Greetings darklings:
Are you ready for the holidays? I am! Yes I have been busy finishing the Arwen dress, and getting ready for the holidays. I baked a banana bread, pumpkin bread and I baked a Yuletide bread. I am not done my baking. I’ve sent out all my gifts. I got gifts for my friends, my cat, my Mom. I have everything I need for a lovely Yule meal. In fact I don’t know what to do with all the food I have. I am truly blessed. I even have plenty of holiday alcohol. I am more fortunate than most and I am grateful for it.
There’s no snow on the ground. We’ve been getting plenty of rain. But I am in the spirit for winter solstice. I decorated my apartment. I sewed myself a new lovely tablecloth which is actually two green tablecloths and one has a snowflake pattern. So I have sent out all the gifts, decorated, baked, bought the groceries I need. I was even gifted a nice bottle of rum!
The best news is the Canada Post strike is over! I get my Herbal Academy Intermediate level textbooks tomorrow! I finally received my black demon hand book stand. I am so happy about that. Due to the strike, I had to wait forever to receive my mail like a million others.
I am hoping for a nice dry winter solstice night. I want the weather to cooperate. I want to fire up my cauldron and burn herbs. The herbs like pine needles, pinecones, juniper, cedar, cinnamon and maybe sage. If the weather doesn’t cooperate, then I can try the next night. I think the weather is totally unpredictable. But if it does stay calm, then I am definitely holding a bonfire on Winter Solstice! I mean it is so perfect for the Sabbat! Oh I hope the weather permits!
I watched a witchy video that suggested a few rituals and spells and divination to try on the Winter Solstice. I want to try them! I love celebrating the winter solstice. It is in 2 days and I can’t wait. I am ready and so excited!
Blessings Spiderwitch
