Seasonal ritual
Celebrations tied to seasons and natural cycles are common in many currents.
What it is: Neopaganism frequently organizes part of religious life around seasonal changes and cyclical festivities.
How the tradition understands it: Solstices, equinoxes, harvests, renewals, and natural passages become moments of memory, devotion, and community.
Textual basis and context: The practice is very strong in Wicca, modern druidism, and other nature traditions.
Debates and variations: Dates and meanings can be adapted to hemisphere, climate, historical reconstruction, or local preference.
