CW: Silly personal anecdote, Winter Solstice, paganism, ex-Christian, witchy things, veganism, candy
My #WinterSolstice treat for myself this year is some #vegan #TurkishDelight.
Like many kids raised in conservative Christian communities who read #TheChroniclesOfNarnia by #CSLewis, I was fascinated by the idea of a candy so good that Edmund would sell out his siblings for it. And since I have a penchant for gummies, when I finally tried it, I thought it was fantastic and that Edmund maybe had a point.
The deep irony there is that now, as a #Slavic #pagan, my patron goddess is #Morena, the goddess of winter and death and basically the White Witch. So maybe I was drawn toward #witchcraft earlier than I thought? 😆
Anyway, this is just a little reminder to all the other folks in the northern hemisphere to do something sweet for yourself this Winter Solstice!
Happy Solstice!
