Reflections on Winter Solstice 2010
Winter of 2011 was ushered in this week by the rare celestial event of a simultaneous lunar eclipse on the Winter Solstice (if you missed it, I captured some shots from outside my studio in Denver here).
If you'll pardon my waxing poetic for a moment, I'd like to reflect briefly on the poignancy of this alignment -- the emergence of the full moon beneath the eclipse of Earth's shadow to usher in a new season, longer days and new year, following a year containing its fair share of darkness -- it's kind of beautiful, right??
With that thought, I'd like to send out a wish that the lengthening of days will guide you brightly into this New Year. May the new season bring us all renewed hope, health and laughter, and inspire us all to shine OUR light more brightly in 2011.
Wishing you Happy Holidays and ABUNDANCE in the NEW YEAR!! Jennifer Koskinen | Merritt Design Photo
