I'm so late for #SixOnSaturday (last week's 😆 ) that it actually lands just about on the right day again...lol
Last week, around the #Solstice was much colder than now, but beautiful with that #MidWinter #light and a touch of fresh #snow So, I'll wish a #HappyNewYear to all (really just another slightly mis-placed solstice celebration anyway!) #SniegaMate #SnowMother #Saule #Sun #pagan #animist #Alberta @nature #GetOutside #SolaceInNature

Pics are from Wednesday, when we'd had light #rain and a bit of #snow overnight- leading to #ice then #frost probably both #rime and #HoarFrost
A Black-capped Chickadee /Poecile atricapillus came to watch me

Traditionally, winter begins mid-point btwn Autumn Equinox/Winter Solstice so we're right on schedule! #AutumnSpirits like #LapuMate (#Latvian Leaf Mother) have given way to #WinterSpirits like #SniegaMate (Snow Mother) and the #TimeOfSpirits- as with #Samhain and #AllHallows, the time when the barrier between living and dead thins, draws to a close. #animist #pagan #heathen
