solstice and yule time

xmascard2011_blog.jpg

at 9:30 pm here in the Pacific Standard Time zone on this evening of December 2011,
if I understand it right, it is Solstice Time,
time to nod to Midwinter and the pagan traditions of Yule, Yulefest, Jul, Joulu….

time to rejoice that this longest night will soon be over and the days will lengthen,
a good time to wish all of you, my dear friends and readers,
a happy Solstice, 
Joyful Christmas, Hauskaa Joulua,
Frohe Weihnachten, Joyeux Noël, Happy Holidays, or whatever you celebrate.

Love and light, peace and joy,
and a big thank you to all of you for your friendship.
