After yesterday's pathetic holiday blues post, my husband and I got our butt's in gear and got out some of the decorations for the Winter Solstice. We bought these giant snowflake lights last year and I still totally love them.
We put miniature snowflake lights around my crafts room window which gives it a magickal facelift. I may keep them up all year, I love them that much.
It took some creative problem solving to get these up in our window but wow, do they ever encompass the magickal blue of the winter solstice.
Tonight will be the longest night of the year and then, finally, the sun will begin its gradual return. The moon is full, the lunar eclipse happened in the early morning... although short, today is a powerful day. Yes, winter is finally hear which makes me want to weep but our giant storm brought no snow with it, so far. So I am doing OK. I am frozen and in lots of pain but we are putting up the tree tonight in honour of Yule which is spirit lifting.
However you celebrate the return of the sun, I hope you are enjoying many homemade cookies, hot chocolate and that the hearth fires are burning bright.

It snowed here too! I missed the eclipse BUT we were there in Spirit. And that is Magickal! Getting my house put together for Yule--going to TRY to bake tonight. (usually disastrous...but I'm feeling LUCKy!)
Blessed Yule, Suzie
Much Joy, Merry Making!~*

Solstice blessings to you and Reg, Suzie! Your snowflakes and faery lights (as they call them in England) are FABULOUS!
The lights are so pretty Suzie, hope they bring some comfort and brightness through the storm. Stay warm and cozy.
It's lovely, Suzie.
Blessed Solstice -- the light is returning!
Many, many Yuletide blessings to you and yours from over the pond. x

I'm glad you were able to shake off some of those holiday blues and put up those snowflake lights. Love them.
Wishing you a good Winter Solstice, my friend.
