Happy Solstice!
My thoughts on this time of year. Well I do have a tree and lights, but I am more pagan on my stance. I want to hold the sun's spirit alive.
I feel that this time of year is too much about getting and less on giving.
I have the ever green for the tree druid energy represented in my house and to honor the dying and risen Gods.
The Victorians told lots of Ghost stories at this time of year, and it is a good time to read books about sacred trees. One of my favorite stories for this time of year is The little mach stick girl.
In most places, this is the season of death, were a long time ago you would hope to just survive through the winter. Now we don't have to worry about any of that shit, just wonder if we can make it to the next present and drink. Ha Ha, isn't life different.
Well I do think it is a good time to spend with family, laughing about stuff, magickal or otherwise.
Ah I have the next two weeks off, and I can do things that I need to get done.
I must recharge the battery for the next semester of school.
I am almost through with children, and can take care of my needs for a time.
People freak out about this time of year too much.
Enjoy and have a good time, or it is not worth it.
