Winter solstice, Yule, Midwinter, the Feast of Sol Invictus, call it what you will – the longest night of the year is behind us, and from midday on (our time), the days will get longer again. The Sun (or is it the Son?) is victorious, the cycle begins again. Get out your garden planning notebook and the seed catalogs!

It is definitely the Son that brings us light and hope in the time of extreme darkness. Thanks for alluding to it and a Merry Christmas!
