Winter Solstice December 22, 2011

The winter solstice begins on Thursday, December 22, 2011 at 12:30 am EST. The Sun moves into Capricorn, inspiring us to work hard, be ambitious and get all those last minute christmas tasks completed. This is the shortest day of the year in the northern hemisphere, the longest day in the southern hemisphere. For us in the north, it is a time of going inward and reflecting on our 2011, then meditating to create a plan for a healthy, happy, prosperous 2012.
