silverwitch:- Beltane is the perfect time for Hand Fasting.

Hand-fasting is an ancient  ceremony that was initially meant to last One year and a Day when you would have to either make your full vows or part ways.
It  dates back to pre-Christian times and usually involved the tying or binding of the hands of the bride and groom with a cord or ribbon and the jumping over a broom.
Today Hand-fasting can be seen  as the traditional one year and a day or as a full wedding ceremony.

This is a continuation of the first one. It got such a good response I thought I’d do the next one quick smart - who knows how many there might be altogether ;)

Skadi
A giantess, called the ‘snow-shoe goddess’, and the embodiment of winter. She is the wife of the god Njord. When her father Thiazi was slain by the gods, Skadi wanted to take revenge. The gods thought it wiser to reconciliate and offered her a marriage with one of them. She was free to marry any god, but while she made her choice she was only allowed to see the feet of the potential candidates. She noticed a very elegant pair and, convinced that their owner was the fair god Balder, she choose them. Unfortunately for her, those feet belonged to the older god Njord. The marriage between Njord and Skadi was not a happy one. She wanted to live where her father had lived, in Thrymheim in the mountains, and Njord wanted to live in Noatun, his palace by the sea. So they agreed to spend the first nine days in the mountains and the following nine days by the sea. This arrangement did not work out very well, and they separated. Eventually, Skadi left Njord for the god Ull.

So today i finally got my Wicca book. I was going for “Wicca for Beginners” But when i got to the bookstore, they didn’t actually have one in stock. So i found this one, and read the back cover, and decided, this would be better than my first choice. And it IS. I’ve already read the first chapter, and it’s everything i was looking for and more. It’s literally a Wiccan Encyclopedia written by two experienced witches. I’m so happy :)
