In Ireland, this holiday was celebrated by the Celtic druids as Grianstad An Gheimhridh, celebrated in a manner similar to the Nordic Yule, placing four candles of various colors atop a log and letting them burn down over the night. While the story of the Holly King and Oak King are certainly an interesting play on the dual nature of the Horned God, there is no official evidence they existed in Celtic folklore prior to their introduction into the Wiccan religion in 1970, so I feel no need to include it in my druidic practice, though I understand why others do.
As I explore my own cultural connection to the Celtic druidic tradition, I find that it is but a small thing to reintroduce the celebration of season. We have lost our wildness, and as all animals follow and accept the changing of autumn into winter, winter into spring, spring into summer, and summer into autumn again, so must we as human animals do likewise.
It is coming close to darkness now. Gather with your friends as you can. Light fires, small or large. Eat warm food. Drink as you feel led. And most of all - rest.

Following this, Sebi, in an order passed in January 2022, established that the administrators of a Telegram channel having a large subscriber base enticed the subscribers to act upon recommendations that were circulated by those administrators on the channel, leading to significant price and volume impact in various scrips. "He has kind of an old-school cyber-libertarian world view where technology is there to set you free," Maréchal said. Telegram has gained a reputation as the “secure” communications app in the post-Soviet states, but whenever you make choices about your digital security, it’s important to start by asking yourself, “What exactly am I securing? And who am I securing it from?” These questions should inform your decisions about whether you are using the right tool or platform for your digital security needs. Telegram is certainly not the most secure messaging app on the market right now. Its security model requires users to place a great deal of trust in Telegram’s ability to protect user data. For some users, this may be good enough for now. For others, it may be wiser to move to a different platform for certain kinds of high-risk communications. "And that set off kind of a battle royale for control of the platform that Durov eventually lost," said Nathalie Maréchal of the Washington advocacy group Ranking Digital Rights. As the war in Ukraine rages, the messaging app Telegram has emerged as the go-to place for unfiltered live war updates for both Ukrainian refugees and increasingly isolated Russians alike.
