Wiccans Link Yule to Sun Rebirth and Earth Cycles

South suburban resident Mora Geiger explains that Wiccans honor the winter solstice as the sun's rebirth and a return of earth connection. The faith emphasizes balance of male and female energy, sisterhood of the three ages of woman, and pagan symbols like red and green in Christmas lore. Geiger notes Yule rituals include candle lighting and earth-centered gifts. A Yule Sabbat is planned for December 22 from 7 to 9 p.m. at Earth & Beyond in Tinley Park, aligning with a rare full moon.
