Tonight is Winter Solstice, which makes today the last day of the solar year, and tomorrow a brand new year.  I have spent the time between Samhain and Yule reflecting on the last year, and deciding what I should release going into the new year.

I had several health issues this year, and my first priority in the new year will include healing and management of those issues.  This year will also include the completion of my second-degree studies in the Correllian Nativist tradition, my first-degree studies in Temple of Witchcraft, and my year-and-a-day studies with Black Rose.  I will finish my aromatherapy certification and my Reiki Master attunement.  In addition, I have several large projects at work, which will give me a chance to shine and make a positive difference.

I plan to spend today tidying the house, meditating, working on my Book of Shadows, and planning for the new year. I am still trying to decide how to share my healing gifts with others, but I am confident that all will be revealed to me at the right time. And tonight, I will be celebrating Yule under the stars in my back yard and casting a prosperity spell for the upcoming year.

So to everyone celebrating today, I wish you a happy Winter Solstice and Yule, and a wonderful upcoming new year!
