Today is Winter Solstice in the northern hemisphere (see Season of Darkness, Season of Light). This year’s shortest day/longest night is significant to our homestead, both for what happened this last year on the property, and off.
Off property, we visited Ireland earlier this year (see Every Sign a Song Cue) and, as I’ve mentioned before, one of the highlights, for us, was a visit to Brú na Bóinne, the palace of the Boyne, particularly its most famous site, Síd in Broga, also known as Newgrange (see Sacred Space).
