Viking Yule festival ritual: Yuleblöt with Liz Cormell

Join us Thursday December 28th @ 3pm PST / 6pm EST for Viking Yule festival ritual: Yuleblöt with Liz Cormell

Celebrating the return of the sun, following the longest night, the 21st December, or Yule, was one of the most significant celebrations in the Norsecalendar. Not only did it last for 12 days but there is a whole book of sagas written about the creatures and characters who were believed to be involved.
Let Liz lead you through a modernised version of a Yuleblöt. Many parts you will recognise as they have been integrated into Christmas celebrations today. Welcome back the sun and cast spells for the year ahead by making offerings to different Viking gods and goddesses.
If you’d like to join in with the ritual you will need:
Fire pit, fireplace, or fireproof container,
A Yule log - any piece of wood that will fit in your fireproof container,
A tot of a special drink, whether that’s alcohol, tea or whatever, as long as it’s a favourite of yours,
A piece of cake or chocolate,
Dried herbs or incense - cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg.

    Liz Cormell

    Liz has known since a very young age that she can communicate with something that not everyone can. She comes from a long line of sensitives and psychics; this gift has been passed down the female line for many generations. Prior to developing this gift Liz admits that it used to frighten her but now she acknowledges most spirits are just people without physical bodies.
    When Liz was 17 she dated a guy who's mother was a Romany gypsy. This lady taught Liz to read tarot, using standard playing cards. This is a skill Liz practices, using multiple packs, and she provides readings for many people on a regular basis.
    From 2005 Liz has worked with many paranormal investigation groups and undertaken close to 1000 investigations at locations all around the UK, Ireland and even the USA. She would love to investigate many overseas locations including Poveglia Island, Venice.
    Liz has also been a practicing witch since her 30's and works mainly with elemental energy and the moon goddess. Recently, she has felt called by Morrigan and is doing more spell work using Morrigan as her guiding goddess.
    Despite this spiritual angle to her life, Liz is a trained Crime Scene Investigator and Forensic Archaeologist so likes to search for rational and logical explanations before calling something paranormal.
