I was celebrating Solstices and Equinoxes way before I attached it to anything spiritual or witchy. Now they mean even more. We always have a feast on the Saturday closest to the Summer Solstice and I also pitch a 'boho tent' in the back garden which I leave up all summer and retreat to for reading, napping, and star gazing throughout the season. I adore your videos!

I LOVE this video. Your calm and slower speaking is seriously meditative and calming, WOW. Also, thank you for incorporating the reading. I've been trying to find times to do more readings and the way you brought them with you on your walk just made my brain switch. I can do readings anytime and anywhere! Love love love the info you shared also. So grateful for you 🙏🏻🫶🏻🩷

Dead of Night is my seasonal go-to for ambient magical sounds!

Blessed Litha/Midsummer everyone. May your Sabbat be full of light, joy, and comfort.

It's so HOT in the Midwest right now! Manifesting cool breeze!

Blessed Be Litha. Enjoy your videos. Southern Ohio is having scorching weather this week. This will be my first Litha.

Hello from southern Ohio as well!

I’m in medical debt this Litha, so my summer solstice will be yoga by the Lake Superior, a free concert and gardening. No road trips, simple and easy

This year my coven and I celebrated Litha by going into the mountains and making paintings using nature! We brought canvases, paint, and paper plates, then used things like leaves, flowers, rocks, etc. to apply paint to canvases. The intention was to capture the energy and liveliness of the sun and summer solstice to carry us through the darker months. I would highly recommend it, it’s an easy activity for all ages and tons of fun! (Of course make sure you are respectful and don’t leave any litter.)

You remind me so much of my mother, she passed in 2023, she was always against whitches, but you just look so much like her its hard not to compare you to her, be blessed this year ❤

I am dreaming of a cool day. My garden and I are STRUGGLING in this South Carolina weather. Over 90F, hot and muggy. October can't come fast enough.🥴😵

I live in GA so I get it lol 😂

Last night, I sat on my porch & basked in the glow of the beautiful Strawberry Moon. Then I came inside at midnight (I'm in the US, in South Carolina) & watched the live stream of the Solstice sun rising over Stonehenge. It is super hot & humid here, so not too many outdoor activities for this very pale-skinned ginger, but I am planning a special Litha meal. Now adding making a Moon Dreamcatcher to my list. Thank you for the idea & a blessed Litha to you all!

My first Litha and this year is when I observe the wheel of the year. Lost my father in law so I need to find ways for the Universe in its natural state to recharge me

It’s been feeling like Litha for a whole dang week, tomorrow I’m gathering flowers to dry for my Litha bundle. Perfect timing for this video! I’m excited for now until August. It is paradise.

Wonderful plan! Have an awesome summer with lost of magic ✨️

Hot and humid in south western Virginia- cannot wait for cooler weather in the autumn.

My goodness the crotch goblins have grown so big! I was just remembering that I started watching your channel just after your 2nd baby came, and so tiny! 🥰 happy to see them out enjoying the strawberries.

After years, I finally go to a Litha celebration again this year! 😍 With Bondfire (and jumping 😉) singing and Dancing and a lot of rituals. And I’m so excited 🌸 I wish you all the very best and have a wonderful Sommersonnenwende 🌙🔥✨

I love it when you speak slower like in this video. It is so relaxing. Lots of beautiful ideas for the celebration.

That was beautiful from start to finish! Thank you very much 🙏🏼💕☀️

Happy Midsummer from the rainy south of France, Bex and family! ❤

Unfortunately I have to work on Litha. But last weekend I was able to go to a strawberry field with my mother and at least I can go for a walk and watch colorful flowers and bees during my lunch break. 😊

Yes, I love The Dead of Night for wonderful listening while reading or relaxing. Thanks for this beautiful video and your soothing voice. I have a terrible wandering mind so I enjoy quilting, slow stitching, painting, drawing, etc. Anything to quiet my mind. x's lj

15:02 a little mini you, how adorable... Thank you for another awesome video...

The sunrise morning walk was beautiful ❤ very relaxing to watch.

The solstice here is wild, we have 23 hours of daylight. So a small dip into twilight in the middle of the night, and then it gets bright again.

Happy Litha! I always feel really sleepy around this time. I mainly nap.😂😂😂

Ok me too. I first noticed it years ago before I even celebrated the solstice. I always noticed around this time of year I would get really irritable and just felt exhausted. I started to wonder if it had anything to do with the solstice. now I'm pretty sure it does! 🌞😊

Loved the drink ideas 🎉happy Litha 🌙 ⭐ 🌞

I wish you and beautiful and blessed Litha Bex ☀️ 💛

Thursday I’m making honey buttered cornbread and my boyfriend and I are going to watch the sun set and sit around the fire 🔥 pit. The next evening the ladies I do outdoor yoga with and I are getting together under the full moon for an impromptu gathering ❤

Blessed be on this wonderful Litha day.🌒🌕🌘😊❤🌹🏵🌻🌼🌷

I love your videos, as they seem to give me permission to bring magick into my life in small ways on holidays and that it's perfectly fine not to have an entire day based around a holiday. I needed that today, so I don't overdo it because I think I need to! Thank you. Blessed be.

I LOVE season of the witch decks! I have all of them and Lammas in preorder! It’s so beautiful!

You have inspired me. My adult daughter is coming over Saturday. She doesn't know this yet but we're now going to the farmer's market and getting strawberries and coming home to make vanilla ice cream strawberry smoothies. The secret is adding a dash of heavy cream -- and don't judge me for adding heavy cream, its really good :)

I always look forward to all your videos but especially when there's a Sabbat around the corner, my first thought is always 'new holiday video!'

Wishing you a peaceful Summer Solstice! I'm sooo happy you showed the sun tea card in your video - I've been trying to figure out what else to honor the holiday with this year and I completely forgot about sun tea! It's such a classic staple where I grew up in the southern USA. I just bought a magnificent black and rose petal tea that will be perfect for the occasion!

Thanks for another great video, Bex. Have a wonderful midsummer 😊☀🌞

That drink is gorgeous! Thank you for sharing. I must try.

Lovely video. I'll be birthing my first crotch goblin any day now, I can't think of anything more magical than that! Too tired to do anything else haha but I will be cleansing my home on the full moon and putting up new protection charms/wards. Happy summer solstice

I loved this video ☀️ I have that same Litha oracle deck, and I have just done the spread you suggested for some insight into this time of year ☺️ I also love Dead of Night’s videos too! His wheel of the year ambience videos are amazing 🌻xx

I love planting cat friendly gardens

I was so happy to find your channel! I’m new to meeting with other witches for rituals in my city which I love, but I couldn’t make it to Litha so improvised my own ritual at home which was a beautiful experience as well. Thank you for representing witchcraft as non-dogmatic, open to all, and not focused on buying lots of expensive stuff. There’s lots of woo-woo spirituality online that’s so gatekeepy and capitalist and it really turns me off, I’m so happy to find more likeminded witches to learn with online!

Great vid Bex, thanks for sharing. Happy Litha 😋🍸

This would have been my first summer solstice as a witch 🪄 but sadly, I had an emergency surgery and cannot celebrate but I will next year ❤

Im feeling Mandela effect on this: i couldve sworn, up until this year specifically, that Litha was another name for Lughnasadh, not midsummer.

It seems that you forgot to put the links to the tutorials in the description box.

I hate the Summer …worst time of year…there is nothing fresh or uplifting about it….it’s HOT, HUMID, and miserable….just hibernating until fall…. The last thing I need is someone else trying to sell another Tarot desk 🙄

Hey, y’all, on the topic of dream catchers, please please please be careful with them. They are a closed practice and we’re stolen and commercialized from indigenous groups. If you absolutely need to buy one, please buy it from an indigenous person or group. I’m not sure about making them, but in general, I would consider it a form of knot magic, but stay away from the term dream catcher.
