For many Indigenous cultures, the Winter Solstice (on December 21) is a time to honour the cycles of the Earth and the wisdom of ancestors. ❄️ 🌞 On this day the sun is at its lowest point in the sky, resulting in the shortest day and the longest night of the year in the Northern Hemisphere. 📚 It’s also a time for storytelling, connection and celebrating the return of the light. How are you embracing this season of renewal? #WinterSolstice
