# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Winter Solstice: Welcoming the Return of the Light
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 21 Jun, 2026 at 10:00 am
- **Event Description**: While much attention is given to the winter solstice in the northern hemisphere, here in our part of the world we are invited into our own sacred season of reflection and renewal. The longest night of the year offers more than darkness—it becomes a powerful spiritual symbol of stillness, inner listening, and the quiet promise of new light emerging.

In the spirit of Unity teachings, we recognise that divine light is never absent; it lives within us, waiting to be revealed in every season of life. Winter invites us to pause, release what no longer serves, and open to fresh possibilities, deeper wisdom, and renewed inspiration.

As we gather in contemplative practice, we will also honour this turning point as preparation for the season of Matariki—a time of remembrance, gratitude, and conscious intention for what is yet to unfold.

Join us for our June Contemplative Service and experience a sacred space for reflection, renewal, and awakening to the light within.

? Sunday 21st June
? 10:00am
? Lake House Arts Centre, 37 Fred Thomas Drive, Takapuna
