I started offering my Friday night candles more publicly last January and it’s become one of my favorite anchoring points each week ❤️

How are you doing as the year comes to an end? What are you carrying tight to your chest? What are you gratefully leaving behind? What are you dragging with you like a 13 year old forced to walk around in the cold looking at holiday decorations with the family?

Can I light a candle for you tonight?

Yeahhhh no the second thing is definitely cannon now

I was kinda hoping the Sunwait thing would help drag me through the worst of the December/holiday stuff but I kinda feel like it ending as the darkest/hardest times came was rough.

This has been a lovely practice to follow along with. I was a little tapped out on Lighting Candles Of Significance for the moment but I’m enjoying your posts

Dream me was so annoyed at you 🤣

Mine involved @glassewitch.bsky.social making me watch old Popeye cartoons when I just wanted to sleep.

Your thing is better.

How are you? What is feeling hard or big or overwhelming right now? What is feeling exciting or joyous? What is feeling tangled?

We’ve come to the longest, darkest nights of the year. Tonight is the new moon, Sunday is the solstice, and we have weeks to go before things start feeling brighter again.

Mmm.

How are you, friends? What joys or sorrows or hard things would be better shared than held in? Where are things feeling disconnected or off?

How are you doing? What bits of beauty are you seeing? Where are things feeling hard to hold? What do you need to let go of, and what do you need to pick back up?

It is 2° out as I write this. The sky is a clear, light blue that seems better suited to a color in a jumbo box of crayons and the frost has made flowering, angular patterns that look too perfect to be real on every flat surface.
