Hi! I'm writing a little something as a christmas gift, so I was wondering if there are any particular witchy activities/spells/etc. for around this season that I could include? It doesn't necessarily need to be christmas related, maybe yuletide or winter solstice or something similar? Thanks!

Have you checked my Book of Spells tag? Or my DIY tag? Or my Yule tag? The second two don’t have as much to sift through, but should point you in the right direction or give you ideas. The first has quite a bit, but is definitely a good place to browse. Additionally, please check out Natural Magic’s Spells, Lavender’s Spells, Aconite and Old Lace. or The Pagan Resource Page.

Have you read any Shakespeare plays? If you have which are your faves?

I remember reading... Romeo and Juliet, Hamlet and I think I might have read Richard III. 

But, truth be told, I didn’t really enjoy them. Maybe because I had to read them for school, maybe because plays are just not my thing. 

Hugs!
