❄️DECEMBER 21 WINTER SOLSTICE❄️
The Winter Solstice arrives in quiet stillness, marking the longest night of the year. It is a reminder that even in deep darkness, the light is not gone, it is turning back. This is a time to rest, reflect, and honor the slow, gentle return of the sun ❄️☀️❄️☀️❄️☀️

One of the year’s most spectacular meteor showers peaks this weekend, offering sky gazers a chance to see up to 120 shooting stars per hour. 💫

The Geminids, visible through mid-December, provide one of the most reliable celestial shows annually, with peak viewing this year tonight into Sunday’s predawn hours ✨✨✨ #darkskiesnelson
