HAPPY SUMMER SOLSTICE! I'm a bit late this year, but I hope all of you have enjoyed an amazing solstice day 2024! May you all be blessed under the golden rays of the Invincible Sun! Hoping we all get a fantastic and bountiful summer...! :) Blessed be!

Wishing you all a truly magical Last of April - and a wonderful beginning of the bright warm season! May many petty flowers grow along your path and may your life be blessed with abundance and loveliness! And may the merry sparkles of the bonfire rise to the night sky and mingle with the stars of Springtime! Blessed be.

THE BIRTHDAY OF THE SUN! Jolly Midwinter, everyone...! Wish you all a happy holiday-season. But I just want to say that if you feel sad right now, perhaps having a hard time feeling happy and joyful and all that... It is okay and it is normal. If you think that everything in the world has gone from bad to worse - well, you're not alone. It is okay if the holiday mood wont really arrive when the world is burning. It just shows that you have a soul. I'm thinking - or rather hoping - that is this is the Midwinter-tide of Humanity, there must come a glorious spring when all this is over. When the world becomes green and the air is fresh again. When all that was dead and rotten has moulded away and is gone. May it come. So let's celebrate anyway, let's do as good as we can about it. We know that everything isn't fine and we wont pretend it is, but we will still honour Life itself and the Birthday of the Sun! May the gods not only give us strength and courage, but also comfort and

Greetings on the Night of the Dead! The sun in moving towards the horizon and the Night of the Dead is soon upon us. It is a traditional time for merriment and warmth, to gather friends and family around and to meet new friends across borders both physical and liminal. It is the time of the year when the Gates are wide open and the goblins and witches are running freely and wildly. And of course it is also the time of those beloved who ascended into the night before us. A time to remember and a time when the dead are walking on the streets among the mortals... But I will also take the opportunity to reach out to all of you whom I have had contact with over the years! All of you who I had discussed art and photography with. All of you I had talked about the joys and pains of life with. All of you I had light-hearted conversations with and giggled with. Even all of you I have had disagreements with. I wish you all a joyful Halloween, Oíche Shamhna, Allhelgonaafton, Night

Happy Autumn Equinox! The year is now ripe and it is time for harvest. Let us now gather vegetables, mushrooms, fruits and nuts - and give our offerings as thanks for these annual blessings... And of course: eat and drink and be merry together! :D Blessed be. :heart:

Happy Summer Solstice 2023! Hello, everybody out there! Today the Sun is at His highest, when the light of summer is brightest and the beauty of Nature greenest. May the Light of the Summer Sun heal the world. May the Light of His Love reveal all lies and illusions. May we be cleansed in His Holy Fire. May we be blessed by His Grace. And may we be filled by His Joy! And let us help the Sun by spreading His Light and Love - and together take part in the Midsummer celebrations! Blessed be! :-) :heart: :D

Glad Valborgsmässoafton! And happy Walpurgisnacht, Oíche Bealtaine, Las of April or whatever you may call it..! This is one of the truly magical times of the year - the awakening of Nature, the moment when the arrival of Springtime is inevitable... This is also the time to go and watch the bonfire and dance around the flames while the sun is setting, a time to eat and drink and be merry in good company and to listen to the old songs of spring - and to start the preparations for the summer season! I wish you all a fine evening and a nice time by the fire! May the Gods of Springtime be with you! Blessed be. :heart:

Happy Spring Equinox, everybody! In this place of the world, spring is still several weeks ahead in the future. We just get a winter who can't decide if its going to be a cold winter with lots of snow, or a warm snow-less winter with rain and mist. But spring will come eventually. The gods will bless the lands with their healing hands. Flowers will appear on every hill. Bees will come out of their combs. Leaves will sprout from seemingly dead branches. Migrant birds will return from the south to sing their songs to us once again. And old wounds will finally heal. So to all of you out there - either if spring has arrived to your abodes or is you're still living in this limbo - let us celebrate this day of hope together! Blessed be. :hug: :heart:

Happy Solstice Day 2022! I wish you all a bright Midwinter, Yule, Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanza or whatever you call it! This is a time to gather together and cherish friendship, love and family bonds. So share a cup of mead with me and let's celebrate the Birthday of the Sun! Blessed be!

Seasonal Greetings on the Night of the Dead! Greetings good Paganfolk and everybody else! The wheel has turned again and it is now that time of the year when we remember those who have gone before us, or dear dead ones and our ancestors. The list of those to remember is longer for every year, which is the way it works... But those who pass are not gone from the world, they just go inside the world. They are ever present. And those who fall will rise again. This night the veil is thinner than any other night of the year and we can feel the presence of the ancestral realm very close. We can commune with the dead and in the darkness we can call out, we can howl with the ghosts and dance with the goblins. And let out the darkness on the streets for one night of feasting... The idea that Light and Darkness are in opposition to each other is a misconception. In the old days the wise knew very well that Light and Darkness are in love with each other - and from their
