Whoa! This speaks to me so much more than any wheel interpretation I've ever heard/seen. This is precisely how we look at the seasons as well and I've always had a tough time incorporating this into the more contemporary wheels most pagans describe. Thank you for sharing this!
Love this, while I follow the traditional wheel I love how you have the seasons split up, Imbolc for me is usually snowy and cold and rarely has any first signs of spring. I might incorporate some of these when I one day have a house and can start growing a garden again.
Thanks! That makes a lot of sense. I like the idea of 1st spring, 2nd spring and so on. It's nice to hear someone who is actually on a farm talk about paganism and how it relates to the land in real life. I like it.
This is another great video, Yucca! I never knew you liked to draw, I loved your illustrations and wouldn't mind seeing more :) I would also love to hear more about your celebrations and personal journey of faith, although I know you are a private person. Thank you so much for sharing these parts of yourself with us.
Baby green with here and was planning on learning about this subject and looked at all the videos and looked really complicated and planned on skipping this but I’m so glad to have found your video. Love your explaining and teaching!! 😝💕
This is so well done! I really like your interpretation of the wheel of the year. I can see the permaculture influence as well. It will be interesting to see how the images you are making and spoke of on Pagan Perspective turn out.
I do have a question though. As an eclectic witch who doesn't follow necessarily the wiccan path, can I incorporate the wheel of the year into my practice, celebrating the Earth, Universe, Energies etc, and not the Gods?
I gotta say, I was most excited to hear another person say ‘cran.’ I get called out so hard for saying ‘cran’ instead of CRAYon hahaha this is a wonderful video also. Just nice to know I’m not alone
@@madeofyucca btw, is it okay if I don't incorporate gods into the practice? I know that's weird but I think I'd rather celebrate those "atheistically" if that makes sense
I am just starting to look into paganism however I identify as nonthiest. Usually when I see depictions of the wheel of the year it’s centered around deities but this one doesn’t seem to be. Am I wrong? If not this is perfect!
"Atheopaganism: An Earth Honoring Path Rooted in Science" and "Godless Paganism: Voices of nonthiest pagans" are two great book resources on nonthiest paganism :D
I am mind fucked. We worshipped the sun. The wheel of the year is time in a wheel representing the sun. Sun cross. Celtic cross. Look at the Scottish saltire flag. It’s not st. Andrew. It’s the sun. The UK flag IS the wheel of the year. Look at the butterfly cross in orkney, look at the chalk drums in Yorkshire. Look at the inside architecture of Newgrange in Ireland it’s a cross inside of a circle!! The Roman Empire worshipped sol invictus. That’s the “unconquerable sun.” The only time it’s conquered is when there is a solar eclipse. Rome sacrificed Jesus under a solar eclipse!!! It’s called “crucifixion darkness” in the bible. So Rome took the cross which is one of the oldest symbols in the world and put a man on it at the only time the sun gets conquered, Jesus becomes the “sun of god.” So polytheism is wiped out, and our nature is taken away from us, our attention shifts to a cross on the wall and the power of man. Think about what Judaism is, it was distinctive in being monotheistic. Rome goes there and tried to make Europe monotheistic after! when there is only one god, religion becomes power, political power! This is how Rome got its power, and it has shaped the past 2000 years.

That's the same for us with Imbolc, it is still very much cold and winterish!
Somehow just discovered you had this channel, and I'm so excited to see it! I love your take on the wheel, and I'm in awe of your art skills!
Aw, thank you :)
Did you find the channel through The Wonder? Or somewhere else?
Cool explanation, love the drawings too!
Great system. Thank you for sharing. I love how you relate each season to a piece of the natural world to honor. Beautiful.
Thank you so much Jenelle!
That was so beautiful

So it glad it spoke to you :)
Most comprehensive and thoughtful explanation I've ever heard/seen. So amazing, I love the music too.🙏Thank you🍁🐝🐓
Glad you enjoyed it!
This is incredibly beautiful and also extremely useful content. More videos like this! I love how you draw. :)
Thank you :) what kind of video topics would you be interested in seeing more of?
Maybe you could do a drawing series like this going more in depth for each of the seasons.
+SM C Will do!
That was beautiful!
Beautifully drawn and even better explained! Thank you!!

Thank you so much. That is very encouraging. I am working on the Imbolc and Ostara videos now.
That was beautiful

Thanks Danni! Permaculture is so central to our world view, it's awesome to hear that recognized.
I do have a question though. As an eclectic witch who doesn't follow necessarily the wiccan path, can I incorporate the wheel of the year into my practice, celebrating the Earth, Universe, Energies etc, and not the Gods?
Of course! :)
There are many different non theist pagan approaches!
Did she just freehand a perfect circle? 😳 ⭕️
I gotta say, I was most excited to hear another person say ‘cran.’ I get called out so hard for saying ‘cran’ instead of CRAYon hahaha this is a wonderful video also. Just nice to know I’m not alone
Haha! I didn't even know that wasn't normal until you pointed it out ;)
Thank you so much for this ❤️
I'm glad it is helpful :)

@@robenkhoury7079 That's totally okay! I don't believe in gods either :) There are lots of pagans who are nontheists.
@@madeofyucca oh okay! That is perfect! Thanks 😊

Hi Kayla! That's right, I also am nonthiest!
