On the 4th Day of Yule - we honor the Nature Spirits and we recognize the delicate balance between the human and animal worlds.

“Once upon a time, a great forest blanketed the northern lands. It stretched from Scandinavia to the British Isles, and from Siberia over the land bridge into North America. Moving through that forest were those who knew the silver tracks of the old ways: the deer and their people.”

Thank you @RO8888888888!!!

I want to share this podcast bc it really speaks to something I’ve been feeling the last couple of years around Christmas.

I’m tired of the Fear. I’m tired of seeing posts calling Christmas “satanic” and equating the tradition of Santa to grooming children to be accepting of pedophiles.

I went through that period of time where I questioned all of it. I saw the bullshit and I felt the anguish of “losing my religion”. I was disillusioned. I was sad. And I completely rejected the entire “Christmas Season” in the way I had come to know it. And that really did need to happen.

But the reason it needed to happen wasn’t to close the door forever on Holiday festivities and traditions. It wasn’t to become cold or angry or bitter at the understanding that things have been perverted.

It was to clean the slate…To take away everything I thought I knew and allow me to connect with the parts of this Season that I truly do feel an affinity for. To find the things that actually bring me Joy. Not just the approximation of it based in what I was conditioned to Believe, but real Joy and connection to this Life.

I have forged a new relationship with “Christmas” and Yuletide and it’s MINE. I Resonate with certain parts of it on a deep level and I’m so very thankful for that.

I’m attaching a podcast that I think touches on this sentiment. And it just might re-ignite your love of the Season - and even some of the traditions you may have been led to believe are “bad”.

Things in your Life have the meaning that YOU GIVE THEM. And that’s pretty fucking wonderful.

“In this episode, I'm sharing something deeply personal that has been brewing in my heart for years now. I finally have words to explain why I’ve never stopped believing in Santa (for reals!) and why all the “debunking” and “lying to children” bandwagons don’t sit well with me, and most importantly, why this is a hill a will happily die on.

I mean, just ask yourself, which prophet, oracle, or priestess ever said, "oh hang on a second, let me check the lore..." before delivering their divine messages?
So, I’m peeling back the layers to reveal a figure whose origins start way back in the mist of time—a spirit who carries echoes of ancient gods, European folklore, and whispers from the divine.
Together, we’ll explore:
• Santa’s deeper roots—from Saint Nicholas to Norse gods like Odin, Thor, and Freyr.
• The ancient untamed Wild Men of Europe and their surprising connection to the Santa story.
• The Holly King and the balance of light and dark during the Yule season.
• Why Santa is a muse, keeping the Old Ways alive in art, stories, and traditions.
But most importantly, we’ll talk about why believing in Santa Claus isn’t a lie we tell children—it’s an invitation to trust in magic, to believe in things unseen, and to nurture a connection to something greater than ourselves. What we feed will endure.”
