Winter especially the Holiday season is always said to be the magical season. This is for a number of reasons especially in the Northern Hemisphere, which is very much ruled by the Cycle of Seasons. Winter is that time when Death has come to the natural world, the Trees slumber, flowers die and the Harsh Cold winds come in and shiver our bones. But during this time there is a promise, a Hope in the Horizon. This is the Bethlehem star , the birth of Christ the Divine child which is a promise of Spring.
O North wind!
Brittle is your touch
Little is you Mercy!
Show me your wyrd
and do not shed a tear
Promise me what is written
in the stars
Divine child
Heaven above
Man below.
