Wondering how you can send this to me. Would love to post it.

We have been dancing through our own health conditions and the loss of some old friends while deepening new as well as old relationships and it has lifted our spirits to know so many wonderful people!

So....we're just calling it a bunch? Cool. The need to make masculine by using man as a prefix always seems forced.

Listen here and for $1 you can buy the song and support the artist. It's one of my life's works to see this song sung everywhere. It deserves to be a known. jessicaradcliffe.bandcamp.com/track/one-sm...

3. Light the other candles from the first. A stick of incense helps. Make sure to have a bowl of sand to put the incense into. Carry the candles about your home, one for each room, while singing the song. A flame is not diminished when lighting others. Be safe. Don't leave candles unattended.

Bramble Shane @brambleshane.bsky.social · 19/12/2024

2. Light a single candle. Play "One Small Candle" from the album Beautiful Darkness by Jessica Radcliffe. Sing along and take the time to meditate on the flame.

Bramble Shane @brambleshane.bsky.social · 19/12/2024

1. Perform on the night before Winter Solstice Day, or whenever your family observes. Gather a collection of safe candle holders and prepare to light. Turn off most of the electric lights in the home. You can leave Holiday Tree Lights or Twinkles for safety.

A Simple Winter Solstice Ritual: A 🧵. If you do nothing else to mark the longest night, the Solstice Eve, do this. Be still for five minutes of the night and start with one small candle. Let the light grow from there. Blessed days, holy nights.

Down Through the Winters by the The Portland Revels. This Revels album is a soothing balm. Mix of Medieval and Trad, as well as spoken word. "The Year" tells the wheel of the year towards the Winter Solstice. The perfect companion with the great poem that all the Revels use, "The Shortest Day".

Bramble Shane @brambleshane.bsky.social · 06/12/2024

Through the Bitter Frost and Snow: By Susan McKeown and Lindsey Horner. A favorite in our home. Bold Orion is one I sing to myself all the time, watching him rise as Winter comes on. "Winter King" is another stellar original. "Green Growth The Holly" is the best arrangement of that trad song.

Shane Odom Song of Solstice by Jennifer Cutting's Ocean Orchestra. Our friends band, Jennifer Cutting & Stephen Winick. Includes a Green Man song which was inspired by my Green Man Order, which she and Stephen are members of. "Light the Winter's Dark" is a hymn for the light of all the prophets.

On the Solstice, weather allowing, we light our bonfire, turn off all lights in the home, and then bring in one candle lite from the fire. We use this flame to light many others, scattering the light about the home, while singing this song.

Beautiful Darkness: Celebrating the Winter Solstice by Jessica Ruby Radcliffe , Lisa Ekström & Martin Simpson. Enchanting mix with some traditional and spoken word. Notably is "One Small Candle" and it a personal mission to spread that song far and wide. Our family Solstice ritual uses it.

Thread of unique Holiday music. Awake Arise: A Winter Album. By Lady Maisery, Jimmy Aldridge, and Sid Goldsmith. It's a marvelous collection of traditional English Folk music for the season, spoken word, and original. Truly a journey through winter to be listened to in it's completeness.

Very much looking forward to reading it. Check out Tom Wisner. They called him the "Bard of Chesapeake" which in one way is one of the Earth's greatest rivers, the Susquehanna, fed by many others. youtu.be/EFa9Ec0ZTH4?...

Reading "The Wild Places" by @robgmacfarlane.bsky.social and using my drawing of a Green Man as a bookmark. It's a testament to both our connections and losses of wildness.

"The leaves fall, the wind blows, and the farm country slowly changes from the summer cottons into its winter wools." - Henry Beston (Northern Farm) The wind has been blowing here on Dartmoor and we're definitely in our winter wools now. Lottie and I wish you a good weekend.
