Yule (the Winter Solstice) is coming up fast, + a bunch of Online Rituals!

For many of us, this is a big Sabbat, which takes a more preparation (and if you are buying gifts, the 2024 Naturalistic Pagan Gift List here might help).  Whether it’s due to cultural inertia, or kid’s expectations, the importance of Stars and this Sabbat, or whatever, it’s a big deal in our family.  We are already well along with the the Solstice doors Advent practice and with decorating.  If you have been doing your Winter Solstice traditions for years, if you are just starting your family and are currently building the traditions which will bring the Universe to your kids, or anything in between, I hope that the traditions and practices on this post are found to be useful, inspiring, or just comforting.
