Together, we'll chant some mantras to release all that is no longer needed or serving us (release old energies from 2022, and make way for new energies coming in on the Solstice and the upcoming New Year), as well as some Solar mantras and Gayatri mantra to connect with the Sun at its southernmost point in its yearly cycle. And as we invoke the solar energy, tuning into the beginning of a new return as the days begin to grow longer again (in the Northern Hemisphere).
