This year the winter solstice is at 11:30pm (CST). This
marks the longest night of the year. After the apex of the solstice the days
will progressively get longer and the nights will grow shorter. I am looking
forward to the upcoming year, which will begin after tonight’s solstice.
Though this sounds good, having grown up in Wisconsin and
now living in Arizona, I have noticed that the winter months of January and
February feel like the longest and coldest part of winter. These months after
the celebration of Yule, seem to be the time to hunker down and plow through
the cold.
As a child I remember the energy of magick and wonder of the
Yule time season as it progressed through the last part of autumn nearing
winter. I have had a difficult time experiencing that feeling of magic as an
adult. This is the first year I have felt that magick stirring in the air. I
think it has to do with being able to see the mountains covered in snow this
year.

This summer there was a huge fire that cleared the mountains
of most of the larger trees. We have had more snow this year in the mountains
than we have had in several years; at least it looks that way because there
aren’t the tall trees covering the snow fall.
What brings the magick of the season into your life this
year?
Have a Wicked Good Day!
