25 Gifts of the Wyrd: Vantljusstaken - Sunwait Candle Lighting

In This episode, I talk about the growing world-wide tradition of Väntljusstaken/Sunwait Candle lighting. This is a revitalizing of the advent wreath candles with a Heathen/Pagan purpose to help bring in the Yule time.  The Sunwait candleholder has six candles to be lit the six Thursdays (or other days of the week) prior to Yule/Winter Solstice.  Have a listen here or read about it on my Substack post. There is a poem to go with the lighting of each candle here in English, but also on the Facebook page in Swedish, French, German and Dutch.    Share photos of your candles and your experiences in the comments of the @Vantljusstaken Facebook page.  Follow  on Instagram @sunwait_candles and use  #Väntljusstaken #sunwaitcandles.
