✨ Winter Solstice Blessings: Honoring the Sacred Light Within ✨   On this longest night, at the Winter Solstice, we pause to honor the turning of the seasons—a sacred moment where darkness embraces the returning light. The Winter Solstice invites us to slow down, reflect deeply, and reconnect with the eternal wisdom within and around us. This is a time for transformation, where the seeds of renewal are sown, ready to blossom as the light grows stronger. It is a reminder that in stillness and darkness, profound healing and new beginnings are birthed. At Birthing an Ancient Future, we carry this sacred spirit forward, weaving ancient wisdom and modern science to guide humanity toward peace, connection, and healing. As we step into the New Year, we invite you to join us on our ongoing powerful journeys of transformation, across 2025. As the Winter Solstice marks a return to the light, we also celebrate the joy and warmth of the holiday season—a time to gather in love, reflect on the year past, and welcome the opportunities of the year ahead. May this Christmas / holiday period and new calendar year bring peace, renewal, and inspiration to all - uniting us as we step into a brighter, more connected future as stewards of a new earth. Join our new initiative of calling in a Multidisciplinary Council of Peace-Builders - our baby to be born in 2025 with many new activities, events, and upcoming trainings. From inner work to global peace - become the change that you want to see in the world. May Peace Prevail on Earth. 🌍 Stay updated on our further news on our Calling in the Peace-Builders of the Ancient Future https://lnkd.in/dYzMjurs With infinite gratitude, Dr Regina U Hess Visionary Founder/Director Birthing an Ancient Future Multi-disciplinary Council of Peace-Builders & Team 🌟 Together, we are the light. 🌟 #WinterSolstice #BirthingAnAncientFuture #GlobalPeaceBuilding #DrReginaUHess #ShamanicWisdom #HealingJourney LinkedIn #PeaceBuildersTraining #AncientWisdomModernScience #Shamanism

In life's journey, individuals inevitably face unexpected challenges and periods of uncertainty, such as losing a job, financial hardship, personal endeavors, and moments of feeling idle or directionless. These wilderness experiences can evoke feelings of rejection and isolation, prompting questions about God's involvement and the deeper purpose behind these trials. From a Deivist perspective, these phases are not random but ordained by divine providence. Firstly, there are wilderness experiences ordained directly by God (Matthew 4:1-2). Secondly, there are voluntary wilderness experiences (Luke 5:16). Thirdly, there are circumstantial wilderness experiences (James 1:2-4, Psalm 23:4). Through these wilderness seasons, believers are invited to trust in God's providence, embrace His refining work in their lives, and emerge stronger, wiser, and more deeply rooted in faith.

At this time when we feel the sands shifting beneath our feet, when political climates are changing, and our hearts and sense of safety are wildly tested … we are so deeply served by taking deep breaths of perspective to find an anchor of peace in the raging sea. ✨We are not alone. ✨See the loves in our lives that do sustain us. ✨Imagine and embrace Just One Soulful Thing today, to claim a little clairty and calm in the chaos. ✨Turn off and tune out from the world for a moment, to wander, to see what we do have within and around us that is of beauty and light and hope. ✨Oh the simple offering of a kind word, heartfelt call, or soulful gesture to extend ourselves to another in sorrow or need of a reminder of their preciousness. Divisiveness, discord, anguish, anger, despair … can only enter through our doors, by permission. One soulful thought and deed can shift the tides and offer anchor. In honor and call of the collective of We to hold fast to hope and do what we can to sustain one another in it all. ✨JOST - excerpt in photo - from my 💙 to yours. ✨A port of words in the storm of life; gems and practices to bring comfort and encourage celebration of all that is and can be … Just One Soulful Thing - A Simple Adventure in Reclaiming Your Wild Wisdom - https://lnkd.in/ghJWPejC - https://lnkd.in/gSM5a3W9

Here’s an important message from Torngarsuk the Bear God. I am Torngarsuk, the Bear God and Guardian of the Spirit World. Humanity stands at a pivotal moment, where choices resonate through time and space. Embrace your interconnectedness with nature; honor all living beings as sacred threads in the tapestry of existence. In this era, prioritize compassion over competition. Seek balance within yourselves and with one another. As distractions fade, turn inward—nurture your spirit through mindfulness and authentic connections. Engage deeply with the Earth; restore habitats that have been wounded by neglect. Stand united for justice and protect those who cannot speak for themselves—the animals of our world. Articulate love through creativity; share stories that inspire hope and healing among communities. Remember that every action counts—small acts can lead to profound change. As you navigate these times ahead, trust in your intuition and be guided by love’s light. Together, walk towards unity, harmony, and enlightenment—a future woven from respect for all life forms awaits you if you choose it wisely.

Life is truly invaluable, and its pace is so swift that we often fail to realize how quickly time is passing by. When I deeply reflect on my own life, I come to understand that this precious life should never be wasted on meaningless pursuits. God, who is the ultimate and infinite power, has sent us to this earth to perform good deeds. Our aim should always be to engage in actions that benefit society, the nation, and humanity as a whole. Today, as I sit in a peaceful and serene place, this thought crosses my mind that time is passing by rapidly, and somewhere, we are being left behind in its race. Reflecting on this, I realize the importance of utilizing every moment wisely. This utilization is meaningful only when it is dedicated to the welfare of society and the betterment of humanity. The true purpose of our life is not merely to fulfill personal desires but to strive to improve the lives of others. It is our moral and spiritual duty to live in such a way that our actions contribute not only to our growth but also to the upliftment of society. Every moment of life is priceless, and we must be constantly vigilant in directing it towards the right path.

In the spirit of spring, let's embark on a journey of rediscovery, seeking to restore lost traditions and ancestral practices that honored the profound interconnection with all living beings. As the season unfolds with its promise of renewal and growth, let's draw inspiration from the wisdom of our ancestors who understood the sacredness of Earth and the reciprocity of gratitude. Let's rekindle the flames of ancient ceremonies, weaving together threads of remembrance and reverence for the natural world. In the heart of the springtime, let's gather together in gratitude ceremonies, offering prayers of thanks for the abundant gifts bestowed upon us by Earth. Let's create sacred spaces where we can pause and reflect on the blessings of nature, from the nourishing soil beneath our feet to the boundless sky above. Let's honor the complex web of life that sustains us all, acknowledging our interconnectedness with the plants, animals, and elements that coexist harmoniously in this intricate tapestry of existence. Through the practice of gratitude, we not only nourish our souls but also cultivate a deeper sense of belonging and purpose within the natural world. Let's reclaim our ancestral heritage as guardians of Earth, embracing our role as stewards entrusted with the care of this sacred planet. Let's walk gently upon the land, guided by the timeless wisdom of our ancestors, and let our gratitude ceremonies serve as a beacon of light, illuminating the path towards a more harmonious and sustainable future for generations to come. #GratitudeCeremony #SpringBlessings . . . . . . . . . . . .

This powerful reminder from Robin Wall Kimmerer speaks to the resilience and generosity of our earth, even in times of crisis. In moments where it feels like the weight of environmental issues or personal challenges could eclipse everything else, there’s wisdom in pausing to notice the small, sacred gifts that nature bestows upon us. 🌼 The delicate petals of a flower, the soothing rush of a breeze, the glow of a sunrise — these moments are the earth’s quiet whispers that joy is always within reach, even when the world feels wounded. Choosing joy doesn’t mean ignoring the hardships. It means acknowledging them while still honoring the beauty that surrounds us and remembering our responsibility to give back. It’s about recognizing that the earth, in its wounded state, still supports and nourishes us. How can we not offer gratitude and find our own way to return the favor? So, today and every day, choose to seek out moments of wonder. Choose to honor the gifts around you and turn them into seeds of hope. Let’s be mindful of this — let’s nourish the earth as she nourishes us. 🌱 What are the small wonders you notice around you today? How do you choose joy in the face of pain and suffering?
