a fairy magical Yuletide......

O come, O come, Emmanuel, to free your captive Israel that mourns in lonely exile here until the son of god appear. Rejoice! Rejoice! O Israel to you shall come Emmanuel. O veni, veni Emmanuel, Captivum solve Israel, Qui gemit in exilio, Privates Dei Filio.

Dawn breaks, there is blue in the sky Your face before me Though I don't know why Thoughts disappearing like tears from the moon Waiting here, as I sit by the stone They came before me Those men from the sun Signs from the heavens say I am the one Enya

When night falls... and the moon shines bright... put a light in the window then angels take flight...

nature spirit awakens the helleborus..

mystic returning light...

The dawning morning blankets the cold land in a warm glow under an icy-blue sky...

a radiant grinning smile in the clear, cold winter night...

#WinterSolstice Starting today, the days will gradually be adding more #light. Today marks the return of light after the year's longest night. Ancient traditions marking it as the sun's rebirth or victory over darkness.

🪷 At the December #Solstice (15:03 GMT Sunday December 21) #Antinous embraces and embodies #Phanes, #Mithras, #SolInvictus. May the love and light of #Antinoos fill you all at #Solstice2025: antinousstars.blogspot.com/2025/12/anti... #WinterSolstice #SummerSolstice #paganism #gaypagans #lgbtpagans.🪷

Winter ❄️ begins Capricorn ♑️ begins The days grow longer again finally ☀️

It's that time of year again to pull out my four all-time favorite Christmas movies. 1. Gremlins 1984. since I was a kid. 2. Scrooge, a christmas carol 1970 best film version ever! 3. The Hogfather 2006. just fantastic! 4. The Holiday 2006. just a hopeless romantic. What are yours?

Sunday silhouette... Do you hear what I hear? A song, a song high above the trees With a voice as big as the sea

catch the december mists...

Hidden in plain sight, they are still among us... #satyrSaturday

Yuletide atmosphere...

The winter solstice approaches... the land is shrouded in mist... Roads and paths are deserted... the world around us grows smaller, quieter. more mystical. But makes the otherworld all the more perceptible, palpable. tangible. and lets the winter spirits roam free. blowing the midwinter horn...

Yuletide spirit...

December morning skies so gray and dreary...

Gremlins have been a part of midwinter since I was a child... so they definitely shouldn't be missing from the Yuletide decoration!

come and kiss under the mistletoe...
