As the year reaches its twilight, autumn’s ochre swan-song dwindles and the callous reality of the coldest nights and the darkest days sets in. Winter has us firmly in its bitter grasp. It is a time of hibernation, when we retreat indoors and hold life and light close, a flickering flame against the encroaching dark. As the gloom takes hold, we turn to traditions new and old, banishing wicked spirits and holding evergreens in reverence. It is a time of fire and candlelight, of apotropaic holly and magical mistletoe, of warmth, hospitality, and cheer. Seasonal rituals are those of brightness: burning yule logs, fairylit trees, candles and christingles. It is a time to honour the sun, as humans have always done, from the alignments of stone circles to the late Roman festival of Sol Invictus. Join us in this ancient tradition by adorning your home or Christmas tree with your very own winter solstice sun spirit, handcrafted by Team Hwæt!’s Bunty May Marshall. Let us revel in the festivities, and look forward to the sun’s renewed rebirth as the new year appears on the horizon like an old friend ✨🌝✨
