Yule Celebration Giveaway!


Yule, also known as the Winter Solstice, starts either Monday night or Tuesday morning, depending on which part of the country you live in. (If you're in the Southern Hemisphere, you're observing the Summer Solstice instead, of course.) In celebration of all the holidays at this time of year, as well as my new Llewellyn book contract (you KNEW I was going to do a giveaway for that, right?) I'm going to do one last giveaway this year. It's a cool one!

Everyday Witchcraft tote bag and notebook, plus a broom ornament, plus swag!

Isn't this adorable?!

OMG! Look what's on the back of the tote bag!
The giveaway includes a reversible oversize tote bag with EVERYDAY WITCHCRAFT on one side and The Witch's Broom (still on sale in Kindle form for only $2.99, but I have no idea for how long!) on the other side. Also, the last of my Everyday Witchcraft notebooks, and a cool Yule broom ornament I special-ordered from some lovely Pagans in France on Etsy to give to my family and friends--this was the last of those, too. See how special y'all are? Plus, of course, some misc. swag and bookmarks and such.

By the way, check out how popular Everyday Witchcraft still is! (I tend not to check, so when I happen to look at the page, it is always a pleasant surprise. Thanks SOOOOO much to all of you who have bought a copy!)
#11 in Books > Religion & Spirituality > New Age & Spirituality > Wicca, Witchcraft & Paganism > #15 in Kindle Store > Kindle eBooks > Religion & Spirituality > Earth-Based Religions > Paganism & Neo-Paganism

All you have to do to enter the contest is to use the Rafflecopter form below and choose some or all of the options. (USA only this time, alas. Don't worry, I'll do another world-wide one in the new year.) 

Tell me, what do you celebrate at this time of year? Hanukkah, Yule, Christmas, or some combination? What do you do to celebrate?

Wishing you all a fabulous holiday season and a blessed Yule!

  2. Being Wiccan I celebrate Yule with my coven mates. We have a small ritual and dinner afterwards. We also exchange gifts. Now on Christmas eve however the rest of my family is christian so I vist with them on that day. Then finally on Christmas day my partner and I have breakfast with his family. And on Christmas night he and I spend some alone time with each other to make plans for the upcoming year. Thats the plan as of now...LOL..Blessings to all!

    1. Fabulous traditions. My first coven used to put on a community Yule ritual at the local UU Church and one year we enacted the battle between the kings. It was a blast.

  23. I celebrate Yule and Christmas as well, as I understand the word Christ to mean something more all encompassing than simply the Judeo-Christian term. Culture has associated the word in recent times with these religions almost exclusively, but I prefer to view it in its original literary context. I really enjoy incorporating the mythos and traditions from both cultures :D

  25. I celebrate Yule and a secular Christmas,which is also my husband's birthday! I blend the many traditions of my muttlike heritages with my husband's pure German roots for a delightfully eclectic Yuletide season!
