The solstice is felt by many as the fading of the outside world, when time stops and one day is similar to another. At the same time, the internal movement in the individual microcosm becomes more intense, interesting, significant. It is no coincidence that these days people of different ethnic groups perform traditional mystical rituals to sum up the results of the past year, to free themselves from all unnecessary, obsolete (thoughts, things, diseases, relationships). One's own life comes to the fore, a person rises before the eyes of Eternity and goes through the judgment of his own conscience. The coming new must be entered clean.
Karachun is the name of the period of the winter Solstice among the Slavic peoples, when daylight almost dies, and people need internal efforts, optimism and purity of thoughts to survive this dark and cold period, the most difficult of the year. The ancient pagan god Chernobog, he is also Karachun, he is the fabulous Koschey the Immortal (Bones), he is also the Christmas Lord Frost - the owner of this mystical time. Astrological Saturn, the ruler of time and order, coming into force with the energies of Capricorn, is the main figure in this period. A person will go to the upper or lower world, or will continue a further earthly journey, it is invisibly decided at this time. Here is a bifurcation point, a fabulous stone at a crossroads, and here a person will inevitably have to follow the prescription of his fate. In any case, you need to cleanseprepare for a new stage of your existence in the continuous chain of Being, in the eternal journey of the soul through the worlds. Nothing belongs to us in this world, but we are partakers of everything that exists, since the essence of man is the Eternal Spirit!
Not only the winter chill, but also the cold of deep space is felt on the days of the Solstice. These are "days of open doors" between worlds, when the Earth's axis of rotation coincides with the axis of the Galaxy, and the interpenetration of the energy of the Earth, Solar and Galactic order, hierarchical alignment, synchronization of vibrations take place. At this time, each person can feel how much his state corresponds to world harmony, sacred commandments, the semantic motives of Life itself. There is time to calm down "amid the noisy ball" of daily affairs and think about the main thing, about the Eternal.
The doors between the worlds are open and the abode of people these days can be visited by beings of other civilizations, other dimensions, other spheres of the multi-storey Universe. It is believed that on the darkest days of the year, light angels come to the aid of people from the higher worlds. At this time, Christ is born - the savior of people from external and internal darkness (which is important!). The joyful meeting of the Nativity of Christ echoes the ancient traditions of the celebration of the Solstice, the addition of light, renewal in nature and in the soul. The Christmas tree is a symbol of a multilevel Universe, at the top of which a Star shines, emitting light to the world, Divine light! This pyramidal, hierarchically folded structure is matrix, universal for our life and all its manifestations. By accepting it, the human community is properly organized,and each person is harmoniously structured in the world of values.
Astrological New Year and Christmas are naturally associated with the Winter Solstice. These days of alignment of the Earth, the Sun and the center of the Galaxy bring us new energies, new civilizational impulses, a person looks at the world with new eyes and tries to understand who he is about himself. Cheerful celebrations, meetings, feasts are simply necessary, they make it possible to see and feel that we are all one in the eyes of God! The community of people is strengthening and universal human values are rising, the main of which is all-pervading love!
I wish all of us good health and an optimistic mood, in order to pay off all our "debts" correctly, to undergo a cleansing with dignity and to enter the new year with a clear, pure state of mind!
