Today was the shortest day of the year in the southern hemisphere. Its the Winter Solstice. The Summer Solstice, this year, is in December. Ive been really noticing of late how late the sun is rising and early it is setting. Joys of having been away on workers comp, Ive been missing mornings so much. I know that the Solstice and Equinox (where both night and day are equal times) would play a part in old pagan rituals, unfortunately my knowledge on this topic is extremely lacking. The colours in sunrise this morning were particularly beautiful, even without clouds to beak the light up. The photo really doesnt do it justice. Im sure somebody must have sacrificed something really cute and fluffy for such a beautiful sunrise.
