    The end brought me to tears. Thank you so much for sharing your gifts with others! I was tickled to see the orange and yellow foods! I have many herbs in my garden that would make lovely syrups. LOVE that idea! I keep a pitcher of lemonade in the fridge in the summer, so they’ll be perfect!💛🧡❤️

The syrup recipe is in the description and honestly it was so easy to make!! Good idea using different herbs, I'd love to use lemon balm 🌞🌞🌞 have a wonderful solstice! All my love to you 🌞💛😊💛🌞

      I think up to this point this is Blessed Alwyn's masterpiece. Much like when she mentioned of never wanting a moment to end during the video, I felt so much the same. The music, the colours, the atmosphere, the knowledge, the overwhelming feeling of care and love 😮

    Absolutely perfect. What a beautiful day. Litha is my favorite Solstice along with Yule. Litha is such a bittersweet as we say goodbye to the Sun and begin to mentally prepare for turn into the darker days, which I love too. All so wonderful to be connected with earth and nature and to move and flow with her. This video brought sweet tears to my eyes as I reminisced of my past Mid Summer Celebrations. I think this year I will be making a lovely Sun catcher to keep through the winter. Thank you sister for such a thoughtful and touching video. Blessed Be.

    I missed the premiere (phone calls at the end of my work day are the worst)! I loved all of your ideas for the solstice! It didn’t even occur to me to make sun water, so I’ll definitely be incorporating that this year. I also love the idea of watching the sunrise at Stonehenge, and since I’m in Ontario I’ll be able to watch it before I go to sleep for the night! ❤️
    Much love to you my dear. I always come away from your videos with something new. 🌸

I am going to try your Letting Go evening ceremony. Thank you Alwyn! 🌸

    Well I am so happy that I have found this beautiful video, which I have just watched in the early hours of the 21st of June. I’m not really the biggest lover of summer. I am very much an autumn and winter person… but this video has inspired me to attempt to truly make the most of this day. And to try to create some special memories of the sun instead of wishing for the summer to be over like I usually do. So thank you, and I wish you a blessed and peaceful solstice 🌞💛

  • @sherides4341
    @sherides4341 3 года назад +12

    And I also wanted to ad, you really made me think when, in your disclaimer, you said to be safe in wooded areas. I know I'm always kind of pushing it when I go out in the woods by myself, and when I see videos like yours, I say "See, it's okay." I didn't know you weren't alone. A good reminder to be cautious and safe. (But Alywn, it's so tempting to go it alone!) Anyway, maybe you saved me from future harm. Thank you.

    • @AlwynOak
      @AlwynOak  3 года назад

      It is SO tempting I know! I did have a bad experience a few years ago unfortuantly (not in the woods it was actually on a main road!!! Wasn't terrible, but enough to have me shaken up and upset!!) You never know who or what is lurking out there! Have a wonderful litha 😊✨☀️🌞

    • @judeross3875
      @judeross3875 3 года назад +1

      After challenging myself and reading some very powerful female authors. I no longer feel this way. Our birthright is to be in nature. I feel safer alone in nature woods, streams, sea etc than I ever do in the city. As Alwyn said she had bad experience main road. Please don't feel you can't go out alone. Protection spell and intention after a shower or saining or smudging self helps give you confidence. I also have a staff if I am going on a longer walk alone. This sends out a signal not to mess with me!! Much love xx

    • @tainoroyal6585
      @tainoroyal6585 3 года назад +1

      If you go walking a lot alone, I would recommend taking some martial arts classes. The good classes will not just teach about fighting, but also about situational awareness. Also learning to read the warning signals from the animals that we share the woodlands with can give you extra information about what's happening nearby. For instance, what are the birds doing? Are they singing, that probably means you are the only one close by, but if they suddenly stop and you are not the cause, you know that there might be other (not necessarily bad) humans approaching. I really recommend wing chung as a martial art for women, it was invented by a woman and is great for smaller/slighter built people. Happy Solstice!

    I finally got the time to sit and watch it beautiful lady. I poured a glass of harvested elderflower and strawberry cider from last summer at a time when I hoped we would be free from shackles we still find ourselves in. The wish has not been lost as your hope and joy are on a par with how I hope we all will continue. My daughter will go off the chart with this video and mostly with the cat cameo 😂 we both thank you , value you and wish for your protection and happiness through our beautiful coming season. Thank you and Blessed be with love and appreciation 🧡💚❤️

    I can not wait to try your fun idea for a sun catcher! I didn’t realize how easy it is to make them. I’m sure I have some bits and bobs lying around that I could use but the quartz I have is all loose and I wouldn’t know how to attach it.

    It can't be a coincidence that I saw a sun catcher in the bookstore today. (I should have bought it. 😉) You are a lovely fairy - witch, Alwyn. I will learn a lot from your ritual. Especially the one with the sun water. When I see you dancing in the forest, I know that there is still good in this world. You make this world a little better. Thanks! 😊💚 And may the gods of the sun (Sol, Amaterasu, Apollon, Ra and so on.) always protect and guard you. 🌞🌻💛
