Midsummer

The event is primarily a new Celtic fire event, midsummer representing the midst of summer, as well as the shortening with the days on the gradual goal to winter season. Midsummer is usually celebrated on either the actual 23rd or perhaps 24th regarding June, even though the longest morning actually comes on the 21st of 06. The importance of the afternoon to our ancestors can be tracked back thousands of many years, and many natural stone circles and other ancient monuments are usually aligned to the sunrise upon Midsummer's Day. Essentially the most famous alignment is that at Stonehenge, where the sunshine rises over the heel rock, framed through the giant trilithons on Midsummer morning.
