Litha/Summer Solstice

Also called Mid-Summer, this holiday is one of our most lighthearted holidays. The holiday falls on or about June 20th. The atmosphere for this holiday is light and magical. Children are very involved in the festivities held at Litha.

At this time, the waxing sun reaches its zenith. This becomes the longest night of the year. We celebrate the earth being awash with the sun's energy. We celebrate the God and Goddess, who are now pregnant.

Sun flowers are hung over altars. There is much bounty in the form of flowers. We celebrate solar powers.

Children leave offerings of tarts, cookies and mini cakes in hopes of luring fairies out of hiding. The activity of fireflies is observed. Ancients believed that their magic was related to the Hermits lantern.

In May, the Divine Marriage of the God and Goddess was celebrated. It was believed that for all mortals, May was an unlucky month to be married in. June was considered much luckier. The symbolism of the white Bridal gown came to represent the purity of the Goddess. This is a lunar marriage month-and the moon of June is called a Meade Moon. It also is called a 'Honey Moon'. 

The tradition of wedding rings comes from Pagan times, where it was considered that jewelry was magical and the most magical was necklaces and rings-due to the shape. The ring was placed on the third finger of the left hand because it was believed that an artery ran from the finger to the heart. By circling that finger, it would protect love.

During this celebration the God has reached his physical peak. As the sun begins to wane and the days become shorter, the God will begin to weaken.
