... the seasonal wheel, that is.
Winter begins on Thursday, December 21st at 7:21 p.m. And asThursday is the shortest day of the year, we then begin the six-month journey towards Midsummer's Eve, the longest day of the year.
I always look towards February 1st, because then I can really notice the lengthening of the days.
As for now, I try to celebrate the darkness, this cocooning time of year. It's a time to burn candles, a time for lots of holiday lights and the resulting glow on loved ones' faces. It's also a time for reflection, quietness and anticipation of what is to come.
