A Little Yuletide Crystal Magic
Yuletide Blessings & Season's Greetings!
We've made it through the darkest time, and longest night, of the year.
Slowly but surely the sun will begin to wax, and while they still feel far away, the warm days will come again.
We're moving into a potent phase of intention setting and manifestation magic from the 25th to the 6th (the original 12 days of Yuletide or Christmas), when our thoughts and hopes will look to a fresh start at the new year.
According to the ancient Celtic and Druidic calendars, the month of Birch begins today. The birch tree symbolizes new beginnings, rebirth, and resurrection. In the runic language of the old Norse, it symbolizes fertility, healing, prosperity, and the feminine mysteries.
A Little Yuletide Crystal Magic
To consciously welcome in the magic, healing, and blessings this time brings:
Place a candle in your window at twilight, the magical "between and betwixt time" revered by the Druids. (An LED candle is fine, safety first!)
Using your saliva (or a sacred oil) and your index finger, draw the runic Berkana symbol (meaning "birch", pictured above) on your window.
Hold a piece of quartz and whisper your desires for healing, renewal, fertility or prosperity into the quartz.
Leave the quartz beside your candle throughout the night, symbolizing the light of your dreams blazing through the darkness.
Keep the quartz with you, place it on your altar, or bury it in your garden after the Spring thaw.
May magic, healing, love and hope bless you and yours this holiday season!
Warmest wishes,
🌟Krista🌟
