I think the #CrossQuarterDay was a few days ago- mid-point between Winter Solstice and Spring Equinox. The Latvian Metenis /Meteņi often called the 'Waiting for Spring' is today Feb 06. Masking, feasting, bonfires are usual things, among others- blog post here: https://cohanmagazine.blogspot.com/2021/02/waiting-for-spring-metenis-new-and-old.html
This year I'm just going to spend some time outside- maybe do a little altar? cookies later, and it might be an excuse for treats on the weekend..lol
A Blessed Season to all!

HAPPY GOA MONTH! ( with some primstaffs of Candle Mass, Febr 2nd) The time is associated with femininity and the first sparks of fertility for the coming spring, alligned with the Irish Brighid complex

#ArtAdventCalendar Day 20 but posted today on the 21- the #WinterSolstice where we celebrate the imminent (albeit slow) return of the #Sun in the northern hemisphere, but we also ought to remember the importance of darkness which is at its strongest now: rest, soil, womb, rebirth. 2 images to emphasize the #duality #pagan #animist #Ragana #Saule #winter #garden #nature #SeasonalRhythms

#ArtAdventCalendar Day 18 From the other morning when the snow was at times horizontal. Thankfully that didn't last long, but now we head into some even colder weather for the weekend. In this view the grouse were writing messages to Bird Goddess in the snow...

I usually like to use current photos for #ArtAdventCalendar (Day 09) but yesterday I was only out long enough to cut a little wood + too lazy to take photos of decorations..lol So! as we approach Winter Solstice, views from the opposite side of the year as we approached Summer Solstice. I chose shots with a lot of shadow as a reminder that there always needs to be a balance between Light + Dark #animist #pagan #summer #florespondence #Bloomscrolling #butterfly #inverts #NativePlants #pollinators

#ArtAdventCalendar Day 02 (still late..lol)
Snow Mother hasn't been around that much this year, but she's starting to catch up this week. #winter #pagan #Latvian #animist #snow #garden

#ArtAdventCalendar Day 01 (late!) A dark image to remind us as we await the sun's return in the north, that we also need to honour and celebrate the Darkness. Blood, soil, womb, rest, regeneration, rebirth- these are all tied to darkness. #TimeOfIce #pagan #animist #winter #Alberta #LichenSubscribe #BorealForest #CountryLiving
