On the eve of the solstice we step into the driest time of the year, summer We are certainly feeling the heat of the sun and praying for those evening showers that give our gardens that healthful soaking they crave. Roses are in full bloom and it’s floral essence will be dotting in and out of this weeks menu. Cooking will become a little lighter, produce will travel 1 mile down the road instead of across country from more temperate climates. As summer ripens into its fullness the rising potential energy of spring buds explode into realized maturity. Summer is symbolized by the radiant energy of fire. Bitter flavors from dryer weather support the heart and small intestine meridians as well as the heart governor and triple warmer. The small intestine acts as the furnace of alchemical transmutation, transforms our food into blood. It is here that chlorophyll evolves into hemoglobin. The heart, the radiant sun of the body, circulates the red blood throughout the system and with it, rays of warmth and love.
