Susan Cooper's The Dark Is Rising was the first novel I ever read that celebrated the darkest days of the year. Cooper's story combined Celtic mythology, Arthurian legend and Christianity in a heart thumping fantasy.
It makes sense to me that all over the Northern Hemisphere, people celebrate at this time - with lights, and fires and revelry. After all, it feels as if the sun is leaving us. Call back the sun with noise and joy, warmth and light, peace and truth.
That's what I wish for you now and in the coming year - Light, and Peace, Warmth and Truth, Joy and Love - oh, and noise, too, of the happiest sort.
Fight the Dark!
