I was looking for a Yule planner (12 day) and really didn’t find what I needed. So I made a quick page and I thought I would share in case anyone else was in need of a little organizing for the holiday activities.
Happy Yule!
That’s a beautiful planner, @Sarafeena_Sage- thank you so much for this Yuletide gift! May your 12 days of Yule be full of festive joy and fun- have a blessed Sabbat!
Thank you very much. I hope everyone enjoys it. I am decorating mine with my spells8 stickers to give it more color and interest, since it is very plain.
Have a blessed Sabbat too @BryWisteria
And a Blessed Sabbat to everyone
I like how you added the name of the first eve: “Mother’s Night”. I think you could add some more labels. According to Germanic/Nordic folklore:
The second night is the Night of the Wild Hunt. Although the entire 12 days after Midwinter are considered the Wild Hunt, I think this is when it “officially” begins.
In Germanic traditions, the eve of the twelfth night is known as Perchta’s Day. Frau Perchta, also known as “the Christmas Witch” is depicted as a ghastly old crone. Specifically, it is believed that unless one eats a specific diet, Perchta will steal into the house and slit open your stomach.
In Norse traditions, the twelfth night is Oath Night.
In modern Ásatrú, there are different variations of the 12 Nights of Yule, but this is the common theme:
Modranecht (Mother’s Night)
Wild Hunt
High Feast of Yule, sacred to Thor and Frey
Sacred to Ægir, Njörðr & Freya (or sacred to the Vanir)
Sacred to Community
Sacred to Eir and Healing
Sacred to Thor
Sacred to Skadi & Ullr
Sacred to Odin
Sacred to Sunna & the Ancestors
Sacred to the Goddesses & Valkyrie
Oath Night
Here’s an even more modern reinterpretation for inspiration. From Wyrddesigns:
@Francisco That is amazing information- I can see from what you’ve shared that it looks like tonight is the Night of Wild Hunt (perfect, as we just finished the finale of the Witcher season 2 ). Thank you so much for sharing all of this- I’m taking notes!
Wishing a blessed winter solstice and Yuletide to all!
Thank you for all the information on the 12 days @Francisco. I wrote the info on my planner and I’m sure I will be able to use it this holiday and the ones to come.
