Yule Tree Visualisation for Winter Solstice Magic

Here is a guided visualisation to help you tap into the magic of the Winter Solstice. To do this you need to be sitting somewhere comfortable and safe, where you will not be disturbed.

You can record the visualisation first if you like, then play it back to yourself. It is perfect to do if you have crafted your own fairy or angel doll for you Yule tree, but that isn't essential. When you are ready to start, sit comfortably. Close your eyes and relax and then take three deep breaths in and out.

In your mind’s eye, visualise a beautiful evergreen tree. Image yourself dressing the tree with all of your favourite ornaments.

Last of all, you place onto the tree a fairy or angel doll. 

You stand in front of the decorated tree and look at it. Look at the beautiful, green branches and smell the scent of the pine needles. Admire your handiwork in decorating it.

As you observe the tree, you can see the vibrant green energy of the deep earth going up into it, up through its roots and into its trunk, flowing along its branches. 

You can also see silver energy from the heavens coming down and reaching the top of the tree, flowing all over its branches, down its trunk and into the earth at its roots. 

You see the two streams of energy mingle and combine, suffusing everything on the tree and making it all glow with light. As you watch, the energy flows into your fairy or angel, bringing them to life. They glow with energy. 

You see that your angel or fairy has eyes and a mouth and other features on their face. They look at you and speak. “Do you have a wish?” they ask you.

If you do have a wish, tell your fairy or angel what it is you wish for this Yuletide, and know that your wish will be heard by the spirit of the season.

Spend a little more time conversing with your fairy or angel.

When you are ready, bring the conversation to an end. Say your goodbyes, but know that your fairy or angel will be watching over you and throughout this Yuletide. Your tree and all that is on it will be filled with the magic of the season.

Return now from your visualisation. 

Be aware of your body. Take a deep breath in and out, wiggle your fingers and toes, then open your eyes when you are ready.

It is also a good idea to have something to eat and drink to help yourself ground after doing any visualisation or magical work.

If you want to make your own angel or fairy doll to decorate your tree, here are my instructions for making a tree topper angel and a hanging angel or fairy ornament.

You can also view my book Pagan Portals - Poppets and Magical Dolls on Amazon. It has lots of information about dolls for seasonal celebrations, among other things. 

2020 UPDATE: This guided visualisation is one I've included in my latest book, Pagan Portals - Guided Visualisations. It is officially published on December 11, but some shops already have it on their shelves. I'll be offering a new guided visualisation for the season in my Facebook Live launch event, which you can find out more about here: https://www.facebook.com/events/353859452274902
