"Wheel of the Year"

8 1/2" x 11" pencil, printed in black on parchment paper

The wheel of the year is a concept of continuation and the cycles that the seasons of life run within. The Sabbat celebrations of nature spirituality paths are celebrated on the soltices, equinoxes, and cross quarters (the middle dates between solstices and equinoxes.) Each of these celebrations has special energies and correspondences, each one relating to another, and continuing on in a never ending pattern. The wheel teaches us that cycles of growth, harvest, rest, and renewal are important and can't exist without each other. We must learn to work within these cycles of life in order to better develop understanding and to prosper. By celebrating the cycles of the seasons and really experiencing them, one can discover many mysteries of life, the earth and magick.

With each sabbat illustrated and dates with a brief description of each celebration listed below, this piece fits right into a document frame and makes a lovely altar piece, or a nice decorative piece for your magickal home. It would also be a great addition to your Book of Shadows.
