Sage Wind Temple Yule Ritual & Potluck

Yule marks the Winter Solstice, the longest night (shortest day) of the year when we celebrate the return of the light. In the Northern Hemisphere this is on Dec 21st when darkness has reached its peak. (June 21st in the Southern Hemisphere). Yule is a pagan holiday that celebrates the changing of the seasons with themes of rebirth and renewal.
This is the time to celebrate that each day, little by little, the light is returning because with the sun brings life and growth to the world. Even though these solar energies are coming back this is also one of the hardest and coldest times of the year. There are still dark, cold days we will have to endure before we know we can shake Winters grasp.
Yule is a time for giving, usually small, handmade gifts or donating time or food to those in need, honoring love and acts of goodwill. Back in the day people needed each other in their communities to help get through this time together in order to survive. Gathering with friends, wassailing, getting out in nature, sharing joy and looking for the magic of the season is what Yule is all about.
All are welcome to attend our ritual and potluck.
Hope to see you there!
