The Night Before Winter Solstice: An Earth and Nature-Based Spin on a Christmas Classic

"A soon to be cult classic on the true origins of Christmas and Santa Claus as rooted in Norse mythology, the Sami people of the Arctic circle, and the celebration of the Winter Solstice!" -Erke Frisk

"A fun new holiday tradition reminding us of the spiritual importance of the sun and sacred medicines."
-Mackenzie McGowan

"A revival of a forgotten culture and a rival to Tim Burton's "The Nightmare Before Christmas"." -Jack Prost

"An ethnographic and ethnomycological study of Christmas past, clothed in interesting art and a magical tale. It both pays homage to the original poem by Clement Moore and blazes a new trail." -Unni Veikkanen

"This book brings back the rich meaning of a now empty holiday that was stolen by religion, secularism, and commercialism." -Daisy Harshbarger

"An artfully drawn and well-researched bridge between Norse Folklore and modern-day traditions. It makes festive a dark winter night and gives us a connection to our ancestors." -Janet Guess

"Calling all pagans, wiccans, hippies, sun-gazers, psychonauts, astrologers, astrotheologers, metaphysicians, mycophiles, esotericists, shamans, shintoists, yogis, astronomers, spiritualists, festival goers, cultural psychologists, Norwegians, Swedes, Finns, Russians, Laplanders, Greenlanders, Koryaks, Alaskans, reindeer herders, circumpolar peoples, and nature-lovers...This is your book! This is what you should be reading on Christmas." -Emily Saunik

"Santa was a shaman and he delivered gifts of medicinal fungi!" -Nick Ritzenhein

"Light and Dark are perhaps the oldest source of religious motifs there are. I'm so glad there's a holiday book out there that reminds us all of that." -Reyansh Agarwal

"The man has invented his own nature religion! And I'm likely a new convert." -James Codi

"Move over Christmas, lets bring back Yule, Saturnalia, and Solstice!" -Reese Collins
