Today is the final candle lighting if you’ve not yet done it. Advent is over, the promise is kept, the Light has come. Peace and joy to all.

It’s been a while since I shared a Wordless Wednesday. But these friends enjoying some quality time together were just too sweet not to share!

Rejoice in Life’s creative ecstasy! On this happy sabbat we dance the mysteries of fertility, beauty, and Nature’s flowering. Blessed Beltane!

Each year at Imbolc, John and I decorate and ask blessings for our well, which gives us life here at Laurel Hill Cottage. Thank you to Brighid.

Sometimes we need a quiet moment. Here’s one, after our first snowfall, from our road that leads to Laurel Hill Cottage. We’ve had more snow since.

Wordless Wednesday: Our altar honoring our Ancestors and beloved dead for Samhaintide.

Blessings as September arrives. She begins with Summer still pulsing brightly, but will end with the deeper colors and poignant gifts of Autumn.

A trio of hummingbirds swarm our front porch feeder at Laurel Hill Cottage this hot Summer’s day. Stop by, put your feet up, and sit a spell.
