At its heart, this Winter season was never about consumption or excess. It has nothing to do with killing baby pigs and putting their dead flesh in their own blankets of tortured skin. It has nothing to do with stuffing dead turkey birds murdered ruthlessly or eating and gifting dairy products made of milk of of stolen babies. It was originally all about nature, light, renewal, and love for all life. A celebration of Yule and the return of the Sun with the birth of Earth/ Nature as the new Wheel of the Year rotates again through the seasons.
