it is not to earn money here, even that I have a currency on my grid.
My intention is to open minds.

Dear Friends,
I have planned this day for weeks. I have made a description without personal details.
I am preparing a set out of my music collection that is a bit of a wild mix and ride through different styles of music.
Feel free to jump in anytime. I know there are lots of other parties going on.
If I could I would love to visit them also...
- your space shuttle
- the turning wheel
- the witch
- the animals

Mabon Celebration
The animals on my picture:
🐘 The Elephant — Memory, Wisdom, Abundance
The elephant represents memory, life experience, strength, and community . In your image, it feels like a large, calm protective presence in the background.
That fits Mabon particularly well:
We look back at what has grown and acknowledge what has carried us.
The little sign hanging from the elephant is also interesting:
FREEDOM · CREATIVITY · HEART SPACE
This almost turns the elephant into a guardian of your three central values .
🐆 The Black Panther — Strength, Independence, the Unseen
The panther brings a completely different energy: instinct, self-determination, inner strength, and the ability to move through darker phases .
It is lying there calmly. It does not need to prove anything.
That fits beautifully with the transition from the light half of the year into the darker season:
Not everything has to be fought. Some things are allowed to return to the darkness.
🐺 The Wolf — Community and the Individual Path
The wolf is particularly interesting because it represents both community and individuality .
It belongs to the pack — while remaining an individual creature.
That connects directly with your word:
COMMUNITY
Mabon is also a celebration of sharing, community, and gratitude for what has been created together .
🧸 The Teddy Bear — The Inner Child
The teddy bear is, of course, not a Celtic symbol historically. But within your personal image , it serves a different purpose.
It represents:
comfort
security
vulnerability
playful creativity
the desire to protect something precious
And that creates a beautiful contrast with the large, wild animals.
The woman is holding the bear for a reason : between the panther, wolf, and elephant there is something remarkably gentle.
👩 The Woman in the Center
Actually, she is the connecting element.
She sits between:
Panther – Bear – Wolf – Elephant
and therefore between instinct, vulnerability, community, and wisdom .
That makes the image much more interesting than simply a “fantasy autumn scene.”
🍂 And the Fruits in the Foreground?
The pumpkins, apples, grapes, nuts, and grain are actually the clearest Mabon references for me:
Harvest → Abundance → Gratitude → Sharing → Transition
And that is why your subtitle
LAST FAMILY MEETING
works so well: it transforms the scene from merely an autumn celebration into a kind of last gathering together before the changing of the season .
The symbolism of the whole image
If we read the entire image as a symbolic language, it could be summed up like this:
🐘 Remember
🐆 Be strong
🐺 Belong
🧸 Stay tender
🍂 Give thanks
🔄 Turn the wheel
That, in my view, is the stronger interpretation than trying to assign supposedly “original Celtic” meanings to every animal.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The turning wheel of animals:
🐘 Der Elefant – Erinnerung, Weisheit, Fülle
Der Elefant steht für Erinnerung, Lebenserfahrung, Stärke und Gemeinschaft . In deinem Bild wirkt er wie eine große, ruhige Schutzfigur im Hintergrund.
Das passt besonders gut zu Mabon:
Wir schauen zurück auf das, was gewachsen ist, und erkennen an, was uns getragen hat.
Interessant ist auch das kleine Schild an ihm:
> FREEDOM · CREATIVITY · HEART SPACE
Damit wird der Elefant fast zu einem Hüter deiner drei zentralen Werte .
🐆 Der schwarze Panther – Kraft, Unabhängigkeit, das Unsichtbare
Der Panther bringt eine völlig andere Energie hinein: Instinkt, Selbstbestimmung, innere Stärke und die Fähigkeit, durch dunklere Phasen zu gehen .
Er liegt sehr ruhig da. Er muss nichts beweisen.
Das passt hervorragend zum Übergang vom hellen zum dunkleren Teil des Jahres:
Nicht alles muss bekämpft werden. Manche Dinge dürfen einfach in die Dunkelheit zurückkehren.
🐺 Der Wolf – Gemeinschaft und eigener Weg
Der Wolf ist besonders interessant, weil er gleichzeitig für Gemeinschaft und Individualität steht.
Er gehört zum Rudel – und bleibt trotzdem ein eigenständiges Wesen.
Das passt zu deinem Text:
COMMUNITY
Mabon ist schließlich auch ein Fest des Teilens, der Gemeinschaft und der Dankbarkeit für das, was gemeinsam entstanden ist .
🧸 Der Teddybär – das innere Kind
Der Teddybär ist historisch natürlich kein keltisches Symbol. Aber in deinem persönlichen Bild erfüllt er eine andere Funktion.
Er steht für:
Trost
Geborgenheit
Verletzlichkeit
spielerische Kreativität
das Bedürfnis, etwas Wertvolles zu bewahren
Und genau dadurch entsteht ein schöner Kontrast zu den großen, wilden Tieren.
Die Frau hält den Bären nicht zufällig in den Armen: Zwischen Panther, Wolf und Elefant befindet sich etwas ausgesprochen Sanftes.
👩 Die Frau in der Mitte
Eigentlich ist sie das verbindende Element.
Sie sitzt zwischen:
Panther – Bär – Wolf – Elefant
und damit zwischen Instinkt, Verletzlichkeit, Gemeinschaft und Weisheit .
Das macht das Bild viel interessanter als eine bloße „Herbst-Fantasy-Szene“.
🍂 Und die Früchte vorne?
Die Kürbisse, Äpfel, Trauben, Nüsse und das Getreide sind für mich sogar der eindeutigste Mabon-Hinweis:
Ernte → Fülle → Dankbarkeit → Teilen → Übergang
Und genau deshalb funktioniert dein Untertitel
> LAST FAMILY MEETING
so gut: Es macht aus der Szene nicht nur eine Herbstfeier, sondern tatsächlich eine Art letzte gemeinsame Zusammenkunft vor dem Wechsel der Jahreszeit .
Wenn man das ganze Bild als Symbolsprache liest, könnte man es so zusammenfassen:
> 🐘 Remember
> 🐆 Be strong
> 🐺 Belong
> 🧸 Stay tender
> 🍂 Give thanks
> 🔄 Turn the wheel
Das ist meiner Meinung nach die stärkere Interpretation als zu versuchen, jedem Tier eine angeblich „original keltische“ Bedeutung anzudichten.

I pick songs I can dance to while cleaning the kitchen — because apparently, I need a proper soundtrack to get those dishes done. And honestly, it works! The more I dance, the more motivated I get. 💃🕺
And there’s another side effect: my cooking seems to be getting better and better. So clearly, dancing is part of the recipe. 😂
Now I’m making these mixes for my parties, too. Which means you have absolutely no excuse: I expect you to get up and DANCE in front of your computer! 💃🎶🔥
No sitting there politely listening. I’ll know. 😉
for the next party i have prepared a set with a wild mix of music...
everybody will get a piece of the cake, i promise!
The cake is real, I mean i made it in real life... and want to share the recipe for low sugar cake...
on my very first region Cozy Comforts World i had created a big hill for that kind of party... is an open air place with lots of animals... i will update it for the party on thursday...
(I wonder if thursday is really better than sunday what i used to have for events for many years... in opensim are 5 events at the same time, often spontaneously, anyway it is not possible to really plan anything and is like roulette on any evening of the week...)
The Summer Solstice marks one of nature's most extraordinary moments—the longest day and the shortest night of the year. As the sun reaches its highest point in the sky, it bathes the world in light, warmth, and life, reminding us of the powerful connection between humanity and the natural world.
For thousands of years, cultures across the globe have celebrated this special occasion. Ancient peoples gathered on hilltops, in forests, and around great bonfires to honor the sun and give thanks for abundance, growth, and the blessings of the season. These traditions continue today, bringing people together in a spirit of joy, reflection, and community.
The Solstice is more than an astronomical event. It is a symbol of vitality, creativity, and possibility. It invites us to pause and appreciate how far we have come, while looking forward to the paths that still lie ahead. Just as the earth flourishes beneath the summer sun, we too are encouraged to nurture our dreams, celebrate our achievements, and embrace the opportunities before us.
As daylight stretches into the evening and golden rays paint the landscape, the world seems filled with a special kind of magic. Bonfires glow against the twilight sky, music drifts through the warm air, and laughter echoes among friends and family gathered together. It is a time to celebrate life, friendship, love, and the beauty of the present moment.
The Summer Solstice reminds us that every season has its purpose. It teaches us to honor both growth and change, abundance and gratitude, light and shadow. While this day marks the peak of sunlight, it also gently reminds us that all things move in cycles, encouraging us to cherish each moment while it is here.
Tonight, under the endless colors of the midsummer sky, let the warmth of the fire inspire your spirit. Release what no longer serves you, welcome new possibilities, and carry the light of the Solstice within your heart.
May this sacred celebration bring you joy, peace, inspiration, and unforgettable memories.
Happy Summer Solstice.

Hey friends and live music lovers!
Winter will sing and play guitar for us on 28 of April at 11 am slt.
It is a thursday before Beltane.... Beltane is the big witch festival in pagan holidays.
In old celtic tradition it is a spring time party with some erotic atmosphere.
Our ancestors might have group sex, who knows?
Our party will be at Cozy Comforts Zetaworlds Beach.
With Winter, you can be sure that you will only get a real live performance. There is no pre-recorded playback. You get all the little variances of his "in the moment" showing, as he radiates out to each of you that request his interpretation, the finest music in SL. Yes, my friend, WINTER IS HERE!

Portrait of the Celtic Holidays: Yule,
the rebirth of light - historical and
Winter solstice rituals
Yule is the name of the winter solstice festival on December 21, which is one of the holiest sun celebrations in the Celtic year. At the same time, the twelve so-called raucous nights begin on the shortest day of the year, followed by the longest night. These were considered particularly magical by the Celts, which is why they fumigated their home with special herbal mixtures every day during this time.
December 21st marks the time of the lowest position of the sun and thus the beginning of winter in the calendar. Nevertheless: From crisp minus temperatures on the thermometer to snow mountains to almost spring-like conditions, everything is possible at the moment. After all, the days are getting longer again from now on; it is also said that light is reborn.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Portrait des fêtes celtiques : Yule,
la renaissance de la lumière - historique et
Rituels du solstice d'hiver
Yule est le nom du festival du solstice d'hiver du 21 décembre, qui est l'une des célébrations du soleil les plus sacrées de l'année celtique. Dans le même temps, les douze nuits dites tapageuses commencent le jour le plus court de l'année, suivi de la nuit la plus longue. Ceux-ci étaient considérés comme particulièrement magiques par les Celtes, c'est pourquoi ils fumigaient leur maison avec des mélanges d'herbes spéciaux chaque jour pendant cette période.
Le 21 décembre marque l'heure de la position la plus basse du soleil et donc le début de l'hiver dans le calendrier. Néanmoins : des températures négatives croustillantes sur le thermomètre aux montagnes enneigées aux conditions presque printanières, tout est possible pour le moment. Après tout, les jours rallongent à nouveau à partir de maintenant ; on dit aussi que la lumière renaît.

Die keltischen Feiertage im Porträt: Yule,
die Wiedergeburt des Lichts – Historisches und
Rituale zur Wintersonnenwende
Yule heißt das Fest zur Wintersonnenwende am 21. Dezember, das eine der heiligsten Sonnenfeiern im Keltischen Jahr darstellt. Zugleich beginnen am kürzesten Tag des Jahres, gefolgt von der längsten Nacht die zwölf sogenannten Raunächte. Diese galten bei den Kelten als besonders magisch, weshalb sie ihr Heim während dieser Zeit täglich mit speziellen Kräutermischungen ausräucherten.
Der 21. Dezember markiert den Zeitpunkt des tiefsten Sonnenstandes und damit den kalendarischen Winteranfang. Dennoch: Von knackigen Minustemperaturen auf dem Thermometer über Schneeberge bis hin zu beinahe frühlingshaften Zuständen ist momentan alles möglich. Immerhin werden die Tage ab jetzt wieder länger; man sagt auch, das Licht wird neu geboren.
