The purpose of this blog is to educate its readers and redirect how they think about life. The reader is free to believe what they chose to, after all, we do and will always have free will. What that free will does with this information is totally up to the individual.

I do challenge the reader, however, to truly think about all that you will see here and compare it with your own experiences, your own human development, and your own beliefs. Maybe you will question things. Maybe you will see things from a whole new perspective.

A Brief History of Yule

Yule, also known as Yuletide, is one of the oldest Winter Solstice festivals celebrated by Germanic peoples.

It's an excellent time to contact the Spirit world with a seance because it's the time when the veil between this world and the next is at its thinnest. The timing of contemporary Samhain celebrations varies according to spiritual tradition and geography. Many celebrate Samhain over the course of several days and nights, and these extended observances usually include a series of solo rites as well as ceremonies, feasts, and gatherings with family, friends, and Spiritual community. In the northern hemisphere, many Pagans celebrate Samhain from sundown on October 31 through November 1. Others hold Samhain celebrations on the nearest weekend or on the Full or New Moon closest to this time. Some Pagans observe Samhain a bit later, or near November 6, to coincide more closely with the astronomical m...
