Welcome to the month of June.
It’s the cold and chilly month of Yule, and it holds the longest night of the year.
Yule holds a traditional significance as a time of change and remembrance, symbolising the shift from one year to the next as the longest night converges with the shortest day. As the Sun fades on solstice eve, it heralds its return, commencing its reign until mid-summer. Sometime while in deep quiet reflection on these cold wintery nights, you might gain inner wisdom and perhaps see your life, your dreams, and desires in a new light.
Yule is a time for reflection and remembrance. Each year, consider writing a message or a note to honour a loved one who has passed, acknowledging their presence during the Yule holidays.
You could also compile a list of goals and aspirations for the upcoming year. Write this list on the eve of the solstice (21st June) by white candle light and keep it with you from one year to the next. Revisit and reflect on it time and time again - under the same white candle light, creating a personal ritual where you take time to, dare I say, manifest or meditate on your intentions.
