- The solstice marks the longest night, symbolizing the "death" of the sun's power in winter.
- It represents the end of a cycle, giving way to the rebirth of the sun and longer days to come.
- Many mythologies feature stories of heroes or gods entering the underworld and reemerging on or around the solstice, such as Osiris and Persephone.
Return of light and hope
- As the solstice is the shortest day of the year, the subsequent days represent a miracle of the light's return.
- This symbolizes hope, the potential for new growth, and the promise of warmer, brighter days ahead.
- Ancient traditions often lit fires during celebrations like the Pagan Scandinavian Yule to symbolize the life-giving heat of the returning sun.
Reflection and renewal
- The winter solstice is often a time for introspection and spiritual reflection, as darkness gives way to light.
- It is a period of transition, with many traditions focusing on bringing in the new year or celebrating a new spiritual beginning.
- Some practices involve symbolically "wrapping up" the year, celebrating the present, and looking forward to the future.
