I used to really look forward to the Solstices (solsticei? solsteiciem?)
When I was in my mid-30's I was living with a woman who was a High Priestess for the local Wiccan coven, (which seemed to be made up of all young women.) On the Solstice (and a couple of other Druidic important dates,) they all used to go down to a small clearing along the nearby lake, make a bonfire, and dance naked around it, chanting prayers to heal Mother Earth. I thought this was a pretty noble thing to do, so didn't mind sitting and watching.
Today I get treated to a loooong day of rain.
