Amy Shiner: My Big, Gay Kinky, Universal Unitarian Christmas Spectacular! (PHOTOS)

Being Universal Unitarian, I am on my own spiritual path, which includes Wicca. My friends and I rotate places where we hold sabbats, and it was my turn this time. A few days before the "official" winter solstice (or Yule), we gathered to give attention not only to the darkest day of the year but also to bringing in more light in the coming six months as that days grow longer. Living in Vermont, that is certainly a big thing, given that it begins to get dark before 4 p.m. Among the differences between my altar and traditional ones is that I do not have lit incense (note the oil burner on the right-hand side of the photo), and it is not on the floor or a lowered table, where we could sit around it. My space is rather small, and it is safer to keep the altar up higher.
