Winter Solstice - Yule | | Winter Solstice - Yule: December 21 - Winter Solstice -
Yule | | December 21 - Winter Solstice - Yule 'Yule' means 'wheel', for now the wheel of the year has reached a turning point, with the longest night of the year. This is the seedpoint of the solar year, mid-winter, time of greatest darkness when we seek within ourselves to comprehend our true nature. In virtually all Pagan religions, this is the night the Great Mother Goddess gives birth to the baby Sun God, because from this day forward, the days begin to lengthen, light is waxing. The Christian religion adopted this theme as the birthday of Jesus, calling it 'Christmas'. The alternative fixed calendar date of December 25th (called 'Old Yule' by some Covens) occurs because, before various calendar changes, that was the date of the solstice. | | | Spiritual, Spirituality, Spiritual Practices, Spiritual Traditions, Beliefs, Religions, Body Mind Soul, Body, Mind Spirit, Halloween, Paganism, Pagan, Mysticism, Religious Traditions, Traditions, Spiritual Rituals, , Witchcraft Belief, Witchcraft Beliefs, Witchcraft Practice, Witchcraft Practices, Witchcraft Philosophy, Witchcraft Worship, Wicca Belief, Wicca Beliefs, Wicca Practice, Wicca Practices, Wicca Philosophy, Wicca Worship, Witchcraft Ritual, Witchcraft Rituals, Witchcraft Ceremony, Witchcraft Ceremonies, Witchcraft Rite, Witchcraft Rites, Wicca Ritual, Wicca Rituals, Wicca Ceremony, Wicca Ceremonies, Wicca Rite, Wicca Rites, Celts, Celtic, Celts, Celtic, Wicca, Wiccan, Witch, Witchcraft, Facts about Wicca, Fact about Wicca, Information on Wicca, Article on Wicca, Articles on Wicca, Wicca Mythology, Wicca History, Wicca Teachings, Wicca Practice, Wicca Practices, Wicca Philosophy, Info on Wicca, Wicca Religion, Wicca Belief, Wicca Beliefs, Facts about Wiccan, Fact about Wiccan, Information on Wiccan, Article on Wiccan, Articles on Wiccan, Wicca Wiccan, Wiccan History, Wiccan Teachings, Wiccan Practice, Wiccan Practices, Wiccan Philosophy, Info on Wiccan, Wiccan Religion, Wiccan Belief, Wiccan Beliefs, Facts about Witchcraft, Fact about Witchcraft, Information on Witchcraft, Article on Witchcraft, Articles on Witchcraft, Witchcraft Witchcraft, Witchcraft History, Witchcraft Teachings, Witchcraft Practice, Witchcraft Practices, Witchcraft Philosophy, Info on Witchcraft, Witchcraft Religion, Witchcraft Belief, Witchcraft Beliefs, Wiccan Holidays, Wicca Holidays, Witchcraft Holidays, Pagan Holidays | | |
