Smoking during the Twelve Nights – Rediscovering an Old Tradition

Smoking during the Twelve Nights

Incense Workshop with Author Nina Stögmüller

Workshop with Nina Stögmüller, including a short lecture and reading on the Twelve Nights, as well as incense tips for home.

In Nina Stögmüller's books "Tales of the Twelve Nights" and "My Twelve Nights Diary," the tradition of incense burning is also addressed. This ancient ritual, which is particularly practiced during the time between Christmas and Epiphany, is a central aspect of the Twelve Nights and an important part of the author's two books on the subject.

In this incense workshop, the author shares her accumulated knowledge of incense burning to pass on the basics of this tradition to interested participants. Attendees will learn valuable information about incense and how to easily perform an incense ritual at home. There will also be discussions about customs, history, and various types of incense. To ensure that the new knowledge doesn't go up in smoke, participants will receive materials to read at home!
