blackcoffeeanddarknightsI kind of feel like I should do something for the solstice, because I see everyone talking about it, but I'm not really sure what I want to *do*.
Neither of the deities that I work with at this point are particularly big solar guys*, and truthfully, any attempt I make at creating a yearly structure to my practice usually fails pretty dramatically. I've been busy moving and going to school. I haven't had time, before now, to do more than occasionally pray. ~Which works perfectly fine for me; it's been more important for me to keep the Netjer in my daily life than to try and do something Big for them during times I have no energy.
And I no longer have any interest in staying up all night on the solstice. I used to, but at this point, I value my sleep far too much. If I do something, I think I'll focus on keeping it simple; wake up early, greet the rising sun, take stock of everything that's happened this year, possibly do some tarot, and then go back to bed.
*They can be, of course, but so can all the Netjer. It's not really their primary Thing, though.
