I've loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night

My Yule Ritual

A blog that describes my morning on yule. 

I woke up at 5:55 am, before my 6:00 am alarm. I was so excited, I woke up several times in the night to look at the clock and make sure I didn’t wake up late. 

I layered on four skirts, black leggings, two sweaters and my winter coat. When I finally made it outside, it was still dark. I gathered all my magical items on my altar table and set up the candles by the light of my flashlight. Next, the fire was built so that I could light it as soon as the sun rose.

I cast a protective circle, called the elements and sat down to watch the sunrise. My coffee warmed my hands and the steam brushed my face. A plate of cookies sat nearby. Blankets were piled around my shoulders. 

The sun touched the tree tops around me. They blazed like a torch. A signal that it was time to light the fire. I lit my yule log that had my hopes and wishes drawn in chalk.

I chanted a passage from my book of shadows. It spoke of the lengthening days and the end of the longest night. 

Watching the sunrise was one of the most special moments of my life. I watched the sky turn from light blue, to pink, to orange, to blazing yellow. I felt the power of the rising sun run through my body. It left me feeling tingly and warm.

I cast a future happiness spell and filed my cauldron with pine branches and clear quartz.

I sat, covered in blankets, and watched the world brighten little by little. The fire continued to burn happily. All was beautiful and peaceful. The birds sang. I heard a roosters call in the distance. The cold wind bit at my nose. My outstretched fingers warmed by the fire. The sweet taste of jam cookies lingered in my mouth.

I felt happy and alive. The wheel of the year continued to turn. 

Blessed Solstice.

Moon Soulmates

I became inspired by Hollywood Undead’s Bad Moon, and even though it’s rather about loneliness, I felt about drawing a strong bond. They weren’t supposed to imply to any specific characters, but in the end I have added some really minimalistic symbols to the trio - so they stand for Oz&Elliot&Leo. I can also imagine the two other doodles above as Elliot and Leo embracing each other. Especially Elliot being the full moon, and Leo the newmoon.
