Exploring Yuletide Traditions: From mistletoe to yule logs, uncovering the ancient customs

By admin

Yule and magic are interconnected in many ways, and in the year 2022, this connection will be especially powerful. Yule, also known as the Winter Solstice, is a time of the year when the days are the shortest and the nights the longest. It marks the turning point of the year, where the darkness begins to give way to the light. This symbolism of the return of the light is deeply intertwined with the practice of magic. In 2022, Yule and magic will align to create a potent energy that can be harnessed for personal transformation and manifestation. Yule is a time of introspection and reflection, where we can delve deep within ourselves and shed light on our shadow aspects.
