WW – Yule aka Winter Solstice 2016

The last stop in the Wheel of the Year (Yule aka Winter Solstice 2016) is almost here! On December 21st, 2016 at 5:44 am EST, the Holly King defeats the Oak King, and the Sun God is reborn! In other words, since it’s the shortest day of the year, from here on out the amount of time the sun is in the sky will get longer each day.

Here is the graphic I created for the occasion, using a picture I took of the Solstice sunrise last year. Bright Yule/Solstice blessings to all!
