Winter Solstice is the longest night of the year and the shortest day. It has been a celebration since time immemorial where people dive into the depths of the darkness in order to ensure the rebirth of the light. For this episode of Mythology Cafe, we will be exploring various traditions of solstice from around the world and then doing our own solstice ritual. I welcome two special guests, Lisette Murphy and Michael Taft, to create the sacred soace of honoring the dark and bringing forth the light. Finally we transition then to some of my favorite ways of consecrating our ritual and enchant the world around us with intentional actions and praxis.
What are your solstice or winter celebrations? I'd love to read about themin the comments below.
This was recorded on the Vision Train, a global community of artists and creators, started by Amanda Sage at the beginning of the lockdowns in 2020. A nonstop 24hour zoom room, we are a collective of makers that support each other, learn from each other and teach each other around the world. Sounds fun? Check it out and hop on board:
