In the Northern Hemisphere, summer solstice (about June 21) is the time of the sun's maximum elevation and, thus, has the longest period of sunlight; winter solstice (about Dec. 21) is the time of the sun's minimum elevation and, thus, has the shortest period of sunlight.

The winter solstice is a special time of the year. In the Northern Hemisphere, due to the tilt of the Earth, we experience the longest night and shortest day of the year. The winter solstice has been celebrated for centuries as a time of renewal and hope, symbolizing the gradual return of longer days and increased sunlight. Metaphorically, this is the time to call in the light. It’s the most powerful time of year to set your intentions in motion. Do you want to be more organized than ever before? In this post, I’ll share my top tips on how to use the universal energies of the solstice to achieve your organizing goals. https://lnkd.in/gK7WKQkw

#escolanorthway #ntyglobalcommunicators #becomeaglobalcommunicator #wintersolstice2024 The winter solstice, also called the hibernal solstice, occurs when either of Earth's poles reaches its maximum tilt away from the Sun. This happens twice yearly, once in each hemisphere (Northern and Southern). For that hemisphere, the winter solstice is the day with the shortest period of daylight and longest night of the year, and when the Sun is at its lowest daily maximum elevation in the sky. Each polar region experiences continuous darkness or twilight around its winter solstice. The opposite event is the summer solstice. Source: Wikipedia

The power of the Winter Solstice 🌙 Tonight marks the longest night, and shortest day, of the year. As we move through it, let's honour the darkness. We often shy away from darkness, we fear the unknown and focus on the danger that may live within it. Instead, perhaps we should reframe our thoughts on darkness. It's a time for introspection, renewal, and the quiet power of growth. The Winter Solstice is a meaningful time to set intentions. It gives us time to reflect before the dawn arrives and we can embrace the return of light and the promise of new beginnings. Once we have marked this moment, the days begin to get longer, and we slowly but surely make our way back to the light. Will you be taking part in some reflective practice tonight? #WinterSolstice #Solstice

My wife Narrated a dream, that changed my perception of human resilience. . She said: "I dreamt of a place nearby a huge water dam. It was a serene, tranquil place. The depth and calmness of water was giving me a sense of ease. However, out of sudden, the dam busted and it drowned every home and human that come in the way. "IN THE WAY." She continued: "I found myself in a cottage at the hilltop. Where a horse tried to get me out, I couldn't understand why. Maybe the horse was telling me to do not hide and face what humans have done to the Planet." She then contemplated in her dream that the water just drowned that came in its way. That is the problem, that we are coming in the way. Our buildings, assets, civilizations, are all coming in the way of Nature. It has been the law of nature that it always conquers. Water will find its way, fire will find its fuel. But, humans, why they become so miserable under a natural circumstance? The answer could be, because we come in the way. When she woke up in the morning, she said that in the name of economic development, civilization, ease, and technological advancement, we (humans) have disturbed the natural cycle of water, that is the essence of all life on the planet. I couldn't disagree with her. I couldn't argue. What she saw in her dream will happen near future. #degrowth #nature #climateresilience #dontharmnature
