I couldn’t put the guitar down after working on my latest track, so I thought I’d experiment with using it to create a track that radiates an upbeat summer mood. You know, that feeling of going on holiday and heading to the beach with the sun shining on your face.

I drew inspiration from the Rider-Waite Tarot card “19 - The Sun” to create the track. That card radiates pure joy and happiness and is often a predictor of good things to come. It’s also the card I pulled prior to picking up the guitar that morning.

After working on dark ambient tracks for so long, it’s tough to shake that darker vibe, but this one brings a glimmer of hope, which is something I think the world needs right now.

Close your eyes and feel the warmth of the sun on your skin as you unite with the cosmos. Let the joy of the Summer Solstice fill your heart, painting your lips with an ever-radiant smile.

Summer Solstice

The summer solstice, a radiant jewel in the cosmic dance, is a sacred celebration of light and life. As the Earth tilts its northern hemisphere closest to the sun, we bask in the longest day of the year, a time when the sun's rays touch our hearts with the deepest warmth. This celestial event marks a peak of solar energy, a moment of unparalleled illumination that ignites our spirits and aligns our souls with the universe's boundless energy.

In this moment of celestial alignment, we embrace the interconnectedness of all beings, the unity of our planet, and the boundless potential within us. The summer solstice is a time to celebrate life in its fullest expression, to honor the sun, and to step forward, radiant and renewed, into the next phase of our journey.

Ecstatic Dance for the Summer Solstice

Ecstatic Dance journey- starts slow and builds into the dance fire. Enjoy xo

Ecstatic Dance June 22 DJ Ariana Bates

Join us for the first in a series of sacred music celebrations at Commonweal, presented in collaboration with long-time Commonweal friend Toby Symington. Held at the solstice and equinox, the concerts—and gatherings afterward—are designed to bring people together in a convivial setting around music which delights, inspires, and elevates the soul. The performing artists are highly accomplished musicians who are deeply in touch with the numinous dimension of reality. In this first concert of the series, join us for a piano concert from Maryliz Smith, including pieces of her own composition as well as other inspiring and sacred music.

From Maryliz:
“I have traveled the world as a performance artist, collaborating with remarkable individuals such as David Whyte, Brian Swimme, Matthew Fox and Joanna Macy, using music as a sacred art to create optimal conditions for diverse groups to more easily access collective intelligence using reflections, stories and music dedicated specifically for the gathering at hand. I have come out of a virtuosic, classical tradition as a concert organist with a signature sound that is a contemplative, post-minimalist style, often using the acoustic piano to draw listeners into the complex landscape of their emotions where ‘the mind has no defense.’”

Maryliz Smith
Coming out of a virtuosic, classical tradition as a concert organist, Maryliz’s signature sound is one of post-minimalism, using both acoustic and electroacoustic keyboards to draw listeners into a complexity of emotions. She is inspired by single moments that can change the trajectory of a life, a living system, a culture, and she translates these into musical language, a language she describes as her first.

Maryliz is also co-founder of Commonweal Cancer Help Programs' sister center, Callanish, a non-profit organization based in Vancouver, B.C. dedicated to creating space for people who have been irrevocably changed by cancer. She contributes her arts-based perspective, in company with a remarkable team, to provide a gentle catalyst for people to move as deeply as they wish into themselves to reconnect with the essentials of life.

2024:06.23 - Maryliz Smith - Festival of Sacred Music Piano Concert

Long-time musical collaborators Mariah Parker (piano, santur) and Matthew Montfort (scalloped fretboard guitar) share their unique blend of captivating music that is sure to uplift. Performing original compositions inspired by the musical cultures of Spain, Brazil and India mixed with the contemporary colors of jazz, the duo creates a mesmerizing sound that has been described by concert goers as ‘absolutely spellbinding’ ‘dazzling and unforgettable’ and ‘a transporting experience.’

Mariah Parker
Mariah Parker has been playing music from the time she could reach the keys on the grand piano in her family home. As a composer, pianist and bandleader her work crosses cultural boundaries with an exuberant quest for defying musical labels or categorization. Her academic tenure at UC Santa Cruz was distinguished by her involvement with ethnomusicologist Fred Lieberman and the iconic drummer Mickey Hart on the “Planet Drum” project, marking her early foray into the fusion of musical traditions. Her discography began with the critically acclaimed Sangria in February 2009, followed by Indo Latin Jazz Live in Concert in 2017 and Windows Through Time in 2024. The last two albums have both enjoyed months of prominence on the National Jazzweek Airplay chart and been celebrated globally for their innovative soundscapes and compositional brilliance.

Windows Through Time (released June, 2024)
“One of the most beautiful and surprising releases of 2024” — Thierry De Clemensat, US correspondent – Paris-Move and ABS magazine

“Genre-bending brilliance….with Windows Through Time, Mariah Parker cements her position as a leading voice in contemporary music” — Jazz Sensibilities

Matthew Montfort
Matthew Montfort is the leader of the innovative world fusion group Ancient Future, and a pioneer of the scalloped fretboard guitar, an instrument combining qualities of the South Indian vina and the steel string guitar. Montfort studied intensively with vina master K.S. Subramanian in order to apply the note-bending techniques to the guitar. In 2012, he was added to the 100 Greatest Acoustic Guitarists list at http://DigitalDreamDoor.com , joining luminaries such as Michael Hedges, Chet Atkins, John Fahey, and John Renbourn. Montfort has recorded with legendary world music figures ranging from Bolivian panpipe master Gonzalo Vargas to tabla maestros Swapan Chaudhuri and Zakir Hussain. He has performed concerts worldwide, including the Festival Internacional de la Guitarra on the Golden Coast of Spain near Barcelona and the Mumbai Festival at the Gateway of India in Bombay.

2025:01.05 - Mariah Parker & Matthew Montfort Duo: Festival of Sacred Music

Infused with the spirit of ancient solstice ceremonies, this set calls upon forgotten rituals, solar chants, and earth-born frequencies once shared beneath stone circles and sacred groves. Yet its gaze also turns forward, toward a luminous future shaped by advanced sound technologies, intricate sonic textures, and quantum-layered tones that stretch the limits of consciousness.

This mix channels the ancient echoes of solstice ceremonies, where druids, mystics, and earth-dwellers once danced around fires in reverence to the sun’s peak. Their wisdom lives on in tribal rhythms and ceremonial tones—woven seamlessly into future-facing sound design born of starlight, algorithmic composition, and quantum resonance.

Tune-in to the sonic channel of energetic transmission. A celebration of planetary awakening, where bioluminescent frequencies dance with solar flares, and ancient druidic codes are decoded through modern circuitry. Let the vibrations recalibrate your internal compass as you realign with Gaia’s heartbeat and the solar pulse of evolution.

Welcome to the future of ceremony.
Welcome to the sound of solstice reborn.

“SUMMER’S NEW VIBRATIONS - The Solstice”!   

The June solstice chart serves as a powerful seed chart, unveiling profound themes that resonate all summer long. Dive into the cosmic dance of the summer solstice with Master Vibrational Astrology (VA) author, researcher, and instructor Linda Berry, alongside Robert Pacitti. Through the lens of VA, they unravel the intricate core patterns that shape our collective consciousness during this vibrant season.  

The June solstice chart acts as a seed, planting themes that will flourish throughout the summer months. On June 21st at 02:42 UTC (or June 20th at 10:42 p.m. EDT for those on the USA East Coast), the sun will reach its northernmost point in the sky. This moment marks when it enters 0° Cancer, ushering in the longest day and shortest night in the Northern Hemisphere.

“On June 21, 2025, at precisely 02:42 UTC (10:42 p.m. EDT on June 20 for those on the USA East Coast), we witness this celestial pause, known as SOL-STICE, from Latin roots means when the sun "stops" and hovers over the northern Tropic of Cancer. It marks a time when daylight stretches to its fullest, casting long shadows and igniting our spirits with warmth and possibility”, said Sue Minahan host of the weekly show.

“Embraced as a spiritual portal to celebrate abundance, the summer solstice is often marked by traditional bonfires lighting up the night sky— ancient fire rituals to symbolize manifestation and renewal. Join us as we explore these vibrant energies through VA's unique lens and embrace the solstice energy portal for this season's potential!”
