Hi, my lovely witches, pagan and Wiccan friends!
Today you can celebrate Litha with me. Now what is the Summer solstice or Litha in its core and what do we celebrate besides the start of summer? Do you know how to celebrate Litha and what magick to do on the solstice?
I want to share some folklore and pagan traditions with you, give you Summer solstice ritual ideas, and of course, do some Litha-themed kitchen witchery!
In today's midsummer celebration we will watch the beautiful summer solstice sunrise, chat about some pagan customs of the Germanic and Celtic tribes, craft a joyful cottage witch Litha spell, learn about Midsummer and the different customs and traditions surrounding the summer solstice, go strawberry picking, bake a delicious sun-spiral charlotte cake with fresh strawberries, elderflower and basil, learn about the elder tree, the German fae and the pagan goddess Freya / Hulda and celebrate Litha together.
In other words: a wonderfully, magical witch vlog for this pagan holiday :)
Do you have a Litha ritual planned too? Why and how do you celebrate the summer solstice or midsummer?

The cool damp towel is a game changer for rolled cakes. I have always made them almost too thick to roll because it would tear. Telling me about the cool damp cloth was an epiphany! I always love your photography in each video.
Ahhhh Yaih - so glad you learned something new! I am addicted to watching cooking hacks hihi so when I came across that I was extremely please too! ☺️

that song on your walk at the end of the vid is very beautiful.
This will be my first one! I'm planning on baking, getting some flowers for my home, and spending the evening outside (I have to work during the day!)
That's exciting! ☺️✨ That all sounds like a wonderful plan - have a lovely celebration
I started watching your channel because:
- you have a lovely, joyous, calming voice
- very useful tips for beginner witches
- the videos are like a balm after a long day of work
Thank you, keep up your wonderful work!
Ooooow the song at the end is sooooo beautiful, it really touched my soul thank you 🙏❤️
we just celebrated summer solstice... and we made beautiful fruit platter with mango, pineapple, strawberries, and dragon fruit... and used as our center piece for our altar. [we are in south america semi-tropical] the ritual was sun going down about power and gratitude for what has been and what is yet to come - we chanted the name of the person/kid in the center raising power and then came the thunder and rain to close it, but the sun still shinning as it went behind the mountain. talk about high-energy!
Special times with celebration for us all. 🎉😊
Wow!!! Thank you so much for this view into your life and practice. Gorgeous videos, and your kind self shines through. I especially enjoyed learning about the Germanic fae.
Blessed Litha to you! This was such a joy to watch and I'm all inspired to celebrate the summer solstice (despite the blanket of grey clouds here ;)) Thank you! x
And to you too ✨ I do very much hope the clouds will lift for the occasion ☺️ so happy to hear you enjoyed the video!
Germany blessed with incredible
beautiful nature🍓😌
Thank you for your very positive vibes
I don't usually comment but I had to say, you help me in my own craft so much! I'm currently planning out summer solstice activities and writing down everything I can learn and this video is helping tremendously! Wishing you another beautiful and radiant Litha this year 🧡
Was ich alles von dir lerne Frau Holle👍und Freya
*What a beautiful video Bex* 💚 And so interesting!! Although I live in the alpine regions of Bavaria, I didn't know about the custom with the strawberries on the cows heads 😃 There is so much more to learn! I love the scene in the end with the fairy song in this beautiful fields - it made me feel nostalgic somehow ✨
Thank you so much 🥰 I believe that is rather an old rural custom. Btw I was just trying to schedule Juli and was wondering if you were available because I'd do a trip to your neck of the woods - maybe we can vlog a day 😁💪 will send you an Instamessage later on
It's so nice to find another agnostic witch. I love your content and Im glad I found you!
Yaih! Welcome to the channel 💚😊
Beautiful! I will make today some non alcoholic Elder Champagne Cocktail🥂😆 (Holunder mit Sprudelwasser, Eiswürfeln und Minze), then spend the day out, I already cleansed the house with some sage, all windows wide open...the summer air smells so good. Love your Video!💜
Yummmm - my favourite summer drink! Personally I love it with lemon balm and some lemons in it 🤤💛 sounds like a fantastic plan! Have a wonderful solstice und danke für den netten Kommentar

What a delicious 🍰 bravo 😋
Beautiful video! 😍 I love learning about the traditions
Thank you 💛 and so happy to hear that you enjoy what I share!
Love this vlog so much! Going to try and have a bonfire and might have to find a new recipe to try
I am so glad to hear ❤️ bonfire is always a top idea! Last year I made this elderflower lemon creme cake (video is online) - maybe that could be a fund thing to make ☺️
Around the solstices the veil might be thinning but I certainly am not.
I adore this share. So many ideas as usual and inspiring! Love your energy. Happy Litha sweet lady! This year I am doing a early morning rise Sunday morning to watch the sun rise and make wishes with the sun energy in an oak crown! Team Oak! Rituals galore!
Thank you, lovely! And a blessed Litha to you too with much summer sun and happiness 💛 that sounds like a wonderful plan! 🌳
Such an amazing video😍
Thanks so much 🥰
You, my dear, are totally amazing! 😘

Wishing you a beautiful Litha - at looking forward to learning more with you soon! Love and blessings from the beautiful Berkshires of western Massachusetts in the US.

Beautiful video!
💛🌷 thank you
Thank you for sharing so much.
You are wonderful
❤️ thank you, lovely! Glad you enjoyed
Beautiful video,thank you. Solstice Blessings.
Thank you so much 🥰 a beautiful Litha to you!
Awesome! It’s so interesting to learn about traditions still alive in your culture. I was so confused when you were talking about the veil thinning and my mind went, “A whale? What’s making it lose weight?” 🤣 Your accent is adorable. 😍 😄
I’ve been loving your videos since I found you, but I’ve definitely noticed that they’re just getting better and better! Thanks for all your hard work!
There was a war for such a long time that some humans and witches were not seeing eye to eye and that reality is coming to an end for our freedom but not use for us for everyone. I have noticed a trend in my witchcraft purchases globally and in fashion that has been going on with a great world healing and manifesting to back to our fairytale lives. Keep being the best you!🎈🎈🪐🪐⚰️⚰️🔥🔥🧚♀️🧚♀️🎉🎉🌙🌙🍻🍻🥀🦇🖤🌹🕷️
I was thinking the exact same thing when I watched it back and now grief a missed comical editing opportunity 😂 and yaaaaaih - thank you for saying so! I try to improve and learn every time - which unfortunately means my editing time gets longer and longer 🙈
@@Thewitchescookery I love your edits! 😆 The dainty sneeze one made me laugh out loud. I suddenly surprised sneezed so loud in the woods the other day that I thought I might have scared the local wildlife for half a km around.
Thank you so much, very beautiful video and interesting stories! I have almost forgotten about the Litha, and your vlog reminded me of it. Yes, the last piece with the song was amazing and beautiful. You are always so cheerful and full of energy, it inspires me a lot) It is always interesting to find common and diverse things between different old traditions.
Thank you so much - this really made me so happy to read! ❤️ I absolutely adore to research different cultures and traditions too - it is so interesting! Have a wonderful solstice ✨💛
Superschöne Aufnahmen! Du hast den Sommer in wunderschönen Bildern eingefangen! Danke!
☺️💛🌷
Litha Blessings! Thanks for another wonderful video full of info and inspiration, including lifting a whale LOL.
Summer solstice blessings to you too 💛 hihihi still crying about that missed funny-editing-opportunity 😂🐳
Ich liebe deine Videos 😍 so so schön, ich hoffe, ich kann dieses Jahr auch damit beginnen, mit meinen Kindenr zusammen zu feiern. Den Kuchen werde ich auf jeden Fall nach backen ♡ Danke für deine schönen Videos!
Oh Danke! Das freut mich total 🥰 ich hoffe dir und den Kids schmeckts und das ihr eine schöne Feier habt 💛
I love this. My youngest daughters bday is jun 21! I love your videos!!
Oh Yaih - a true sun child 💛😀 then you can celebrate double!
Ahhh…watching your videos always makes me yearn for my youth in the woods of our neighbor state.
❤️ hihi you will have to tell me more about those days and the woods! Much love
I LOVE how you give instructions for a body workout while making a cake that is going to get so comfy on your hips! 🤣🤣🤣 Du bist einfach die beste! 💖💖
Hehehe well, you have to burn those calories somewhere if you wanna have a cake and eat it too 😀❤️
Have been really enjoying your videos! and your son is so sweet, reminds me of my own toddler :) thanks for all your efforts in making great educational and inspirational content for us; it is so appreciated.
Thanks so much, sweets! 💚 Aren't toddlers the best? (Well, you know - at least some of the time, when they are not having a tantrum / not sleeping / being little monsters 😁)
SWEET
🧡☺️
The footage of the sunrise was incredible, I'd love to know how you managed to do that.
Also you're just sweet and lovely and I could watch you read the newspaper. 💛Happy Litha
Thanks so much, lovely lady ❤️ I didn't do much but point my camera at nature to be honest hihi also, don't think I have forgotten you! I just had so much work to catch up on after my three week break that I am just now starting to get back into some sort of routine but I will message you soon XX
@@Thewitchescookery Glad to hear it. I'm looking forward to our eventual chat. But please don't feel rushed, just reach out when you're ready. ❤
Hi, I enjoyed the video a lot, it was so up lifting. I will have to try the cake it looks real delicious, I have always felt taking a walk in nature always did my soul wonders, relieves stress, makes me more relaxed and just brings your body energy. Thank you for sharing.
I am so happy to hear that! ❤️ And I do hope you will find the cake deliiiicious. Nature is so incredibly healing 🌳✨🌙
This is just the inspiration I needed to get back into my craft. Thank you. 💕✨
So happy to hear you found it inspiring for you path ☺️✨💚
@@Thewitchescookery Yes! I would also love to hear more about German folklore from you. 💙
I shall definitely be talking more about it in upcoming videos (especially vlogs) ☺️
I enjoy your new video a lot! 😊 You and Alwyn are so magical, and your magic reach out to the world (and to me 💚). You are so lovely and your son is so cute. 😄👏🍓 Wonderful Litha to you, Bex! 🌞🌻
P.S. Heiden TV talks also about the moss womans in the new video. 😉
Aaaaaah so happy to read this 💕 I don't know if you saw Alwyn's video on Litha but our ideas were sooooo similar 😂 I do wish you the most magical solstice celebration 💛 oh and I have seen links to Heiden TV in a Facebook group but never watched! Will do so now
i love the song in the end, do you have any witchy playlists? if so i'd love to hear about them in a video maybe? i super appreciate all your hard work. You are an amazing person, and i hope you have a nice day(:
So happy you were a recommendation!
Love your content and viewing you as we hit 118 here in the Southwest 😫
Thanks so much for this sweet comment! And hang in there 🥵🥵🥵💪
Thank you for the beautiful Litha video ❣️ I think I might make the cake, yum, but we're too hot here 95-102°F, to bake right now; but the first time we get a storm I will. Your little son is quite the scene stealer💗 Enjoy and protect the world around us, infuse love and magick into everything. Blessed 🐝
And thank you for your wonderful comment 💕 uffff, that is indeed hot 🥵 last year I made this no-bake elderflower and lemon tart for Litha which is a bit less work but equally delicious - maybe that could be a good stand in 😀 much love and magick sparkles to you!
Wow!! I love this entire video.. down to every detail!!💗✨🌞🌕💛thank you!!! So beautiful!!!
Ooooh Yaih! So happy you enjoyed it and hope you had the most beautiful summer solstice ✨💛
@@Thewitchescookery I did!!! I live in the hills/ forest of Tennessee, I enjoyed the summer solstice on the beach though!!🥰it so was magical!✨🙌🏻🌞🌕💯I hope yours was wonderful as well!! Thank you for creating, I love learning from you!!! I found stones/ crystals for the first time in my life washing up on the beach, just before that I molded the sun in the sand and covered it with crystal chips as a offering… I seen rainbows at sun rise… it was a truly magical solstice!!🙌🏻🥰💯✨
Greetings from Hamburg😍. I celebrated my first summer solstice this year in my new apartment . I did my first fairy ritual and enjoyed the day sitting on my balcony crocheting, drinking mint strawberry sun tea.
Ohhhh that all sounds so wholesome and wonderfully magical! Bright blessings and greetings aus der Oberpfalz 😊🌼
Your Litha cake looks delicious and it's lovely to look at. I will have to try making it, though that will be at a later date. Strawberries are my favorite also since childhood and, it seems, they may also be your son's favorite as well. He is absolutely adorable. Bavaria is beautiful. I remember, when growing up, I was always reading the Grimm Brother's stories, lol. Bavaria fascinated me with its rich history and tales of it being haunted.... Maybe it was simply Hulda and her helpers going about taking care of nature...?... :) Have a wonderful Midsummer. Many Blessings.
Thank you so much 🥰 I do hope you enjoy it, once you make it! To be fair, my son loves aaaaanything edible 😂 so happy to hear, you enjoy Grimm's fairy tales! I am a big fan too hihi and it is definitely true that Bavaria seems to carry its own magick with all the beautiful nature and forests 🌳🌲💚 have a wonderful summer solstice
This was informative, relaxing and very enjoyable....I love to be in the garden and feel very close and connected to the Earth, as we are also made of it! It is very relaxing and I wish you well, as a Christian woman, I do no spells but enjoy all the moments that God gives....blessings to you* the folklore is fascinating.
Oh I am so happy to hear you enjoyed it ❤️ nature is such a great gift indeed. Bright blessings ✨
Hi beautiful LOVEDDDD THE VIDEO my little man eating strawberries he's so cute I could just squeeze him I'm definitely going to be making that work of art cake this weekend thanks so much my beautiful sister love you to pieces give my little one kisses for me wishing you a blessed Litha sending you love and light Blessed be sis 🤗💖😘
Hello lovely lady ❤️ I am so so happy to hear that! So awesome you are making the cake - please let me know how you liked it! I wish you a beautiful Litha and solstice celebration and send you all my love ✨🌙💛
What awesome strawberry field🍓🍓
I absolutely love it!
@@Thewitchescookery i belive you 🍓😂
Das wusste ich nicht mit den Frauen danke für das tolle Info 👍👍
Meines Wissens ist das auch in verschiedenen Teilen von Deutschland unterschiedlich - am meisten weiß ich aber über Bayern ☺️
@@Thewitchescookery Ja klar ,Bayern ist dein Zuhause und wunderschön, war schon paar mal im Urlaub wird Zeit für noch einen🙂🤗
I think by the time I drove back home, there would be no strawberries left! 🍓😋😉😁
Wishing you are yours a happy Solstice! 🌞🌞🌞🌞
Hehehe that is why I picked 2.5 kg 😜😂 happy solstice, lovely lady 💕
@@Thewitchescookery 😂😂smart! Thank you 🙏😊
Thank you for this lovely video. I'm terribly upset to find that your video and not my own mind was what reminded me that it's almost Midsummer. I've been struggling a lot this year dealing with a narcissist trying to sabotage my world, and this week has been pretty rough. I didn't remember Midsummer.
I can't wait for a day when I'm free of him entirely and can focus again on my Craft.
Thank you for the reminder.
Hihi before I was making videos about it that happened to me too 🙈 so sorry to hear that you are struggling with a toxic person in your life and I do hope you can rid yourself of that negativity very soon and focus on you, self-care and your craft ❤️
@@Thewitchescookery Thank you for your kind words and wishes, they mean a lot. I am very close, if I can just make it through the summer and fall I think it will be over by winter.
What you do here is wonderful, it is so good to see Witchcraft positively represented, it's been a "bad thing" for so long and witches have been in hiding for far too long. Thank you for having the bravery to be so open with your "Gift" as my great-grandmother called it.
your videos are a gift. thank you . happy solstice
🤗 all the hugs for you! A happy bright solstice :)
I'm so happy I stumbled across your channel! I definitely connect with your more scientific views on the craft and its therapeutic and psychological benefits. I've been practicing for about a year, and most of the resources here on CZcams I found to be somewhat pretentious, treating witchcraft like something to almost be feared. Your very hands on, eclectic, and free style is so refreshing and inspiring 😊 I can't wait to continue enjoying your videos!
P.S. I absolutely love your inclusion of local herbs and mythology in your work! My father's family was also from southern Germany so I love finding out little facts about the region.
Weclome to the channel! 💚 I am so happy to hear, that you enjoy the content and share my sceptical & scientific views! Such a sweet comment - thanks so much 😊 I figuered you must have some roots here with your suuuuper Bavarian surname hehe what part is your dad from?
@@Thewitchescookery lol yess my surname is usually a dead giveaway, although so many people struggle to pronounce it where I'm from😂 but I'm proud of it☺️ and from what I understand, his family came from a region known as Swabia!
It's so awesome hearing from you and thanks so much for your kind words and spirit!
@@bryceaschenbrenner4580 I can imagine! Ooooh, Swabia has soooo much good foooood 🤤 there is a CZcamsr called the art of Nature Germany and she is from that region and films a lot about the culture, food and nature
@@Thewitchescookery oh I will definitely have to check her channel out! Its a dream of mine to visit some day and enjoy all the beautiful scenery and food! And beer of course 😂😊 your vlogs are absolutely stunning and definitely inspire me even more to come and see my ancestral Homeland 😁 also I saw your post on Instagram about your camera! I'm so sorry that happened and I definitely understand the struggle of affording a new one 😖 I hope that you are back up and running soon so you can continue doing and sharing what you love! Sending peace and good vibes your way😊
In Slavic Paganism in Ukraine (half of my background, but I'm also half German) we have Kupala. Flower crowns for daaaaaays with ferns and poppies and other herbs. It's supposed to be incredibly hot here on Vancouver Island for the next 2 days, so there will be lots of swimming in the river. I developed a strawberry allergy after chemo and it's the saddest thing ever because I miss strawberry desserts SO MUCH!
That sounds so magical! I love the different Slavic traditions so much too ❤️ that is such a bummer with the allergy (and the chemo ofc too 🌷) - strawberries really are hard to beat!
@@Thewitchescookery I am chicken sitting for a friend and her garden is exploding with strawberries. The temptation is there lol
We must buy them
By the Goddess I have missed you! Once again, need to be at my computer for a proper response. Between these last two videos a ritual did present itself, but it’s for you. Will do tomorrow after your Patreon and DM you 🤗🙏🏽 xo K
❤️ you are always the sweetest! And so kind and thoughtful of your witchy family. I love ya soooooooo much
Your wonderful environment boa what a word😂
Hehehe well, we have nothing else here
@@Thewitchescookery hehe i must come to holiday 😂
I wish this was normal for Europeans living in South Africa :( I am doing my first Litha this year
oh no my asparagus is still growing today XD i just picked one last night! the rhubarb is done though x)
two korean dramas i watched talk about the moon and sun...:)
“Then, i must be something like the moon,
using the light of a star like you?”
~ Go Mi Nam
“But the moon is not completely useless..
because even though there are may other stars at night,
the only thing i can see is the moon..”
~ Hwang Tae Kyung
i thought you said whale not veil 🐋 haha ♡
Love!! Thank you for your videos. I made a strawberry cake for beltane and wanted to make a different kind for the solstice but I may stick with strawberries they are so yummy!! What is the name of the song at the end???? Litha Blessings❤
Thank you, lovely! Strawberries are just sooooo good 😁 if you are looking for another cake inspiration: last year I posted a recipe for a lemon and elderflower Litha cake which is really yummy and symbolic too! The song is called the Fairies by Ramon Adilynn. Have a blessed Litha 💚
By doing cake, we think about
awer bikini body 😂😻😂
And by seeing such beautiful and delicious improvisation we forget
about awer bikini body 😌😻😂
A fabulous Litha witchy video, Rebekkah! What is the name of the song and the artist singing the faerie tune at the end? Thank you! ☀️🌸🧚♂️🍓
Thank you so much 🥰 it is called the Fairies by Ramon Adilynn! Have a beautiful Litha 💛
Thank you so much! Litha Blessings! 🥰💖
such a beautiful video!! this is the first year i am celebrating litha and i am pretty excited. Are there any German folklore or pagan traditions books you recommend to learn a bit more? Thank you for sharing your knowledge!!
Thank you so much ❤️ and how exciting! I do hope you will have a beautiful day. There are many great books most of them will however only exist in German language or Latin, plus the really good researched ones are all from the 1800s - so a bit hard to read. My favourites however are: Deutsche Mythology by Jacob Grimm and Sagen und Legenden aus der Oberpfalz by Franz X. v. Schönwerth
www.forgottenbooks.com/en/books/TeutonicMythology_10010358 this is the English translation, but I would only buy it if you are into tedious scholarly reading and have some basic understanding of Latin.
Great and magical video! :) Thank you. I would like to ask the name of the artist who sings the song - Walk with fae (beautiful witch music and a relaxing walk). I can not find it. That's so beautiful...
Thank you so much 🥰 the song is called the Fairies by Ramon Adilynn!
Beautiful video, Bex. :) Are you using a boom mic on top of your camera when you're outside? I'm researching for a new purchase. :) -Aurora
Thaaaaaank you! I am using this kit.co/The_witches_cookery/my-filming-equipment/rode-videomicro-comp and absolutely love it! For voice-overs I usually record with my Samson (but don't like it as much as the Rode ☺️
@@Thewitchescookery Thank you! Yes, Rode's tend to make good mics. I've only seen a few negative comments about them. I have a Rode for VO's but it's a USB mic that plugs into my computer.
Nice video. Could you please be so kind to tag the artists providing the music? especially the song playing during the strawberry field?
Thank you so much! So happy you enjoyed it ☺️ unfortunately, I don't remember the artist of the song and already deleted the raw file (so I can't check) but you should be able to find it on epidemicsound or with an app that recognises music pieces ☺️💛
@@Thewitchescookery thanks i found it (Rediscovering Freedom - joe e. lee). But maybe you can consider my proposal for future videos
Yaih! That's awesome. I will definitely keep it in mind for future videos 💚
Guten warmen Tag 🥵
🥵 guten Tag zurück von meinem kleinen Büro unter Dach - ich zerschmelz gleich über meine Tastertur xD

🖤✨🎶
☺️💛
In the UK we make drinks out of elder flowers. Not a Litha tradition as far as I know. Thank you for your videos.
Oh cool! We do those here too! Either Hollerwasser (non alcoholic brew) or a fermented version that is called Holunder champagne 🤤
@@Thewitchescookery I love the similarities! My Mother has made the champagne version. Quite partial to the cordial with lemonade myself.
😃
💛✨
In Russian "summer" sounds like "l'eto"
They told today in tv ozone hole is constantly bigger and bigger
Do you have a Germanic Honey Cake recipe that you can share?
Unfortunately no, as honey cakes are not really a thing here. But I could make something up for next year 😉
Where can I see bonfire in Germany? It's my first year here
Depends on the region! But you could Google 'Johanni / Johannesfeuer' in your area and see what places and festivities come up :)
I'm a big sceptic, but I'm really interested in learning about the practice of witchcraft and the ideas behind it. I don't have any idea where to start though, does anyone here have any suggestions?
Welcome and so happy to hear you find witchcraft intriguing! Nothing wrong with being sceptic - it is a mixing pool for people of different beliefs and cultures, nothing dogmatic or factual ☺️ there is even an entire SASSwitch community (Skeptic, Agnostic, Atheist, Science-Seeking). I made some video on this channel for people just starting out or wanting to know more ☺️💚 hope you find something useful there
@@Thewitchescookery thanks! I'll be sure to check it out!
Lecker, lecker 🥧🍰jetzt wäre ich echt gerne bei dir yummy
Hihi hättest gerne kommen dürfen - ich hab den Kuchen nach einem Bissen schnell an die Nachbarin verschenkt, damit ich ihn nicht komplett alleine aufesse 😂
