The Summer Solstice is the time of the longest day, a time when the sun shines brightly upon us all. It is also the time of the shortest night, marking the turning of the year towards the dark times. In Arizona, the Summer Solstice is a time to celebrate the rains to come and to pray for our good harvest.
We will be meeting on Facebook Live on Saturday June 21st 2025 at 6:30 pm, to honor this time of new growth and innocence.
The ceremony is approximately 30 minutes long. Suggested love offering of $10.
This New Moon period begins on Monday, May 26th, and is exact at 8:02 PM PDT (Arizona time).
This represents the end of one lunar cycle and the beginning of a new one. Astrologically, this means that both the Sun and Moon are in the same sign and on May 26th, they are both conjunct in Gemini. The New Moon is a time of new beginnings, and Gemini encourages open communication and creative thinking, as well as tuning into your inspirations and inner knowing.
The New Moon in Gemini invites us to lighten up and embrace our social side. Gemini is curious, communicative, and hyper-connected with our surroundings, so look forward to being more mentally energized and able to multi-task. Make plans with friends and find ways to communicate your ideas to the world around you. It’s also a great time to take steps towards your goals and long-term visions as you develop a stronger sense of independence. Keep your mind and heart open to new information that can inspire fresh ways of thinking and communicating.
There are a few significant aspects during the days before and after the New Moon.

Please note that our Beltane ceremony was on Facebook Live on May 3rd, and replays are still available until June 2nd. Also, our Summer Solstice ceremony will be on June 21st. Stay tuned to learn more about that in the coming weeks.
The May Full Moon is exact on May 12, 2025 at 9:56 am Arizona time (Pacific Daylight time).
This is known as the Flower Moon due to the profusion of blooming flowers during this time. It’s a time of fertility, growth, and renewal. It’s a time to honor the vibrant energy of the season as life flourishes around us. It’s a time of light-hearted blossoming and creativity after the hardships of winter, a celebration of love and the unfolding of a vibrant life.
We have a Full Moon when the Sun and Moon are opposed Astrologically. At this time, the Sun is in Taurus and the Moon is in Scorpio, exactly opposed on May 12th at 9:56 am PDT. It’s an opportunity to bring deeper emotions to the surface and doing your inner work, exploring your deeper emotions, and forgiving yourself and others. It’s a time to Know Thyself, and open to your intuition. The Taurean energy gives you strength to release old beliefs and bring you to an emotional rebirth.
There are many aspects at work; some more challenging, but eventually settling into a sweetness, as well as aligning with the collective.
