#Midwinter #Morning, East End, #Toronto, Feb 7/25

Last night was BFMS' annual Midwinter Ball. A few of the regulars couldn't make it because their cars weren't dug out yet, but the church hall where the dance is held had adequate plowing in the parking lot, so somewhere around 85-90 of us were able to dance to great music. The band played a little on the fast side, and more repeats than usual, to make sure we all stayed warm. I had never danced a dance with a backward progression before!

A cold midwinter view, captured at Rainton Meadows, Houghton-le-Spring in NE England.
Joe's Pond is a lovely spot on a fine summer's day, but here, captured around the winter solstice, it is exuding some of the bleakness associated with this time of the year.
Rainton Meadows is managed by the Durham Wildlife Trust and it is also their HQ.

20 more days to get through before the end of January. Something needs to be done to make January more palatable. We need a special day. Perhaps a day off work and we all have to go and volunteer somewhere. Or a party in the nearest park.

There's such a tiny sliver of New Moon above the western horizon in the fading light! I'm glad I was here to see it, rather than out running errands. 🌚
(I mean, I still need to run at least 1 or 2. But I'm so glad to have seen this.)

Foggy midwinter in Sheffield. I planted an apple tree. To prepare for the light returning, I reduced the height of a hedge to the south of my land. Barrowed in lots of eucalyptus woodchip, thanks to whoever dropped that, mulch is always appreciated. Two more apple trees to plant. #sheffield #allotment #midwinter

Happy solstice and blessèd midwinter, Fediverse! 🌟❄🕯🌌

Die längste Nacht des Jahres kündigt sich heute mit grauer, nasskalter Dauerdämmerung schon am Mittag an. Ein paar Farbkleckse gibt es dennoch. Und ab morgen werden die Tage dann wieder länger - das ist schön und gut. Außerdem freue ich mich über mein vorgezogenes Weihnachtsgeschenk, ein gebrauchtes, neuwertiges AF Zoom-Nikkor 35-105mm f/3.5-4.5N. Diese 90er AF-Zooms werden weithin unterschätzt, denke sich.

Midwinter blessings -
"They looked towards the hilltop and saw a yellow flame rising against the sky. Too-ticky had lit the bonfire. It wrapped itself in flames at once, from ground to top, it gave a roar like a lion and threw its reflection straight down on the black ice" Moominland #Midwinter, Tove Jansson

He has gone down into darkness at the wrecked end of the year
And is lying, gaberlunzie, in the needled nest of frost…—Gerry Cambridge, “Processional at the Winter Solstice”
published in Notes for Lighting a Fire (HappenStance Press 2012) -
On the loom of winter, shadows
gather in a web; then the
shuttle of St. Lucy makes a
pause; a dark weave
fills the room…—George Mackay Brown, “Maeshowe: Midwinter”

…I dream
we are pregnant again, sharing the same
green among grey, the selfsame startled heart
that Maeshowe, like the navel of the north,
offers at first glance.—Taylor Strickland, “The Low Road”

#ArtAdventCalendar Day 21 #WinterSolstice #MidWinter here #MidSummer for those on the currently sunny side of the globe!
In the North we celebrate the beginning of the slow return of #Saule #Sun but don't forget to give #Darkness its due: life, #regeneration begins in the darkness of blood, soil, womb, heart, brain! Darkness is #rest #nest Take time to repose and #reflect and appreciate the long quiet nights.
#AncientWays #pagan #animist #GoddessCulture #Latvian #Ragana #Alberta #WinterBright -
2/2 The true beauty of #midwinter is not just knowing that it gets brighter from here, but learning to live with the darkness. Take care of yourselves today, and celebrate all that is to come. Rest assured that there are still old things left in this world, ancient wheels that turn with or without us, the things that will never change.
