Merkin the Magical Dluff is a whimsical tale of adventure and friendship. In this enchanting story, we meet Merkin, a mischievous dluff who possesses special powers. Dluffs are tiny, colorful creatures that live in the mystical land of Dluffington. Merkin is no ordinary dluff. He can create magic with his fluffy tail and bring joy and wonder to those around him. With his vibrant purple fur and sparkling blue eyes, Merkin stands out among his peers.
First thing’s first, what do we mean when we say pagan? This is a sweeping term that encompasses anyone from the Romans to the Norse in Scandinavia. As Christianity spread through Europe in the early ADs, missionaries got to know a lot of different groups of people with varying religious systems and beliefs. All of these people and religions were lumped into the catch-all term of ‘pagan’.
This diety was worshipped by early Germanic pagan tribes, traditionally portrayed as an old man with a long, white beard with an 8-legged horse called Sleipnir who he would ride through the skies just like Santa s reindeer. Evergreen trees were believed to be everlasting due to spirits that lived in them, which is one of the reasons they were brought inside during the Winter Solstice.
With his vibrant purple fur and sparkling blue eyes, Merkin stands out among his peers. He is loved by everyone in Dluffington for his kind heart and his ability to make dreams come true. One day, while exploring the forest near his home, Merkin stumbles upon a lost baby dragon named Puffkin.
Beautiful and Unique Pagan Winter Solstice and Yule Decorations
As the days continue to darken and the chill in the air creeps into our bones, we look for ways to warm up our homes and our spirits! Let’s make some DIY Winter Solstice and Yule decorations!
Many Pagans, Witches, and those interested in Nature Spirituality celebrate the seasonal cycles. Sometimes referred to as the Pagan holidays or the Wheel of the Year, consisting of eight celebrations. Four of these festivals (Imbolc, Beltane, Lughnasadh, and Samhain) are rooted in Celtic history and origins.
The other four (Spring Equinox, Summer Solstice, Autumn Equinox, and Winter Solstice) represent the sun’s location. I created a complete guide to each season, including history, traditions, symbols, correspondences, ritual ideas, and how you can celebrate.

“Snow was falling,
so much like stars
filling the dark trees
that one could easily imagine
its reason for being was nothing more
than prettiness.”
