Midsummer

The event is primarily a Celtic fire event, Midsummer representing the center of summer, as well as the shortening of the days on their own gradual goal to winter. Midsummer is usually celebrated on either your 23rd or 24th of June, even though the longest day actually falls on the 21st of 06. The importance of the afternoon to our ancestors can be tracked back thousands of a long time, and many natural stone circles along with other ancient monuments are usually aligned for the sunrise upon Midsummer's Day. One of the most famous alignment is that at Stonehenge, where the sun rises within the heel stone, framed with the giant trilithons about Midsummer morning.
