New Idea, How Bout It?

I thought this was an interesting way to observe the changes of light and dark throughout the year...

"On my altar I will have 4 candles.... I have tried to figure out a simple but visually beautiful way of symbolizing Sabbats and their meaning, and here is my scheme into which this simple observance fits.


Yule - 1 candle lit during ritual.
Imbolc - 1 candle lit, a second during the ritual.
Ostara - 2 candles lit, a third lit at end of ritual or at sunset.
Beltane - 3 candles, one lit during ritual, making 4.
Midsummer - 4 candles, one extinguished at end of ritual.
Lammas - 3 candles, one extinguished during ritual.
Mabon - 2 candles, one extinguished at sunset or end of ritual.
Samhain - 1 candle lit, but extinguished during ritual."

What do you think?
