As the darkness deepens, we are reminded that the light will return. The winter solstice is a time to celebrate the light, even in the darkest of times.
As the days grow shorter and the nights grow longer, we are reminded of the cyclical nature of life.
The darkness is a time of rest and rejuvenation, and the light is a time of growth and expansion.
