In northern Europe, it begins with the feast of the dead at Winterfinding or Samhain, and the ancestors remain a part of the process, remembered as we repeat traditions from our childhood or open up the family collection of ornaments for the tree. <a href="http://www.diana-paxson.com/2010/12/23/yule-tide-meditations-2-the-season/">[more...]</a> ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[12/31/09 Downstairs, the house is full of people, talking, eating, drinking, dancing, small children scurrying with apparently endless energy. Soon it will be midnight and no longer 2009. I’ve made a brief escape to see what’s going on in Asgard (and to be truthful, to sit down for awhile).

		<description><![CDATA[Too busy cleaning for New Year&#8217;s to post until now. 12/30/09 A blue moon, veiled by thin cloud and haloed in rainbows, an evening with only the least of breezes, calm and and still. Moonlight shines in the world within as well. No need for a lantern tonight.

		<description><![CDATA[12/29/09 Outside, irregular spatters of rain and the sound of wind chimes as the breeze shifts. Inside, the hum of the computer. It’s chilly in my room-—maybe that will help me stay awake. I breathe slowly and deeply, counting, and feel my focus shift. On my mountain it’s cold and wet too.

		<description><![CDATA[12/28/09 Breathe in and out… the pattern is established. Let the memories of the day emerge and fade away. I see in memory the pale orange of the sunset between the dark silhouette of the mountain and the bar of grey cloud. Then that fades, darkness falls, and I am on the mountain once more. <a href="http://www.diana-paxson.com/2009/12/29/the-twelve-days-of-yule-in-asgard-day-8/">[more...]</a> ]]></description>

We make our way to the Bridge. The plain is dark, but the colors of the Bridge glow.
