Yule & A Lifetime Gift

Reading Time: 1 minute

Hello All,

My ‘Christmas’ is called Yule and is more related to the changing off the seasons. Marking the end of winter and welcoming back the sun. To read more about Yule go here. Anyway Yule is on the 21st December (yesterday).

So David came down for a ritual with Simon, Chrys and some of their friends. David and I went shopping to make a Yule Compote (a mashed fruit desert). It was lovely and went down a treat.

Prior to going to ritual I gave David a lovely Yule gift I had bought him. A beatiful Book Of Shadows (B.O.S). A B.O.S is a journal to record his path as he explores paganism. It includes: learning, experiences, rituals, spells, recipies, etc.

David loved his gift (thankfully!). I also bought two of these books for my self
(Hey! I’ve been living as a pagan for over 7 years!).

Here’s a photo of mine:

(Notice the A.S initals at the bottom. I had Davids personalised like this too!)

I bought it from The Diary Shop I would highly recommend it. They are hand made with hand made paper and reasonably priced.

Anyway, the Yule ritual went well. Although I am nackard tonight.

So one last thing before I go, do you remember that song by George Micheal?

Yes, last Christmas. Well I’ve been hearing it all day, and if I have to suffer so do you.

I was killing some time before the panto (went to see Alladin with my mum & gran this weeknd), window shopping shoes and listening to the new Girls Aloud Album on my iPod. When all of a sudden out of no where someone appeared in my face and said Hi.

It was an ex-partner. I was glad to hear hear he was well. I am pleased it was not awkard, we were able to catch up and then go our own seperate ways.

Panto was good fun and made better by the fact David came round afterwards.

Write about random events soon,

Christmas Cards

Hello All,

If you are pagan, you will know there is a lack of affordable Yule cards. I’m not sure if it’s because of it being a niche market or to do with pagans views on saving the environment.

Anyway, the majority of my family and friends are Christian and as such send Christmas cards.

I have got underway with my address book. I’ve found wonderful friends that for various reasons (distance, time, etc.) I only seem to communicate with once a year. It’s such a shame that these wonderful people, many of whom where a big part of my life have moved on, as have I.

Does this happen to you? I imagine it’s just part of life. People moving on.

Blast from the past & Eagle Eye

I recently had a message on facebook from a old school mate, talk about a blast from the past! It was nice to hear off the person in question, if not a little odd.

This is the thing about facebook, it allows all mannors of people from your past to get in touch with you. Some you would like and some you may not. Now whilst I don’t mind this person getting in touch, I have had others add me as a friend that I’ve chose to ignore. Sometimes you past is your past for a reason.

In other news…David and I went watching Eagle Eye this weekend. It was an action film about two people who were being instructed to do things for an unknown purpose. It was all action. The story line was weak and easily worked out. A film that is worth watching once to say you’ve seen – but not worth buying on DVD.

Tomorrow I am going to see The Feeling, so excited.
