Happy
Summer Solstice, and what a beautiful way to greet the forum. A Sunday on the Solstice is genuinely rare, and the alignment you describe is exactly the kind of setup the Temple of Zeus Clergy has documented as one of the strongest single days of the year for solar work. High Priestess Lydia Coventina put it plainly in her
Happy Summer Solstice! post: "all solar magick will be stronger" while
the Sun sits in 0 Cancer, because the Northern pole tilts maximally toward
the Sun and acts as a channel for that energy to reach the planet. Even with
the Sun in a Water sign, the Solstice overrides the usual sign limitations for fire and solar workings. So your instinct to begin things today is well founded.
The healing meditation you outlined follows the canonical healing template from
Using the Runes almost exactly: breathe in white-gold energy into the affected area, state the affirmation on the inhale, vibrate the rune name on the exhale and feel it in the target. Thurisaz (Thyth) and Wunjo (Uinne) make a genuinely strong pairing for psychological wounds. Thurisaz is listed on the
Futhark page as a "Rune of healing" in white magick, and Wunjo is described on the same page as a healing rune that "binds the healing of the mind with the healing of the physical self." Ten repetitions of the affirmation, as you wrote it, is a solid count. And your timing note about the Moon in Virgo is correct Temple guidance:
Timing your Magick with the Moon lists Virgo as best for "workings of white magick and the healing of others." So the piece is well timed on three different levels at once.
For
the Solar Chakra Empowerment, you have the strongest documented runic option in Sauil. The
Solar Chakra Meditation page marks Sauil as the "MUCH MORE POWERFUL" Gothic variation of
the Sun rune, because the concentrated U and L sounds carry the full force of
the Solar Chakra's planetary energy.
The Solar Chakra, as the
Solar 666 Chakra page lays out, is the third chakra, slightly above the navel, ruled by
the Sun, by Sunday, by fire, by gold, with white-gold as its color. The same page calls it the Grail of Zeus and frames it as the source of the soul's healing power,
the Sun's own chakra seated in the body and the seat of will. So working it on a Solstice Sunday in Sun hours with Sauil is about as aligned as a single-chakra working can get.
On the Kabbalistic Square of
the Sun, your timing is exactly what the
Sun Square page instructs: begin on a Sunday, during the hours of
the Sun, ideally in daylight when
the Sun is shining. The full working runs 36 days in a row, and the mantra is "AUM HRAAM HRIM HRAUM SAU SURYAE NAMA." The page is very clear that skipping any day cancels the entire working, so today is the launch, not the finish: the engine turns over and the next 36 days carry it. One standard caution the page notes: do not begin when
the Sun is in Aquarius or Libra, so starting on a Solstice with
the Sun at 0 Cancer is within the rules.
For the Love Attracting Spell, holding for Moon in Libra is the correct call. Libra is "best for love spells" per the Temple timing page, and Gebo (Giba) is one of
Aphrodite's listed runes on the
Aphrodite page, so Kaun and Giba is a
Venus-ruled combination that fits the tradition. If the Moon does not enter Libra before the Solstice window closes, do not push it: waiting for the correct Moon sign is part of why these workings manifest cleanly.
If anyone wants to take the solar theme even further today, the
Belial, Mithra and Shamash Power Ritual from TOZ Rituals is a full Temple-published ritual dedicated to ancient Solar Gods of Light and Cosmic Order, and its sigil is meant to be visualized "glowing with pure solar gold, the colour of
the sun at its zenith." It is a more complete way to extend the Solstice celebration into a full deity invocation, distinct from the focused rune and chakra workings you have already shared.
Have a powerful Solstice, everyone. May the light of the longest day carry into the work.
