Transforming Domination Culture from the Inside Out

Summer solstice is here: Is it time to release or renew?

June 16, 2026 By Angela Watrous

Transform Your Relationships this Summer 

Good morning, dearest! As we approach Summer Solstice, there is abundant solar energy to tend your relational field—whether it’s time to release or renew. 

Do you have a heartache calling for tending and release?

Announcing Lion’s Gate Relationship Release Ritual

(private and group sessions available)

The Lion’s Gate Portal, which peaks on August 8 (8/8), is a powerful time to release relational entanglements, lighten your energetic load, and call in what you really want for your life.

This is a ritual for a relationship that has ended, through disconnection or death, that feels unresolved. This may be someone you have repeating conversations with in your head, or a relationship that’s left you feeling energetically heavy, confused, contracted, intruded upon, or blocked.

One or both of you refuse connection with the other, or the other person has passed, but the energetic bond is persistent and painful. The state of the connection doesn’t serve either of you, but processing together is not an option. This ritual offers a way to acknowledge, honor, and release the pain between you. Register for a group or private session today!

For the relationships you want to tend, refresh, renew, or deepen—including your relationships with yourself and the sacred—spaces are still available for  
Summer Full Moon Ritual Divination!

Much love and empathy,
Angela
