- (1888PressRelease) June 09, 2012 - Streaming live on the Co-Creator Radio Network on Tuesday, June 12, at 11 a.m. Pacific time/2 p.m. Eastern time, on her show "Why Shamanism Now?: A Practical Path to Authenticity," shaman and founder of the Last Mask Center for Shamanic Healing Christina Pratt notes that the summer solstice is a time of fullness, expression, and manifestation in the physical world. And yet, in the frenzy of summer vacations, weekend getaways, summer lovers, and the drug-infused blaze of Burning Man, we forget entirely why we are here.
In this episode of "Why Shamanism Now?" titled "Nourishing Destiny", Pratt helps listeners to remember. It is our habit as contemporary people to go toward excess and indulgence: to spend too much, outreach our grasp, and start off where we have not yet begun. According to Pratt, this is the misunderstanding of the great, warm wealth of summer, the waste of our true yang resources. Pratt advises that we must learn to invest well in the seeds of our authentic true nature offered up by our Dreamer Manifestor and planted in the earth ritual at the spring equinox. Summer is the time of the Heart, of full sun, and of the god/goddess united at the Solstice. Pratt suggests that before you light the traditional Solstice fire to dance, rejoice, and celebrate life with your community, consider the plants of purpose you are tending. What do you love enough to bring to life? It is time to nourish your destiny with the deep songs, longings, and visions of your heart and your own inner reflection of Divine Unity.
