Some pictures from the ritual yesterday! It was held indoors at Gaia House, although at a balmy 65⁰, we could pretty easily have had it outside.
Table decorations for the post-ritual potluck.
Holly leaves inscribed with some Japanese phrases denoting what I want to grow in the coming year. (Other people used runes, but Japanese felt more applicable to my practice.) They say, よろこび (joy) 愛 (love), and 平和 (peace). The one saying joy I wrote in yellow, hence the fact that it doesn't show up in the picture.
One of the members brought her pet Tegu, named Walter! I got to hold him - he's a real snuggle bug.
Getting ready for the gift exchange.
A Yule Carol booklet, with lots of the rewritten classics.
My gift from the gift exchange - three colored glass jars!
They look so pretty on my altar!
