Description
Join us for a transformative class as we embrace the magic of the Winter Solstice, the longest night of the year, and celebrate Yule, the ancient festival of rebirth, light, and renewal. This is a time when the earth’s energy rests and recharges, and we, too, can pause to reflect, release, and plant the seeds of our intentions for the year ahead.
The Winter Solstice marks a powerful turning point—where darkness gives way to light—and offers us an opportunity to look inward, reconnect with our deepest desires, and prepare for the energy shift toward growth and renewal. In this class, we will explore the significance of this sacred time, learning about the ancient traditions and symbolism of Yule, as well as the ways in which we can harness this seasonal energy for personal transformation.
What We’ll Explore:
The meaning and symbolism of the Winter Solstice and Yule in different cultures and spiritual practices.
The purpose of the Sabbat and how we can honor it in our own lives—aligning with nature’s rhythms for deeper connection and intentional living.
How to work with the elements of the season, particularly Fire, to ignite our hopes, dreams, and desires for the coming year.
A Sacred Ritual: Launch Your Wishes with Fire
As part of our celebration, we will engage in a hands-on activity designed to help you channel your intentions for the year ahead using the Fire Element—the transformative force that cleanses, purifies, and propels us into new beginnings.
In this ritual, you will:
Write Your Wishes: Reflect on your dreams and desires for the upcoming year. Write them down on small pieces of paper—whether it's personal goals, aspirations, or areas where you seek growth and healing.
Prepare Your Pine Cone: Each participant will receive a pine cone, a symbol of life’s cycles, resilience, and the natural world’s wisdom. Pine cones represent the seed of potential, waiting for the right moment to unfold.
Bundle Your Intentions: Carefully roll your written wishes into tiny scrolls and tuck them into the crevices of the pine cone. Each roll is a seed of intention, filled with hope and desire.
Once you’ve prepared your pine cone, you’ll take it home to complete the final step of your ritual: burning it privately. The flames will carry your wishes into the universe, transforming your desires into powerful energy that propels you forward. Fire represents purification and manifestation, allowing you to release your wishes into the cosmos and set them into motion.
