Winter Solstice: The Beginning Of The End Of Darkness
It’s Throwback Thursday, so how about another repost? This from December 21, 2019:
For never-resting time leads summer on
To hideous winter and confounds him there;
Sap cheque’d with frost and lusty leaves quite gone,
Beauty o’ersnow’d and bareness every where.
Shakespeare, Sonnet 5Originally posted by Lili, wherever you may find her
The winter solstice occurs in the Northern Hemisphere when the sun is directly over the Tropic of Capricorn, or 23.5° south latitude; this year that happens at 11:19 PM EST. It is the shortest day of the year so rise early, although it will still be dark, and have your coffee and breakfast before the sun comes up. You cannot afford to squander even a minute of what has become precious daylight.
Where you live determines the exact amount of daylight you will get today. Sunrise in Detroit is at 7:58 AM, Sunset at 5:03 PM giving us 9 hours, 5 minutes of daylight. I am luckier than some but not as lucky as others.
Which of course is true about nearly every aspect of life; learning to accept and appreciate that fact is one of life’s important lessons.
Each day grows a bit longer now, so we should celebrate the solstice as it is the beginning of the end of darkness. So get out there and enjoy whatever light you are fortunate enough to get.
O, that that earth, which kept the world in awe,
Should patch a wall to expel the winter flaw!
Hamlet, Act 5, Scene 1
Snow at Louveciennes, Alfred Sisley
