Episode 385: Celebrate Summer Solstice
In feng shui, the Summer Solstice marks the peak of yang energy—the longest day and shortest night of the year in the Northern Hemisphere. While it is often thought of as the beginning of summer, the Chinese solar calendar recognizes it as the height of the season, when fire qi is at its strongest. This powerful moment is associated with abundance, vitality, visibility, and growth. In this episode, we explore the significance of the Summer Solstice through the lens of feng shui and holistic living, and share practical ways to celebrate the season and align with its expansive energy.
What we talk about in this episode:
Key dates to look out for this month in the moon cycle and the Chinese solar term
