Longest night.

 December 21 — Winter Solstice 



Tonight holds the longest darkness of the year.

The Sun rests at its lowest arc, and night stretches deeper than ever before.


But this is not an ending.

It’s a turning point.


From this moment on, daylight quietly begins its return — minute by minute, day by day.

Across civilizations, this night has symbolized pause, reflection, and renewal — a reminder that even the longest night gives way to light.

The sun aligns perfectly with the ancient stones to mark the Winter Solstice. For thousands of years, this moment has signaled the end of the longest night and the rebirth of the sun. A breathtaking start to the new solar cycle as we welcome the gradual return of longer days.
