Winter Solstice is Upcoming

Winter Solstice, the most important traditional Druid holiday between Samuin and Imbolc is next week. To celebrate the upcoming, Crumby Ovate is fixing to go festive doing what Ovates do, ovations. That’s right. An ovation or two may help offset the obtuse shortage of Vitamin D which is also a tradition in these parts at this particular season.

Here we go.

After Winter Solstice, tiny Planet Earth shall tilt upon its axis slightly. Once that happens, Ogma’s rays shall zip on through the atmosphere more efficiently. Anon, the current Vitamin D shortage shall be as a fog enveloped memory of some Alzheimer’s afflicted old timer. Yea verily, everyone shall temporarily forget the Vitamin D shortage just as those old timers forget this or that. Instead, problems with the air conditioning and irrigation shall trouble many. Yea verily, many shall wrinkle their brows. Why do many fret so? Easy that, the AC could break down again, or the irrigation could get shut off. Goddess forbid that either of those twain potentialities actually transpire. Mercy!

Then also consider the national scene rather than these parts, merely. Barbers shall seal the fate of progress in the nations’ capital. Yes. Those barber’s shall shave heads just like the sheep are shorn at Imbolc. Yea verily, the inevitable slide into barbarism or barbarity shall continue apace, paced by the barbers. Yes. The ruling class barbers opt for barbarism as the only safeguard against those twain historic booger bears of the ruler barbers, socialism and savagery. Or, paraphrasing George Will, There is no way the ruling class should provide a welfare state for a bunch of ignorant savages.

Where’s Samson when we really need him?

Finally, consider the tiny globe that some call, Earth. The rulers shall decide that we need to use up even more fossil fuel faster than ever before. But we also need to use some energy that we can’t use up. Like sunshine, for example, is generally considered impossible to use up. So in those rare instances where the use of sunshine for energy does not hurt the economy, we can use the sunshine. That’s what the rulers shall decide after they give everybody a haircut.
