Winter Solstice: Shortest Day, Longest Night
Update: 2025-12-21
Description
Today, December 21st, marks the winter solstice in the Northern Hemisphere, the shortest day and longest night of the year. The sun takes its lowest path, giving us about nine hours of daylight. This occurs due to Earths tilt, which leans our half of the planet farthest away from the suns rays. Folks in the Southern Hemisphere celebrate the start of summer. People have marked this day for centuries with festivals and fires to chase away the dark. As daylight stretches longer each day, its the perfect time to embrace a cozy wind-down and recharge for the lengthening days ahead. Checkout Solipillow.com
