I’m not familiar with Yule. What is it?
Yule is the celebration of the winter solstice. During Yule, we stop to reflect on a few different things. With this being the dark time of the year we tend to spend more time indoors, more time doing things on our own and being focused on solitary pursuits. We take time to honor the God who is reborn at this Sabbat. The God comes back, reborn as the Child of Light, bringing with him the returning light of the sun (i.e. son). We give thanks to the Goddess for carrying the God through his journey of rebirth in the Underworld and giving birth to him. From this night forth, the sun gets stronger and the days get longer. At first only by milliseconds that we don’t even notice, but we are moving back toward the sun from this point on. Celebrating Yule is a time for celebrating hope, life, and renewal.
