During the winter solstice, we experience the longest night of the year, which marks the end of a cycle and the beginning of a new period of increased light and growth. At the Feast of Yule, an ancient pagan festival, people lit fires to symbolize the heat and light of the returning sun. The lighting of these fires was believed to bring good fortune and ward off evil spirits. In addition to the fires, a Yule log was burned on the hearth to honor the god Thor, who was associated with thunder, lightning, and oak trees. The ashes of the burned log were collected and were strewn on the fields to promote fertility every night until Twelfth Night.
This festival was a time of great significance for our ancestors, as it marked the turning point of the year and the promise of new beginnings. The longest night of the year gives us an opportunity to investigate the darkness as well as to look toward the light, and to appreciate the natural cycles of light and dark that govern our lives.
