Natalis solis invictus, finally, and in the northern hemisphere, the days will get longer.

It's been a very sunny late fall, so I can't complain, but I'm looking forward to longer days. Getting home from work at near dark makes me want to hibernate.

Happy #soltice everyone.

This weekend I celebrate midsummer in the workplace. Enjoying the sun, the plants and my plans for this place. One of the inspirations for my workplace is De Werkplaats (The Workplace) from Kees Boeke. A school where craftmanship, art, dancing, writing, gardening, animal care and sports where part of the curriculum.

As reality becomes more elusive - the summer solstice reminds one of the beauty and magnificence of the natural world. How will you express your gratitude for the earth's bounty? What do you do to protect and preserve them?

De nuit, sous un ciel étoilé, la veille du Nouvel An, des renards phosphorescents, accompagnés de mystérieuse flammeroles, se rassemblent sous un grand arbre...

Today after morning coffee (with cinnamon and vanilla sugar) I got an impulse to tilt the cup in various ways and as result the shape formed on wall of cup.
I just looked at it, and these thoughts popped in my head:
* the running man
* a lighting (may be by Perun?)
* a huge root of a tree (The Great Oak or Yggdrasil?).
It was an interesting thing to do, and it was special for me to do something like this first time ever exactly on Winter #Soltice
Happy winter (summer) #soltice, everyone. Took place early this morning at 03:27 UTC. https://www.timeanddate.com/calendar/winter-solstice.html
