The ritual itself was simple. We cast the circle with bells, read the Charge of the Star Goddess, and sang "Deck the Halls." We also shared personal news from the New Year to honor the turning of the Wheel.
Back indoors, we got into an impromptu gift exchange. One person brought craft supplies to share. So I hauled out our box of random Pagan goodies for people to look through -- candles, glass jars, incense burners, mojo bags, secondhand Tarot, etc. That was fun.
