The First Day

Happy New Year, everyoine!

Our topic this week is New Years' and the month of January. We start out with a New Year's prayer/spell, using an hour glass to meditate on changes that occur at this time of year. This was originally penned by Silver Ravenwolf. Then we'll talk about some holiday traditions, including a figure from Italian folk-tradition, known as La Bafanna, and also the Scottish New Year festival called Hogmany. And we'll also look at meaning and significance of "Twelth Night"

I hope you enjoy this week's show!

Some of the music you'll hear on this week's show include; Uncle Dirty Toes: "The Beautiful Year"; Fairport Convention: "Who Knows Where Time Goes"; Enya: "Only Time"; Peter Janson: "Snowflakes"; Bert Janch: "The January Man"and more.

Please listen to The Spiral Dance with Hawthorne each week. It's an online Pagan radio show & Podcast. The podcast gives you the option to either listen to right from the website or download to your computer. It's FREE and it's fun. Your suggestions and comments are welcome!

Each episode is approximately 75 - 80 minutes. Podcasts remain posted for about 4 or 5 weeks, so you can go back and listen to the other episodes for some great interviews, information and fun!
