Amancara & I spent a brilliant 2 hours or so celebrating the winter solstice, organised by Alternatives, at beautiful St James' Church in Piccadilly this evening! :D What a great evening. I took loadsa photos although I don't know how they'll come out, and I have to wait till I recharge the camera battery before I can see them.. :roll: However rest assured I will post some if there are any worth posting......

In today's paper:

This year's winter solstice will coincide with a full lunar eclipse in a union that has not been seen in 456 years. The reappearance of the celestial eccentricity -- an event that will occur on Tuesday -- holds special significance for spiritualities that tap into the energy of the winter solstice, the shortest day of the year and a time that is associated with the rebirth of the sun. "It's a ritual of transformation from darkness into light," says Nicole Cooper, a high priestess at Toronto's Wiccan Church of Canada. Ms. Cooper said Wiccans also would see great significance in the unique coupling of the masculine energy of the sun and the feminine energy of the moon. The last time the two happened at the same time was in 1554, according to NASA. The eclipse will start just after midnight Tuesday, with the main event starting at 1:30 a.m. and lasting until 5:30 a.m.
