Description
Mini Magic, Winter Solstice style.  On this very special holiday episode of Mini Magic, we discuss the celebration of Yule, also known as the Winter Solstice and the shortest day of the year. We cover the origin of the holiday, where the word solstice comes from and what it really means about the movement of the sun, history and mythology associated with Yule like Sol Invictus and the Wild Hunt, and then share how we celebrate the solstice in our house with rituals and crafts. Then we head back into listener questions and answer- Do witches use wands or their hands? Are witches really doing magic or something...else?  Can you put spells into potions?  Find us online at moondustpress.com. On Instagram @moondustpress. On Facebook at facebook.com/moondustpress.com.
