The midsummer solstice, also known as Litha, is a significant time for Wiccans and other pagans. It is a celebration of the longest day of the year, when the sun is at its highest point in the sky. This is a time of abundance, growth, and energy. During the midsummer solstice, Wiccans engage in various practices to honor the turning of the wheel of the year. Here are eight common practices: 1. **Lighting Fires**: Lighting bonfires is a popular tradition during the midsummer solstice.

Alas, you gave up on the Yo-Yo and became a magician and restore the string to one piece - "Walk that dog, Mr Yo-Yo Man. "

It was so bad that eventually the sales rep at the school who sold it to you took the Yo-Yo and broke the string into little pieces and sent you home. After showing the Yo-Yo go up and down several times, you explain to your audience that, as a kid, the string was always far too long and the Yo-Yo would always hit the ground.

**Lighting Fires**: Lighting bonfires is a popular tradition during the midsummer solstice. Wiccans believe that the fire wards off evil spirits and invites positive energies into their lives. 2.

The classic Gypsy Thread effect built into an everyday object. Close up, Stand up, Kids shows, emcee's, this prop fits into any situation.

It's very rare to be able to add to your repertoire a 100% audience tested piece of magic. After hundreds of performances, tweaking and re-tweaking every last detail of the Gypsy Yo-Yo, you can rest assured every wrinkle has be ironed out.

Bring from you pocket a real Imperial Yo-Yo. After showing the Yo-Yo go up and down several times, you explain to your audience that, as a kid, the string was always far too long and the Yo-Yo would always hit the ground. Trying to adjust the length, you proceed to snap the string, breaking off a small piece. This is repeated several times until all that is left dangling from the Yo-Yo are a few inches of string.

The pieces are rolled together into a ball and added to the small, dangling Yo-Yo string. Without any cover etc., the very end of the string is slowly pulled, the ball unravels and the Yo-Yo string is once again fully restored. The string is wound back around the Yo-Yo. You finish by showing the Yo-Yo freely spinning up and down and back to its original state.

The gimmick is custom-built, inside a real Yo-Yo. We love the method and handling. This effect is perfect for so many different types of show. It is destined to become a classic for many years.

Perfect for stand up, strolling, kids' shows, emcees, trade shows. This prop fits into any performer's pocket and is always ready to go.

No worries, I was only referring to a small handling of a real YO YO, not a full blown act. I can only do around the world, and walk the dog, and of course the back handed throw and spin. That is all I was suggesting. Randi, maybe you are not old enough, but in the 1950's, the Duncan sales rep would come around and got the neighborhood kids gathered in front of the Five and Dime store. He would set up a contest, and best person would get a free YO YO. The others would get a sheet of instructions on how to do some of tricks. Guess what I got, that's right the instructions.
