The Wheel of the Year is an annual nature-based calendar rooted in a Celtic cosmology. Think of it as a helpful map that supports you to orient your life to the wisdom of the seasons. 

This map is illustrated by a circle and is divided into eight equal sections. Each section is associated with one of the eight Celtic seasonal festivals (also known as Sabbaths or holy days). 

Every season brings with it natural laws, archetypal messages, symbolic associations, energetic invitations and challenges that support you to live natures wisdom and stay attuned to natural laws associated with ongoing change.
