Happy winter solstice. My favorite night.
I love how tonight, the longest night of the year, is also the coldest. and it snowed. The snow brings an eerie quiet. I do wish I could have spent some time outside but we have negative temps right now and a crazy wind chill. My quick dash outside to breathe in some of that cold crisp air and then back inside to the warmth is going to have to suffice.
I didn’t light a fire nor did I bake anything today. but I did do my candles and set my intentions and a few other of my little winter night rituals.
Damn I really should have done a fire. I guess it’s not too late. I’ll go do one now for a little bit and then go to sleep. Gone are the days when I could stay awake all night. plus I have work tomorrow and blah blah blah.
If you’re looking to read a gorgeous solstice/Yule story, I recommend half spent was the night. It’s a sequel of sorts but you don’t need to have read the first book. It makes it more interesting tho.
Now the wheel turns and we begin to move to the light.
But I love this time between solstice and New Years. Happy Yule to you.
