Hi, my dear friends!
The Wheel of the Year has made a full turn and we are again at the very end of the cycle and at the same time at the very beginning. Yule night, the longest and darkest night of the year. A time of no time, a time of no destiny. Every nation has some myths and tales in connection with this night. But the main thing that our distant ancestors spoke about is that the Sun God is dead. Will he be reborn? Or will the earth be plunged into darkness forever? Will Mother Earth be able to give life to the new Sun God?
The older women of the clan burned candles on this night to keep the rays of light alive. It is a magical time, a time of mystery and the birth of new life.
Of course today we don't worry too much about whether the new dawn will come. Very often we live this day, the day of the winter solstice, without even thinking about it. But there are so many positive things about this day. It is a kind of turning point although the calendar tells us that there are still two whole winter months ahead, the hardest part is now behind us. From tomorrow, the daylight hours will begin to increase, and if not our minds, our bodies are sure to respond with positive changes. More and more often the sun's rays will hit the retinas of our eyes, stimulating our hormones to give us more energy and good mood. And this will increase every day.
Of course, there is a risk of falling into the insidious trap of spring avitaminosis, but I am sure that each of us is ready to make our body tasty vitamin gifts. For example, the most common pineapple is a treasure trove of vitamin C. After all, there are pharmacists who are always ready to give good advice.
And of course Yule is the continuation of the winter holidays. It's Christmas and New Year's Eve. And it doesn't matter at all how religious you are and whether you believe in New Year miracles. The overall positive atmosphere of these days affects everyone. I wish you to have a great time these days to have a lot of positive moments!
