The Sun enters the sign of Capricorn as her rays shine directly at their southern extreme for the year. This is the shortest day and the longest night of the Northern Hemisphere. In the Southern Hemisphere they celebrate the Summer Solstice at this time. The great cosmic wheel of the year, the fiery hub of the universe, the symbolic Wheel of Time, is acknowledged here. Jul or Yule means wheel in Norwegian.

Autumn Equinox is the doorway to winter. Summer is over and a new phase will begin. We can share with each other what we have gained and completed during the summer and make our plans for the coming winter. From now on the days will get noticeably shorter and colder. The Sun’s power is waning fast. This is the time of ripening fruits, nuts, mushrooms and berries. It is a busy time if you want to lay in stores for the winter.
