Radiance Rising: A Crystal-Centered Guide to the Summer Solstice & Seasonal Practices
The Summer Solstice, also known as Litha in Earth-based traditions, is when the sun reaches its highest point in the sky—bringing the longest day and shortest night of the year. This turning point celebrates the full power of light, life, and personal vitality.
Spiritually, it’s a time to pause and honor your growth, reconnect with your truth, and work with the expansive, activating energy of summer. Whether through ritual, quiet reflection, or simply feeling more connected to the natural world, this is your moment to realign and radiate from within.

What Is the Summer Solstice (Litha)?
Falling between June 20–22, the solstice has long been honored as a sacred time across many cultures. From bonfires and feasts to modern-day reflection and intention-setting, it marks a season of abundance, radiance, and spiritual illumination.
In contemporary practice, Litha invites us to celebrate our inner fire—recognizing how far we’ve come and where we’re headed next. It’s the ideal time to anchor your energy, express gratitude, and move forward with clarity and heart.

Crystal Care Tips for Summer
- Sun-safe: Sunstone, Orange Calcite, Golden Healer (brief exposure only)
- Keep shaded: Chrysoprase, Aragonite (may fade in strong sunlight or degrade in water)
- Cleanse your crystals before rituals to start with fresh energy, and again after if they’ve absorbed heavy emotions or feel energetically dense. We recommend using selenite, palo santo, or sage—since many summer stones are not water-safe and may fade or crack in sunlight.
Affirmations for the Season:
- I shine with clarity, joy, and purpose.
- This is my time to grow and glow.
- I welcome the light within and around me.
- I am grounded, guided, and grateful.
