rely on open intelligence, we rely on perfect love itself, and by relying on perfect love itself we bring love to the world. This is what the Era of Great Benefit truly is – living from love and from perfect love-relating in all relationships.
