Midsummer

The festivity is primarily any Celtic fire event, midsummer representing the midst of summer, and the shortening of the days on their own gradual goal to winter months. Midsummer is traditionally celebrated about either the particular 23rd or 24th regarding June, although longest day actually is catagorized on the Twenty-first of July. The importance of the morning to our forebears can be monitored back thousands of many years, and many stone circles and other ancient monuments are usually aligned to the sunrise on Midsummer's Day. Essentially the most famous positioning is that in Stonehenge, where the sun rises on the heel rock, framed by the giant trilithons about Midsummer morning.
