The Summer Solstice, also known as Litha or Midsummer, occurs around June 21st and marks the longest day of the year. It is a time of light, abundance, and the peak of the Sun’s power. The Order of Sen-Taur recognizes this as a sacred time to celebrate the Sun’s full might and the flourishing of life.
Across cultures, the Summer Solstice has been observed for millennia. Ancient sites like Stonehenge align with the Sun at its highest point, and many traditions honor this day as a battle between light and darkness, symbolizing the triumph of the Sun.
The Summer Solstice is a time for reflection, gratitude, and setting intentions. Practitioners meditate on personal growth and spiritual renewal, using the Sun’s heightened energy to fuel their aspirations.
The Solstice reminds us of the interconnectedness of all beings. Ritual dances, especially around bonfires or May Poles, help participants embody the rhythms of life and the energy of the Earth.
As the Sun reaches its peak, the Summer Solstice is a time to celebrate life, embrace light, and honor the cycles of nature. It is a sacred reminder of balance, abundance, and spiritual renewal.
