A Summer Solstice sermon
Today I delivered a sermon on the Summer Solstice at our Unitarian Universalist congregation. I'm not a minister, just an occasional lay leader. It discusses how Midsummer was traditionally the focus of rituals for fertility and abundance in crops. And how genetically modified seeds may run counter to that fertility.

It's posted in the Astrology forum, if you're interested.

1. Thank you for cross-posting this. I enjoyed the sermon very much.
I am not pagan or anything right now. Being divorced from my church. Still learning. But what you said feels so right to me. Can you imagine living in an agrarian society? Seems like heaven. Thanks again.
