Dear One the Yule is almost upon us, it is a time of quiet contemplation and thinking of the following year and what we would like to achieve. I Morgana have no religion and give my time to thinking of good things for those I love and care for

I believe a false hope is placed in the minds and hearts of most people because of conventional religion and there is much pressure to spend time with family they dislike, dysfunctionally drawing out the anger pain and hurt they have wreaked upon each other since they can remember

Rhiannon likes to do certain things like leaving food out for the birds and animals, make a yule log, bake bread, bake shortbread, make hot buttered rum, and keep vigil the entire night, all these things are of the old path and she and I do these things together taking things we have made as gifts to neighbours but not stopping there. The act of taking these gifts to neighbours is to bring love, food and beverage to their home on the first day of the new year which in our path is the 25th of December, to ensure a blessing of abundance on their front door on that day

Chosing to do positive and generous deeds creates a lighter energy, lower pressure energy around everyone and there is no desire for anyone to return the gesture, that is not the reason it is done

So the secret I feel dear one is to find something you would like to offer others which does not cause lack in your own home and life, something simple and allow that to simply stand as your contribution; maybe visit a zoo and buy some food to feed the animals, visit a sanctuary and spend time looking at the animals and seeing how simply they live their life. What ever you do I hope that it fills you with a contentment that involves no pressure

Bright Blessings to you
