Thirteen Sacred Nights for the Southern Hemisphere

 
This book aims to be a bright lantern to guide you through the Thirteen Sacred Nights that fall between Christmas Eve and the 6th January also known as Epiphany. This period of time has been considered for centuries a holy time offering an opportunity to gain new understanding, self- knowledge and wisdom.  By working with the Thirteen Sacred Nights, we are gifted an opportunity to bring more meaning into our Solstice, Christmas and New Year experience, and to awaken the mystery of these days and nights that are betwixt and between ~ a dreaming time. This book brings you practices, questions and ritual to deepen this dreaming time and is a guide for manifesting those dreams in the corresponding Festivals and seasons of the year that will follow.
 
By working into the Celtic Festivals on these Sacred Nights we set intentions and energies that will manifest for us in the corresponding time of next year. These nights act as a preparation for the Festival or season ahead and will be a handbook of guidance to look back on and rework  during the year. Journal prompts and reflections will be invaluable resources for your journey forward.
 
There are four seasons to work with during these Thirteen Sacred Nights and each season holds two Seasonal Festivals based on the Celtic year.  For every Festival there is a Wayfaring Goddess to anchor you, guide you and protect you. Each Goddess will pose questions for your journalling, will set you a challenge and gift you a ritual. Each will also ask that you send out into the world particular prayers on these nights. They will also guide you into deep, healing sleep. Once you have journeyed with all of the Goddesses you will have created a Goddess Circle for yourself which will help you keep to your path through the changing  seasons, through celebrations, struggles, and triumphs on the road.
 
Blessings dear Sisters on your Dreaming and your Visioning!
