Today, 12/21/2019, 11:19p.m., marks the Winter Solstice. The day with the shortest period of daylight, and the longest night of the year, it also marks the first day of winter. In Pagan times it was referred to as Yule and was a celebration of the Goddess (moon) energy. Since prehistory, this time has been marked by festivals and celebrations, and seen as important and meaningful.

Speaking of family traditions for the past few days has made me remember some special solstice crafts and recipes. Click HERE for some good ideas - maybe I'll share one next year!

Enjoy winter break everyone! I hope your days together - however you spend them - are filled with joy and lots of laughter, along with peaceful moments as well. See you in January!
