As the holiday season surrounds us with lights, laughter, and the allure of perfectly wrapped gifts under the tree, it’s easy to get caught up in the material side of Christmas. My short poem, “Christmas Cheer,” is a playful yet ironic take on this very aspect of the festivities.
The poem paints a picture of a neatly wrapped gift under the tree, a symbol of effort and love—but also of a tapped-out pocket. It’s a light-hearted observation of how we sometimes go overboard with spending, letting the shine of the material overshadow the deeper, spiritual essence of the season.
Christmas, at its core, is about connection, joy, and love. The wrapping paper and ribbons are delightful, yes, but the true cheer lies in the moments we create with loved ones—the laughter, the warmth, and the shared memories that no amount of money can buy.
So this Christmas, let’s celebrate the spirit of giving, but also remember to cherish the non-material gifts: kindness, presence, and love.
Wishing you all a Merry Christmas filled with true cheer and meaningful moments.
This Thanksgiving poem, along with other poems and a video, are coming very soon. Christmas Challenge coming next consisting of one poem a day. I already wrote with my daughters more than 20, and we are also designing free e-cards to share. Many of the Christmas poems are already scheduled. I am using these poems […]
Who loves the Scorpio season? I admit I didn’t love it until now because I had noticed that my beloved Scorpio and I got into fights during his birthday season. Of course, I blamed him. But now I know that I was getting triggered by his increased honesty, and perhaps he deals with more heaviness, to which I reacted during the season. And I’m a baby Scorpion during the season…
During this season, we all become Scorpios. The difference between me being a Scorpio for 1 month out of the year is that I am not in control of this energy. My beloved (and healthy Scorpios everywhere) has been living in this energy for over 40 years. Scorpios are masters of this energy. Their stoicism is their way of not letting this energy control them.
For example, Scorpios are notorious for being extremely sexual beings, which is true, but you would not know that by being in their presence. They’re not like the weird men I have known who are perverted and all they talk about is sex and are out of control, literally out of alignment, so their thirst for sex is unquenchable. Scorpios got the magic. They don’t need to come off strong like those other weirdos. Those guys don’t have that magic, so they pretend, and their karma is to have fast women manipulate them using their distorted sex needs and weaknesses.
Scorpio’s love of sex is not their weakness. It’s a strength and a way to connect for them. It is a love language. It’s also their easiest way to union.
In my country, they say: “a dog who barks doesn’t bite” and in this case, the loud barking dog is the weird guy who acts big and appears very sexual but can’t please a woman… Scorpio is a quiet dog who will watch you, attack if needed, and when they attack, they attack with everything. They have the power and energy to both attack and seriously injure a person or to actually please their woman, but they will not brag. We, the beloved women of Scorpio, do the bragging! I brag about my beloved, but this is my public journal, so please forgive me.
Scorpio season started on October 23rd and ends Nov 21
The Scorpio energy is dark, mysterious, sexy, powerful, and transformational. It’s the energy of the Phoenix, the energy of death and rebirth. The energy of lovemaking and union with one’s beloved. The energy of the underworld, our inner depths, our darkness, our shadow, and the energy of the transmutation of our darkness. It’s the energy of mastery of one’s power. It’s a powerful, powerful energy we can use to ascend and to deepen our connections and our union.
So it’s no surprise (this proves astrology is real) that the days we celebrate during the Scorpio season are the dark, death holidays. Halloween, we’re looking at you. But that’s not it…
Scorpio season Holidays
These are not official holidays, but have you ever considered if the celebrations we have during the Scorpio season hold the Scorpio energy? Well, look at this list that intends to prove they do.
Halloween 🎃 👻 🎃 was fun in 2023
Halloween is a Scorpio holiday. Not surprisingly, during this time of year, we celebrate the darkness, fear, and spirits. We play tricks and scare others. Some are afraid of the darkness of this holiday. Some even call it demonic, though I don’t agree!
Dia de Los Muertos (Nov 1 and Nov 2)
Not surprisingly, a day after Halloween, in Mexico, a similar celebration is happening, Dia de Los Muertos (Day of the Dead) a holiday to celebrate the dead family members and also it is said to be a day when the spirits of our family members are close to us. This was my beloved’s favorite celebration as a kid. So I plan to start celebrating this holiday next year.
Samhain
I know you’re not surprised that the Samhain dates coincide with Halloween and Day of the Death because this is said to be the original of the Halloween celebration and the energy is the same all around the world so though people celebrate different holidays, they are all celebrating the amazing and intense energy of death and rebirth or the energy of Scorpio.
Samhain is a pagan religious celebration. It celebrates the start of the dark part of the year. During this middle point between the light and dark parts of the year, the veil is supposed to be thinner, and thus, we are supposed to be much more likely to perceive spirit.
During Samhain, people celebrated their dead ancestors just like in Mexico they’re celebrated during the day of the death. People also wore costumes like we do on Halloween (I was a ballerina this year).
I have slowly started to celebrate Samhain because I see the pagans as the underdog (compared to christianity, certainly but even compared to other major religions), and I always root for the underdog.
The American presidential election (USA)
Sorry to ruin the Scorpio fun by reminding everyone about the elections and the political differences of the citizens. But out of the entire year? Why did the American government choose to have elections during the ♏️ season? I will say it’s best not to get involved with the lower Scorpio vibes of jealousy, violence, hatred, and revenge. I have no idea why the elections and politics made me think of those low vibes… oh, it’s because these low vibes are exploited during this season. The election 2020 ruined my beloved’s birthday, so I despise the election time. Horrible timing!
Veterans Day (USA) Nov/11
Celebrating veterans during the warrior season of Scorpio ruled by the God of war, Mars? Sometimes, I think the governments use astrology. You know, like how the new king of England was crowded under the powerful eclipse on 5/5/23? Think about it…
Scorpio celebrations
I thought Halloween, Dia de Muertos, and Samhain were the only dark Scorpio holidays, but check out these other days celebrated or observed by enough people to land on calendars. I wanted to convince you that Scorpio had dark holidays, but I have actually convinced myself.
National day of the deployed. (USA) I see plenty of war celebrations during the season. (Oct 26)
Worldwide howl at the moon day. Interesting celebration… (Oct 26)
National black cat day. Right before Halloween (Oct 27)
Cranky coworker day. Lol. Who comes up with this? A Scorpio might. I have to say I have had cranky Scorpio coworkers. Not all Scorpios like me, I guess. (Oct 27)
National text your ex day. What the heck? Please don’t text your ex… It sounds like an obsessive/ obsessed Scorpio ex-girlfriend/ ex-boyfriend or a low vibe Scorpio. (Oct 30)
Mischief night. (Oct 30)
World vegan day. Interesting, and how many Scorpios are vegan or vegetarian? Please comment (Nov 1)
National author day. I wonder how many Scorpios are authors? With such deep emotions, they would make excellentwriters. Omg, Scorpios would make badass poets. Omg, please, where is a Scorpio poet? (Nov 1)
National stress awareness day (USA) Scorpio energy (Nov 1)
November is the National novel writing month. Super cool. So, how many Scorpios write novels? It’s probably the hottest, sexiest novels that are born during the November Scorpio season. I’ll save my novel writing ideas for November…
Plan your epitaph day. Lol 😆 😂 😅 such Scorpio energy. (Nov 2)
Pumpkin destruction day. It’s such a hilarious thing to do. (First Saturday after Halloween)
Use your common sense day. (Nov 4) This is also Scorpio energy, but honestly… Has anyone created a sex day? It should be on 11/11 if I get to create it..
Gunpowder day. Very interesting. Raise your hand if you’re a Scorpio with a strange love for weapons. Does it mean sense? Your ruler planet is the violent ruler of wars, Mars. My lover was obsessed, he told me, with drawing weapons as a child.
Chaos never dies day. I am not making this up. Scorpio season has a celebration of chaos in our lives, and the energy of this holiday is… Scorpio energy. I told you… (Nov 9)
On the same date, we celebrate world freedom day. Something Scorpio would love, but Scorpio understands there’s is darkness in the world and probably doesn’t believe we can reach freedom on a world scale. (Nov 9)
Forget-me-not day. This is not a day dedicated to the flower, but instead, to remembering and getting in touch with loved ones. Not surprisingly, some use it to remember passed on loved ones (a mini day of death). To me, it feels like a Scorpio remembering all their old friends and girlfriends who they have loved. The name of the holiday sounds obsessive to me! Please don’t forget me. 🙏 (Nov 10)
World peace day. Again. War and peace are coming into our consciousness during the Scorpio season. Just like death and rebirth, the dark and the light. (Nov 17)
Occult day. 😆 🤣 😂 tell me, does this feel like a Scorpio holiday? Scorpio is the ruler of the occult… (Nov 17)
Have a bad day day. Who celebrates this day? Well, this is a real thing, and does it not feel like the heaviness of Scorpio noticing all that is heavy and dark in the world? (Nov 19)
The Scorpio season Holy days
This being a spiritual blog, let’s talk about the days we spiritual folk celebrate during the Scorpio season.
Already passed for 2023, but if reading in the future, also use the season’s full moon, and if there are any eclipses for your manifestations.
1111 is said to be a twin flame number, and the portal is said to be excellent for twin flame union. My beloved was born not on this day but during the portal, which opens before the 11th and closes later. I feel this portal has already opened. I read that starting Nov 11th, the biblical flood waters started to subside. So was it on this day that a rainbow graced the sky, signifying the end of God’s murder by flood?
See a list of different spiritual/ religious celebrations, holidays, and meaningful days falling during the month of Scorpio. Please help me add to this list. I do not observe all of these at all… this is for research, for fun, and for future reference.
Nov 1: All Saints day. Is this the religious version of Halloween/ Samhain/ Dia de Muertos? Same date and also celebrating and remembering dead people?
Nov 2: All souls day. Similar to above, but for all souls, I believe in this faith, so not necessarily your soul of mine. So definitely not all souls but Christian souls of passed Christians.
November: month of remembrance for catholics. With all saints and Samhain to start the month. Catholics spread the remembrance through the month. I have been a Catholic and celebrate catholicism somewhat. I still used to call myself a Catholic until my Scorpio was like what?
Nov 12: Diwali, a Hindu celebration of our inner light. Hindus all over (and I might start observing this day). The victory of good vs. evil is celebrated, and the light is celebrated. Good vs. evil reminds me always of Scorpio. This is a time to turn inwards I read. I’ll have to learn more about this celebration… read about this holiday through the link below this list
Nov 21 is supposed to be the day when Noah, his family, and his animals left the Ark. I don’t know where these exact biblical dates come. Obviously, I can’t prove anything here, and my knowledge of the Kabalah is I’ve heard it’s a thing… I will be looking into the Kabalah, Hinduism, budism, and more as I research spirituality but right now, I’m just sharing which days are celebrated during the month of Scorpio and it appears folk celebrate coming off the Ark. In Scorpio terms, this would be a time of rebirth.
Nov 10: Hindu festival of Dhanatrayodashi or Dhanteras. I never heard of it, but it’s a grand celebration. Need to learn about Hinduism, and this list is for my reference in the future. I’ll be learning about this one.
A powerful time indeed. Nov 13 (depends where you are in the world)
Scorpio new moon. Is this the most powerful day of the year. My monologs deck says to work through our fears
This card suggests a rebirth says the Moonology oracle book. Think of the rising Phoenix. A new start is coming. Things might get dark, but it will be transforming. Work your magic right now. A sexier time is coming. Emotional intimacy is on the menu. To attune to the moon, have some sexy time, says the book.
Additional meanings for this card: let go of a grudge. Move on from jealousy. Stop being obsessive. Make an investment. Face your shadows. Transmute your pain.
New Moon in Scorpio. Nov 2023
Spiritual days to celebrate in November 2023. I just found this, and I have to check it out. Thoughts about this practice?
Please let me know of holidays and holy days I missed, I’m interested in foreign as well as ancient celebrations during the Scorpio season. Comment please, and I will add them to this post.
Thank you for reading and I pray we have the strength of character needed to accept the harsh feedback we will receive during the Scorpio season and I wish that by the time the season is closing, we will feel like the Phoenix associated with Scorpio. ♏️ 😊 😉
There’s so much to be grateful for this season! This has been an amazing time and I’ve been very blessed!
I’m grateful for my mom and her skills. Check out the lovely clothes she’s made for my new baby, due in 2022!

I’m also super grateful for the outfits she made for my 3 older girls!

And I’m so grateful for my mom’s generosity! She sent the 3 big girls beautiful dresses for Christmas 🎄
And yes, she sent Christmas presents for all the children and myself. She sent me a sewing machine, which I’m already using. I’m so grateful for all of this.
I’m very grateful for my mother in law’s generosity. She wanted to send us a gift card so we asked for our favorite store for the children, so we took them shopping for the clothes they wanted and needed! Always my favorite present.
I’m very grateful for my health and that the baby in my tummy is healthy as well. I’m feeling my best at 6 months pregnant!
I’m grateful for my new podcast Twin Flame Lovestars which is about 2 weeks old and I love to podcast so much! Check it out! https://anchor.fm/eve520
I’m very grateful that the school semester ended and my children doing really well on their tests (if you wonder, they’re in K12 online school). I’m also grateful that they have school online so they don’t need to go to a masked school or be asked to vax!
I’m very grateful for my oldest daughter growing up. Yes, I like babies and toddlers but I love having conversations with the big girl. She suddenly wants to be real clean and make her bedroom much better. I offered to remove the 2 young girls who, well, make huge messes in the bedroom but she doesn’t feel right about kicking her younger messier sister out of her bedroom, she’s just sweet 🧁
I’m very grateful for my 2 oldest daughters getting into writing. My oldest just wrote a children’s story (link below) and the second wrote a poem in school! I’m very proud and love the fact they love to share!
Children poem written by a child
I’m also grateful that they want to have their own channels, so I started both my oldest girls on Rumble.
I’m really grateful for finding a midwife who can come to my house for my baby’s delivery. Her service seems divine and I cried talking to her for the first time. I have to still tie some loose ends but I’m most excited to have the birth experience of my dreams!
Talking about mom again, I’m so so grateful for her! She gifted us a Christmas tree, we’re grateful for the tree! I’m grateful for having lots of energy this holiday season, we have decorated and made DIY decorations. I’ve been sleeping little…
I’m very grateful for all of you that have visited me this week and the fact that I had many more readers on my blog. Grateful that suddenly I want to blog so much more and I’m so creative.
I made beautiful napkins in red as part of my Christmas decorations, they’re so pretty. Today I watched my toddler boy get a small napkin and put his bowl of food on top. It was the cutest thing! I’m very grateful for my hands and their abilities and my inspiration.
Talking about the sewing machine, I’m so grateful to have it that I didn’t waste any time. I made a dress and skirt so far as Christmas presents and a lovely holiday dress for myself, planning on making a shirt as a Christmas present also and intend to never stop.
My twin flame and I are very grateful for manifestations of wealth coming to us at the moment.
I’m very grateful for my new transition glasses, loving them
I’m super grateful that it has been raining. We don’t get snow but when it snows up North, we get rain.
So grateful for my mom, the best gift giver. She even knows what to gift my twin flame. She made these booties for my baby.
Yesterday, 12/21 we had the winter solstice happening for those of us in the Northern hemisphere. And what better way to start the Holidays than with a wholesome spiritual celebration? Spiritual celebrations have helped me get in the holiday spirit, which I lacked big time prior and I’m getting my children involved. My oldest is talking about celebrating Yule. 😁🌻🎄
Goddess oracle reading
I pulled 3 goddess cards to get a divine winter solstice message. I pulled Quan Yin, and the queen of Shiba with the full cup of affirmation which means a big yes! See the video through the link below for the card meanings.
On my podcast (Twin Flame Lovestars https://anchor.fm/eve520 ) I have talked about the winter solstice twice. On my last episode, I shared the goddess oracle card reading but with a twin flame twist. Listen for the twin flame messages which were beautiful. See links below 👇
Winter Solstice colors
This year I’m being called to work with yellow as inspiration for the sun during the Yule celebration and green to aid in heart activation with Quan Yin. Gold is good too to help with manifestation. I have been staying up late and waking up early to make my new yellow dress which I’m so happy about.
Holiday Decorations
Through the years I have not decorated for Christmas very much. I never really liked the consumerism of the holiday and the guilt and the force, you have to do this or else… I don’t like that at all and that is why my new spiritual celebration is so special, I have learned to get into the holiday spirit and through the holiday spirit I found the Christmas spirit.
This year we have a new Christmas tree. I have 4 children which is why I have even tried to celebrate the holidays. The children get super excited about it and they love to help, my little toddler gets so excited and he loves to decorate the tree and it’s really fun to decorate for the girls too, however, this year I started celebrating Yule and I have been watching so many awesome, incredible Yule videos on YouTube. See my link below for my Yule and Christmas playlist on YouTube. There’s so many good videos there from creativity and decor, food and more of how to celebrate Yule. I’m a newbie at Yule so you will want to know from people who have been celebrating for years.
This year I started decorating with cinnamon sticks and I loved having a reason to buy them because I only used cinnamon powder previously. I love the cinnamon smell. I also started decorating with star anise seeds wich I had a ton leftover from when I was breastfeeding because Star Anise is fabulous for milk production, the leftovers I had still smell delicious even though they’re a few years old, I used them to make garlands with my children and they absolutely loved the experience, we put garlands on our Christmas tree and also I hung them on the wall. It was super special, super fast and easy to craft these with the kids and the smell is just delicious. I will leave a few Links of some videos that I made with my kids about making the garlands and decorating our tree with them and some pictures of the decorations
Winter Solstice dress design to fit my growing bellyLilli made videos for Christmas
As I started decorating for Yule, I noticed similarities between Yule and Christmas decorations, for example I had a Christmas advertisement come on my phone, because you know our phone listens to us and noticed how similar the DIY decorations were to Yule decorations, there was a garland with dried orange slices for example. Somebody who has no idea what Yule is asked me the other day what is up with the oranges at this time of year? The oranges symbolize the Sun and in Yule we celebrate the Sun during the winter so we’re expecting the sun to come back.
Another idea that I started using about 2 years ago is decorating the Christmas tree with pinecones, this year before Christmas I have a plan to take my kids to pick up pinecones at the park and they’re really excited about it. 2 years ago I made a video about making a pinecone garland to decorate our old tree, we only have some pinecones left from the garland and we secured the pine cones to our Christmas tree, I want more pinecones because there’s so many cute ways to decorate with pinecones such as adding some glitter painting them, etc, there’s many ideas in my Yule/ Xmas playlist ☝️.
An idea I have used for years and love is making beautiful ribbon bows and making my own bows to decorate presents and of course I love paper crafts so cutting snowflakes is something that we love to do. Ok also love making wrapping paper bows to ad to gifts. Since we’re still celebrating Christmas I expect to continue posting about my DIY ideas.
In the end the winter solstice was a great way to start the celebration going into Christmas and Yule I will be celebrating from the winter solstice until this Sunday after Christmas, to introduce more of the Yule celebration to my children, we will be reading myths and stories about the people who celebrated Yule and about the gods and goddesses that they celebrated.
And how wonderful that the celebration stretches into the new year week and of course the days off are wonderful and it also helps that children are off of school at the moment. This has become one of my favorite times of the year. Let me know how you are celebrating the holidays and what do you think about the Yule celebration?
Much love my beloved and may you have wonderful celebrations and create awesome memories and new traditions, talk soon,
