___________________________
The solstices are the times of the year when the Sun reaches its most Southerly or Northern point, either at the Tropic of Capricorn or the Tropic of Cancer. These extremes of movement create the longest and shortest days. Most importantly they are responsible for creating the seasons; one hemisphere of the Earth receives a bit more solar energy each day, while the other half receives a little bit less.
In this lesson you will learn about:

- Midwinter Solstice or Yule
