Watch has been kept on this, the longest night.
Also - it’s effing COLD OUT! 25 degrees Fahrenheit here (-3.8 Celsius) so after the fire we headed inside for mulled cider and my heated blanket! #yule #WinterSolstice #LongestNight

Today is the #WinterSolstice in the northern half of the planet. It will occur in just over an hour’s time at 09:20Z, marking the start of #Winter, accompanied by the #LongestNight. Meanwhile, the other side of the #Earth is half a year out of phase and will mark the start of #Summer on their #SummerSolstice and the #LongestDay.

“Surely there could be no darker place in the be-wintered world than the interior of Maeshowe. One of the light rays is caught in this stone web of death. Through the long corridor it has found its way; it splashes the far wall of the chamber. The illumination lasts a few minutes, then is quenched.”

It's been a long and weary year for me. Reflecting on it as the sun set to start the longest night of the year, 15.36. Here comes the #solstice2024

Infuse Your Home with Solstice Energy

This year’s Winter Solstice is all about reflection and renewal, and a simmer pot is the perfect ritual to set your intentions.

Ingredients like star anise for clarity and bay leaves for manifestation make this ritual both meaningful and magical.

📝 Ready to learn more? My new blog explains the symbolism behind each ingredient and includes journal prompts for deeper reflection.

#WinterSolstice, #SolsticeMagic, #LongestNight,

❄️ Happy Winter Solstice for the Southern Hemisphere!

🕯️It’s the perfect day to light a fire, enjoy some hot cocoa, and reflect on the beauty of the winter season. How are you embracing the longest night of the year? ☕️

The #JuneSolstice will occur at 2050Z today. So that will be on the 21 June for the majority of the population of the planet. It’s the #LongestDay or #LongestNight of the year depending on your latitude. Roll on #summer or #winter.

On the night of Winter Solstice
When the questions loosened their grip
When Body gave over to Wisdom
And Mind elected freedom
In the flickering candlelight
One Who Sees
Did, finally, actually see
In letting go
She came home
To herself
A newfound, powerful flow
And such peace as she had never known before

Just praying for all the unhoused lives lost over the course of the last year thanks to poor public policy. #LongestNight #LongestNightOfTheYear #Solstice #Solstice2023 #WinterSolstice2023

I've been texting my family group chat a daily countdown to winter #solstice the past few days bc I hate short days & cannot wait for them to start getting longer again!
Happy #Yule! Hope everyone has a magical winter ❄️ or summer 🌞 solstice today! May the sun shine brighter for everyone in the northern hemisphere tomorrow! 😊 Happy Holidays! 🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄 #holidays #celebration #photography #longestNight #winter #winterSolstice
