Wishing y'all a #festive #WinterSolstice! We're on the road today so I didn't bring my #YuleGoat, Yuli. Also, some of the folks were going to see would probably insist on an annoying conversation about their religion if I had. We'll put him to flame when we get back home, though.

As the days get colder & the nights get longer here in the northern hemisphere, folktales are full of the eerie, the creepy, the supernatural & the slightly sinister Yuletide characters. I have an ongoing collection of linocut prints (and holiday cards!) full of festive characters like the Yule Cat who eats naughty children who are too lazy so they don’t get new clothes at Christmas;

There is an old tradition of men dressing as a goat at Yule in Finland. These nuuttipukki were evil spirits who would go from house to house demanding gifts and leftovers from the Yule feast. But over time the concept of 🧵

A fun - an extremely thorough - look at the #GävleGoat tradition
Though I disagree with their description of the destruction being malevolent (sometimes the gods must be appeased 🤷♀️ ) I'm glad the 2024 Goat survived

Happy solstice, the traditional time for the festival of Yule. In 2022, I made this mixed-media artwork inspired by Pagan tradition.
