There’s an old Ukrainian folk tradition –
the ritual of leading the goat during the Christmas and New Year holidays.
My new Sunday Letter tells about it, along with a few of my reflections on the things I share.

Ukraine is home to many talented people.
This young artisan from the Carpathians is one of them – just look at her work (especially her vyshyvanka 🤩)

Greetings from Kyiv,
where there’s no power at home,
but snow outside.
It’s the first snow of the winter season.

This man with a sign ‘Hugs warm you up’ offered free hugs at the Christmas market today.
Kurazh Market is one of the best in Kyiv.
It happens about once a month and celebrates Ukrainian craftsmanship and spirit.

Today, I took my Patreon supporters to a Christmas market in Kyiv
(sorry for such a spontaneous idea).
Why only supporters?
It was very crowded – not safe for open live events.
I didn’t buy anything, but supported them ⬇️ on behalf of our warcoffee family.

What you see is a motanka – a traditional Ukrainian protective doll.
Made by winding fabric, not sewing.
It has no face – to avoid giving it an identity or inviting a soul.
Instead, a sun cross marks balance and protection.
Maybe your culture has something similar?

The Bethlehem Light of Peace
An international scouting tradition that began in Austria in 1986 and takes place before Christmas.
A symbolic flame shared worldwide as a sign of peace.
This year, Plast (the Ukrainian scouting organisation) also brought the light to a bookstore in Kyiv 🇺🇦

Yesterday, I showed you some items in the Petrykivka style.
The key figure behind this art is 🇺🇦 Tetiana Pata (1884–1976). She taught an entire generation of artists, making sure Petrykivka would survive and flourish.

Let me explain what you see.
It is a traditional Ukrainian pavuk (spider) – a Christmas-season decoration made of straw and hung from the ceiling.
Shaped like a light floating sculpture,
the pavuk was believed to keep the home in balance, absorb anything negative, and bring harmony to the family
