Sunset today was just about half an hour ago -- 16:16. There's still a bit of light in the sky, a sign of things to come.
Diwali, Christmas, Hanukkah – so many autumn and winterfests are based in celebrating the Light.
The one I love best is Solstice. How remarkable that someone noticed this as the day the light would start coming back.
One of the first times I realized the power of the Solstice was in a hokey old movie, Journey to the Center of the Earth. That was the summer solstice, still. It mattered where the sun was.
Today has been a turning point on a couple of other fronts too. Looking forward to the Light coming back for all of us.
