Solstice Morning

[mdlbear]

Good morning! I crashed hard last night and slept a little longer than usual; the sun appears to have returned without my assistance. It always does, fortunately.

I live in what passes for a city , so I still haven't seen the sun above the houses across the street, but there was light behind the ragged high clouds when I stood on the porch to look this morning. The pink is gone now; I think I could see the sun by now, but the light behind the clouds is far too beautiful for me to wish them away.

A merry Yule and a happy Solstice to you and yours, and may this year's sun shine upon you with love, friendship, and happiness.

and to you also the same!

Best wishes to you and your family (for suitably broad definitions of family) also.

The thought of a little more light generally improves my mood in the midst of all the rigorously mandated celebration I otherwise endure this time of year.

Likewise, the sun marker in

has made the transition to the Capricorn segment of the Analemma.

The "Sun's Longitude" figure now stands at 270.17 Degrees, with the threshold of Capricorn being 270 even. It moves about one degree per day.

And a Merry Solstice to you and yours, as well! There are no clouds here today, although that may change by the end of the day. The sun in all it's glory is still there, and it is too bloody bright for this early in the aye-emm.

Still, it would be a horrid thing if it wasn't there at all.

Blessed Solstice! Here's to the turning of the Wheel and the return of the Light! (Even though it's completely overcast here today.)

It's been raining here, but to see water falling from the sky again is such a blessing, I am quite willing to overlook the fact that it's also cold, wet, and miserable! Wishing a peaceful and bright Solstice to all.
