At 2022's Midsummers Litha, dried and dehydrated Sweet Orange Slices threaded with red cotton cord and hung so the sweet citrus scent can waft through the home. The orange is a masculine and feminine fruit along with its embodiment of the Sun and Sunna. When hung on the window, the light captured is filtered through. In truth the tradition of threading and hanging produce in ethnic euro culture was to dry out the produce such as citrus and apple slices so forth, in season and seasonal. The peels also promote balance, harmony, prosperity and purification in white racial tradition of folklore and racially ethnic witches. Adorn the Western home with garlands of citrus window slices strung, for the ethno botanic seasons of Europa to follow into prosperity. I like to keep these garlands up until Summers Bealtaine in the following year in which I burn the dried slices/with cord into the first bonfire of the summer season. See the link at the end of this post on how to dry the orange slices. Botanical Matters...Orange or Sweet Orange (Torthaí Oráiste in Irish)
