Solstice Greetings
Manage episode 390867563 series 3302798
In the Northern Hemisphere, today marks the winter solstice designating a point in the year when we are afforded the shortest amount of daylight—of course, if you live in say Australia or Chile, you are experiencing the opposite. It is also around this time of year, that many of our spiritual traditions anticipate the return of light. Today we have reached our darkest moment and it is time for the light to slowly return. It is a time that represents optimism, rebirth, and fellowship. And it is a time that many of us call for “Peace on Earth”.
Today, on Circle for Original Thinking, our host, Glenn Aparicio Parry will speak to us without guests, reflecting on the state of the world and the deeper meaning behind this time of year. With wars in the Ukraine and Gaza; global warming; political division; and the lingering fallout of the pandemic, this may seem like a bleak moment in history, but we will find reasons to be optimistic for a brighter future out of the darkness. Because, after all, that is what this time of year is all about.
Whatever holiday you may be celebrating, let us share the message of “Peace on Earth” and “Goodwill to All”.
