Blessed Litha! Now we align with the ways of our ancestors, and join together to protect our descendants. On this day, we honor the height of the Light; we celebrate the ever-turning of the Wheel of Time.

Merry Meet! Today is one of the holiest, happiest, most beautiful celebrations in our sacred year! It is Beltane in the Northern Hemisphere (and Blessed Samhain below the equator). The veil between the worlds is most thin, and our ancient alliances with the Faery world, as well as Nature, are honored. May joy be yours.

The Wheel turns, the veils between the human world and the primal worlds part and fly open. Dance into the ancient enchantment. Blessed Walpurgisnacht! Merry May Eve!

Today, The Wheel has turned. For one brief moment, there is a perfect balance, and then, in the Southern Hemisphere, darkness begins to overtake the hours of light, while here, the daylight outpaces the night.

This beautiful season, what will you give birth to? What hope grows in your heart’s garden? How will you celebrate this miraculous gift of sparkling new life?

Rejoice this happy day, when we dedicate to new magical studies, renew our devotions, undergo initiation, and, under the light of the Owl Moon, welcome the transformation of the Crone to the Maiden. For Imbolc is Life’s Promise: no matter what the ice and cold may deliver, Nature is bigger, stronger, and will triumph.

New Year’s is a time of very old magic, and all forms of manifesting, spells, and rituals are amplified at this turning. Beginning with the traditions of New Year’s Eve, I offer my annual suggestions for making sure you are attuned to the beautiful opportunities of this magical threshold.

Tonight, those who are counting down only to Christmas, as well as all who are counting down to Solstice now join together. United at last, from every continent around the globe, we are simultaneously all in the eternal Circle, in our own liminal moment, as evening sweeps across the Earth.

Tonight, we Witches, Pagans, and magical practitioners celebrate our most holy, reflective, and deeply sacred time. This marks the end of the Celtic year, and as the deep dark descends, I invite you to read about the lore, the magic, and the beauty of this hallowed sabbat. I also include a list of notable 2025 deaths.

Let us join together and give thanks on this blessed Equinox! In this rare moment, day and night come into a brief, but perfect balance.

If you live below the equator, Happy Ostara, and if you are in the Northern Hemisphere, Happy Harvest Home and Mabon! May all reap sweet abundance and goodness of every kind.
