Litha / Summer Solstice / Mid-Summer's Eve

Litha / Summer Solstice / Mid-Summer's Eve

In the Wiccan world of Earth cycle appreciation,
there are 8 major holy days/holidays
that are used to celebrate the Earth.

There are 2 Solstices, 2 Equinoxes and 4 cross quarter moments
(times exactly midway between each of the 4 Solstices or Equinoxes.)

The next major Wiccan holy day or Sabbat is the Summer Solstice, named Litha in the Wiccan world. This year we celebrate Litha on June 21st. It is the longest day of the year. The sun is regarded as being at its highest power and influence.

Check out The Chart for a complete calendar list and times of occurances of Solstices, Equinoxes or Cross Quarter events for your part of the world.

For more information about Litha or some of its customs you may email me
or look online for more information.

Blessed Be,
