What is the Wheel of the Year?
The Wheel of the Year is a Pagan cycle of eight seasonal festivals, celebrating phases of the sun, and interlaced with Wiccan deities' mythic cycles, marked by solstices, equinoxes, and sabbats.

St. Patrick's Day commemorates the death of Ireland's patron saint, celebrated since the 9th century with traditions of feasting and Christian symbolism. However, historical accounts of St. Patrick's life suggest a mix of probable embellishments and metaphorical legends, such as the tale of banishing snakes from Ireland.
