on the Day of Winter Solstice, December 21, 2020

Happy Winter Solstice, to those in the North.

Between two points

is a straight line,

except these last few years

where rulers no longer

work,

an inch according

to some is now a mile long,

and laws that governed

cohesion

were distorted to prove

a theorem from the

rambling, ranting transmissions

of illogical

Dark Ages thinkers

who have government support

in a time of satellites

broadcasting their ideas in milliseconds

to those who crave

a kind of order

by giving everyone else

chaos and

expecting it not to spread

to them and their hallucinations

about what a country,

and its people,

you and I, are.

I view, through cloudy hope,

the Great Conjunction

and like those who divine

from various sources,

I only wish for

an end to the Year of Breaking,

of Transition,

to a Year of Transformation,

to emerge from a chrysalis

of common sense

and be ready,

Be Ready.

How did I go from Point A

to Point B

being so backwards

and sideways

in my orbit?

My course is true

on an intuitive map

with no redrawing or

interference from those

who I have weighed and measured

and have since clung to denial

of the facts of those measurements.

The stars and planets

are slow and yet extreme,

like this terrible year.

Cold, stormy,

full of gaseous hot air,

explosive,

destructive,

collapsing,

forming,

clustering,

set on their courses

they do what they must

and cannot be persuaded

to go in other directions

or spin at another degree

to please any of us.

No matter what happens,

I finally divine,

some things are irreversible,

and must be accepted.

Chaos comes among reasonable

folk,

stars fall with no warning whatsoever.

I am ready.

I'm late for the Winter Solstice. This card supposed to be finished on Monday... well...

A cat drinking cocoa with lemon balm seems to be a good summary of the year. We all need something soft and sweet for comfort. It was like on a roller coaster!

2020 has not been a great year for anyone so welcoming in sun this year feels even more important.

For any Witches who are isolating, live remote or simply don't have enough spoons left to face heading out. This year you can join thousands of other pagans in watching the solstice live at the famous Stone Henge in a live video feed.

To join us simply log into the English Heritage social media channel  on the 21st. See link for details.
