Ha! I’ll bet you thought solstice was on December 21st! But it’s actually today, December 22nd. Every couple of years, with the leap years and all, the solstice happens in the early hours of December 22nd.

Meg, I love that you posted about the solstice. It happened here at 5.30 am so I set my alarm to welcome the new year and now it's 6 and I can't get back to sleep. We have a big pagan celebration planned for tonight for Yule. Happy Yule :-)

ReplyDeleteI look forward to that gradual, but oh so perceptible light, as the days grow longer.
Happy Solstice my preppy pagan friend.
