Wow! Five more hours till 10:08 ( if I can click send fast enough). I'm so glad it's going to start turning the other way...

Thanks Trudi - Happy Solstice to everyone!

Thanks oldies for teaching this newbie about WS. A special thank you to fran who told me about it and gave me some of her time. Barb

And also to you, Trudi. I just received an absolutely beautiful solstice email from my cousin in London, and I feel completely connected.

Imagine what will happen when the wine sets in, eh? :)

Love to all who celebrate the return of light and life!

Stirrings and awakenings- energizing into growth and action-
the tides are turning- even as we slumber.
A fine solstice evening it is!
I am thankful and grateful for the company and camaraderie shared here-
Time to drink a toast to the new seasons- to life- and to fellowship! Then- time to get dirty! I got my jugs all primed!

Gardening season has begun! SO grateful to have you and our forum friends to begin this new year. I can't wait to see what is going to happen!

Happy Solstice to all of you... and a special thanks to Trudi for being the one that got me started on this beautiful way of working with Nature. I thank you, my garden thanks you.
Peace
George

I too want to send Happy and Blessed Solstice greetings to all of you! Thanks to Trudi who started my mother (MargeC) in this great way to garden and gave us many wonderful hours of memories to share and to Fran who shared so much of her garden with my mother so we had so many wonderful flowers for her to enjoy!
God Bless Everyone!
May you have a bountiful and wonderful Solstice!

Happy solstice everyone. Between my job (everyone trying to squeeze their surgery in before the end of the insurance year) and my own Christmas rush, I haven't been on the forum much for the last few days. Been missing it and needed a fix. Anxious to get started but won't get much of a chance, maybe a few jugs after Christmas is over.

Hey rosepedal, who you callin' an oldie?

Hi Everyone.

Happy Solstice greetings from Denmark :-D

Just had to come and say hello to everyone on this joyfull day.

I just loooove the thought of the days getting longer... it cant happen fast enough.

Im sorry for having been away for so long... Too long story.
But Im ok... and the buns are fine too, hi Carrie ;-) (An old thread)

Hugs
Hanne

Thank you and same to you!
I'm late posting, but the sentiment is no less fierce :-)

This is only my 2nd year to sow on the solstice-I'd always made the excuse that I was too busy in December, but I sowed last night & really felt connected to something bigger. It was a peaceful & meaningful thing, the simple act of pressing the seeds into the dirt felt like a blessing in itself, & I think it's a good thing to take time to slow down for a few minutes at this time of year. Here's to the return of the light, happy & fruitful sowing to all of you!

Thank you Trudi, and all of you, who have been so giving of your thoughts and time to this forum. May we all stay as connected to each other and our earth-mother as we have felt the past 24 hours or so. Blessings flow...

Happy Solstice to all from the front range in Colorado.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
