Welcome to Gaia! ::

this will be my first time to celebrate it, but i dont know how >.<

Now, how could I leave this out: Midsummer's Eve is also the time when the Fairy Folk are about - Shakespeare, after all, based his play on something far older.

Here's another essay on various Midsummer customs:

I was reading in Ted Andrew's "Nature-Speak", thinking about my next post for the Spirits thread, when I took a look at his section on Sacred Rites of the Seasons. There is a chapter for each of the Equinoxes and Solstices, occasions which were not conceived by people but are based on the Astronomical movements of the Earth.

"The summer Solstice is a time when the forces of Nature reach the peak of their annual cycle, and the spiritual forces of Nature stirs their magnificent play within our life. The keynote is transformation and transmutation that instills greater spirituality. The energies available to us at this time of the year facilitate communion with our devic and angelic brethren more easily and more intimately.
......
"This is the time of the year to establish a relationship between ourselves and divine forces found upon the Earth, and all of those who have aligned with it. It is the time to awaken spiritual ecstasy. It is the time in which contact with the angelic hierarchies - including those of the Faerie Realm - can occur most easily and most intimately. Greater concentration is required, as there is often more outer world activities which can distract us. But it is a time in which the alignment of the more subtle planes of life with the physical provides greater access."

As I have already alluded to in this thread, Midsummer is a time for commitment, a time when Nature is at its peak, a time when energy is quite freely available. Andrews works with angels. By all means think of your own spirits as being closer at this time.
