Mystics, Mages, and Magical Places #036 Rev. Art, Rev. James, Miss Elvyra & Deb Voith: Yule & the Winter Solstice

[Reverend Art]

Mystics, Mages, and Magical Places 12/18/2023:

The 36th episode of Mystics, Mages, and Magical Places with Reverend Art, Reverend James and returning guests Deborah Voith and Miss Elvyra, bringing you "Yule and the Winter Solstice!"

Mystics, Mages, and Magical Places will be on the air at 4pm PT, 7pm ET with Reverend Art, Reverend James and returning guests Deborah Voith and Miss Elvyra! We begin this show with an update from our guests followed by a discussion on pagan holiday of Yule, it’s history and meaning.

As the world cloaks itself in a blanket of winter stillness, Yule emerges as a luminous celebration, captivating hearts and spirits in the enchanting dance of the Winter Solstice. This celestial ballet marks the longest night and the triumphant return of the sun, a cosmic promise whispered through ancient traditions and modern festivities alike. Yule, with its roots deeply entwined in the tapestry of pagan rituals, beckons us to gather around crackling fires and exchange stories that bridge the gap between the old and the new. The air shimmers with the magic of evergreen boughs and the sweet scent of spiced mulled wine, weaving a tapestry of warmth and unity. In the hushed whispers of icy winds, there lies a timeless invitation to embrace the darkness, knowing that the sun's embrace will soon illuminate the path ahead. Yule is a radiant tapestry of hope, a celestial celebration inviting us to revel in the embrace of community and the promise of renewal as we stand at the threshold of a new solar cycle.

Tune in online to listen:

"Yule and the Winter Solstice!" with Reverend Art, Reverend James, Deborah Voith and Miss Elvyra.

2023-12-18 19:22 trollt The Cauldron Speaks!
2023-12-18 19:22 reverendjames we seem to be in sync at the moment
2023-12-18 19:22 dr-sweets Mercury is neuter (Hmm). I would imagine like hermaphrodite but some non-dominate part removed. Maybe that’s why it causes problems something natural was taken away to fit the norm and it send its anger out in retrogrades. [LOL...ok...end of fantasy]
2023-12-18 19:23 phyllismargretgabor LOL
2023-12-18 19:24 trollt It's REAL! This is a going concern!
2023-12-18 19:24 trollt Congratulations on a successful use of the technology.
2023-12-18 19:24 reverendjames @dr-sweets When I finally saw your question about MR I thought you were talking about MR as in Mr. So-and-So HAHA was so confused.

2023-12-18 19:27 phyllismargretgabor wow so many of us!
2023-12-18 19:27 wickwayisup birds of a feather flock together B-|
2023-12-18 19:27 reverendjames for those curious - https://astrostyle.com/cosmic-calculato ... etrograde/

2023-12-18 19:29 rev_art Welcome @tiegav!
2023-12-18 19:30 rev_art I was Mercury direct...can I still be in the club?
2023-12-18 19:30 phyllismargretgabor i have several planets in retrograde in my chart. my chart is a hot mess lol
2023-12-18 19:30 dr-sweets Mercury was Direct for me...Hmm...now I gotta figure out what that means...LOL
2023-12-18 19:31 reverendjames @dr-sweets just below that calculator there is that person’s interpretation.
2023-12-18 19:31 phyllismargretgabor there are still robins here. I heard one this weekend. I wouldn’t mind if they won. that means warmth right haha
2023-12-18 19:31 dr-sweets yes...I am bouncing back.... Thanks.
2023-12-18 19:32 wickwayisup retrograde is more inward thought versus direct is outward thought ...maybe
2023-12-18 19:32 wickwayisup lots of retrograde planets as well
2023-12-18 19:35 phyllismargretgabor i was listening to LMHR Healing the Holiday blues and Miss Cat discussed how some traditions are to help us feel better. i.e. lights on trees, it's so dark at this time of year, burn the yule log, for warmth and light
2023-12-18 19:38 reverendjames In the south we call the inner heart of pine "fat lighter" because it’s so good for starting a fire.
2023-12-18 19:39 reverendjames So true about the ornaments. I mean there’s a reason Hallmark puts years on their ornaments!
2023-12-18 19:40 phyllismargretgabor i have an ornament problem
