The Summer Solstice, also known as Midsummer and Litha, has been celebrated by various cultures all around the world for millennia. The longest day and the shortest night of the year is a celebration of the sun. In the Northern hemisphere everything is green and growing as we await a fruitful harvest.
Wishing everyone a joyful and magickal Summer Solstice!

And a happy Summer Solstice to you! It seems summer arrived early for us as the temps have been summer-like for several weeks. Husband and I will be celebrating the sun this evening with champagne. Cheers!

Summer arrived here with sweltering heat and humidity. It’s almost as if the Good Lord flipped a switch. We also have an overabundance of mosquitos due to the high amounts of rain that fell almost daily over the past two months.
Looking forward to the autumn equinox. ๐
