August Babies

Happy Thanksgiving! Merry Christmas! Happy Hanukah!

Hang on to your hats! It is a wild and hairy trip that carries us humans into the winter solstice and towards the new year. Celebrations abound. Food and drink appear in copious quantities. Fires begin to roar in toasty shades of orange and red and yellow and people start lighting candles, or, in today’s world, spread tiny little lights all over the place, on trees and houses, tables and windows.

Winter is coming! The revelry is interspersed with spiritual undertones, a sort of primal wonder that the world, once so bright and sunny and warm, is now shedding her outer layers and displaying only the bare bones of her existence.

In the midst of all this outpouring of joy and noise, a few souls pull inward. Snuggling deep under the blankets of soft and cozy beds, or splayed out upon the rug before a wild and roaring fire, they celebrate the coming of those cold, dark days, with creation!

Lighting fires deep within, they breathe life and love into each other, weaving new souls that will incubate in this warmth throughout the winter and spring and long hot days of summer, emerging as the late July and August babies just being born!

Happy Birthday little ones, we welcome you into the world. Wishing you a lifetime of being loved, an eternity of being adored, a way of walking that is forever guided by the light and love that made you in the first place!

Come join the other August babies, the Tiffanies and Lelas, the Joels and Lennons who grace this world with souls that don’t just shine, they shimmer!
