The Wild Hunt (https://wildhunt.org/tag/holidays)
I love December because it is a fresh way to stop being shackled to the past. Choosing to have difficult conversations with yourself allows a freedom to reassess a true sense of who you are and your own memories.
Four years on from the loss of her daughter, Sheri Barker is starting to celebrate the holiday season again.
Pagan Perspectives
Today’s column comes to us from Clio Ajana. Clio is an Archieria for the House of Our Lady of Celestial Fire in the Hellenic Alexandrian Witchcraft & Spiritual Tradition, and she also practices Romuva (Baltic Heathenry). She currently lives in Central Minnesota. Her interests include divination, eldercare, prison ministry, and death midwifery.
The Wild Hunt’s weekend section is always open for submissions. Please send queries to eric@wildhunt.org. One of my favorite times lies in the span between the last two sabbats of the calendar year. Nights lengthen, temperatures cool and bring a hint of snow, and the ground hardens beneath the fallen leaves.
