Heathen Holiday: Feast of Vali

Hail!

So it's time for another Heathen holiday. Here's one, the Feast of Vali. I won't be celebrating due to lack of offerings that I wanted to give.

This feast originally celebrated the death of Hothr at the hands of Vali. This late winter festival relates to the triumphant return of the light of the sun over the dark days of winter. Today it is traditional celebration of the family. A time for the customary exchange of cards and gifts with loved ones. It is also a time for the renewal of marriage vows and an occasion for marriages.
