YULE

Cycle of the Sun

Yule or winter solstice happens near December 21,
which is the longest darkest night of the year.

The dark of Winter is safe like my bedcovers at night.

Dark whispers of a Mother's love caress me.
In the darkness of the Mother's womb,
the void I am safe, sustained, at peace.

Into my own dark self, looking, learning, purifying.

I can cleanse myself of all that blocks me from being born
new with the rising new solstice sun when the sun king is born,
with promises for the Spring ahead.
