Lunar Phases 2023
WINTER SOLSTICE | 21-22 June 2023
This week, the Southern Hemisphere ushers in the Winter Solstice and the longest night of the year. The traditional date of the Winter Solstice is the 21st of June, however, according to the ever shifting and arranging celestial elements, the height of this energy falls on the 22nd.
The Winter Solstice marks the beginning of the symbolic transition from our inner world and the world of night to welcoming the return of the sun. It still remains a time for reflection, listening, rest, and honouring the slow and steady pace of Winter. It's also about nourishing, grounding, self-care; the night, and the creative void of Earth's womb as we attune to the feminine forces of gestation. This year’s Winter Solstice falls on a Cancer moon which may increase our feelings of wanting to curl up at home, observing the waning slowness and supporting ourselves with super nourishing rituals.
Just like us, Earth’s inner life is very much alive in Winter, churning and gestating in anticipation of Spring, but on the surface, the use of energy is conserved as she slows down the production of new leaves and blooms. Because of this, there is also less moisture in the air which is why winter air feels noticeably dryer. So as the surface of the Earth and our skin are experiencing the same winter cycle complexion, it’s the perfect time to connect with the rhythm of Earth’s heartbeat and activate a new, deeply nurturing skin ritual to hydrate, replenish and nourish in anticipation of Spring. Our Evening Beauty Ritual Bundle welcomes the Light back into our lives by offering the ideal ritual to take advantage of these dwindling longer nights to help support our skin over these cooler, dryer and less active months, allowing us to benefit from the passive forces of the night and be nourished while we rest.
Because this year’s Winter Solstice falls on a Cancer moon, we are offering a Free gift of our Deep Peace essential oil synergy with every purchase of an Evening Beauty Ritual. The vibrational qualities of Deep Peace are in harmonic resonance with the constellation of Cancer, as well as the perfect companion for Winter to elevate your ritual.
Through June 25, simply add our Deep Peace essential oil synergy to your cart along with the Evening Beauty Ritual and use code SOLSTICE at checkout.

LUNAR PHASES
As above, so below. Since Hippocratic times and before, astrology was once considered a wholly scholarly and scientific discipline. While that may have changed, we are still beings living within the Earth and it's only natural that we are affected by astrological events. And like the tides of the earth, we are deeply influenced by these lunar phases. We hope that these activations support you to tune into these cosmic events in a useful way and enter into resonance with rhythms that are very much a part of us.
