A choice of Wiccans seem at the see as the periodic and repeating story of the Noble and the Member of the aristocracy.
Although Samhain is the Wiccan New Time, let's start with Yule. Here's a quick expedition of the Mount of the Year:
At YULE, which occurs at the time of the winter solstice in December, the Member of the aristocracy gives surprise to the Noble and rests from her slog.
At IMBOLC, in February, the Noble is seen as a curt boy, and the Member of the aristocracy recovers from giving surprise.
