Yule is such a magical time of year; I couldn’t resist the opportunity to come online and share some beautiful festive gems with you, to comfort you over the next few busy days! Here are my three top picks! 

One of my favourite Sabbats of the Wheel of the Year, I simply adore this season! There is magic in the air, and everything seems to glitter with the promise of light and good fortune to come. The Winter Solstice is a moment of celebration, the triumph of light, as we conquer the final mountain of winter - the longest night - and emerge on the other side – one sleep closer to spring. 

As a crystal deeply attuned to the mind, inner thoughts and altered states of awareness, Amethyst carries inner wisdom. Her stories weave themselves through the subconscious, bound together with lessons—much like those you find in dreams.  

This post will explore mythology, folklore, moon magic, and mystical connections.

Illuminating our skies on November 5^th, the Full Beavers Super Moon offers a final call to prepare and gather before the arrival of winter.

As we make our way through the dark, Samhain reaches out and offers us a candle of light. It is a beautiful Sabbat, celebrating the impermanence of life, reminding us to honour our ancestors and loved ones who have crossed over. Samhain is a potent time for divination, as the veil between realms thins and communication with those who have passed begins to flow more freely.

She has a primary mission to help us reach our goals with confidence and a deep sense of inner strength. Like the last warm glow of the summer sun, Citrine will radiate positivity and optimism into your day.
