How are those of us who follow the old ways celebrating this year?
We will start feasting on the 17th with friends over and watching the morris fire festival, then shamanic drumming in the solstice and open house for friends and family until new year  |

I’ll be having a traditional Victorian Christmas, sending young children up the chimney and sticking pins in their feet until it’s as clean as a whistle. |

Last year all the gifts I sent out we're hand made but this year I'm working too much to have time, but Yule isn't really about the gifts (although the kids would disagree lol), it's about spending time with loved ones, keeping warm and sharing food during the darkest days and celebrating the return of the lighter nights and regrowth. |

I agree I enjoy spending time with people who enjoy life and I like long warm days |
