“Winter Solstice 2009 arrives at 12:47 PM today according to U.S. Naval Observatory data. The Winter Solstice 2009 is also the shortest day of the year. With a heavy blanket of snow on the ground, it seems clear that winter is here!
The Winter Solstice 2009 shortest day of the year is because the earth’s axial tilt is the farthest from the sun today. We have the least amount of daylight and the longest night on Monday, December 21, 2009.
The Winter Solstice 2009 is also referred to as “Yule”. For centuries, the Winter Solstice has been a celebration of harvest, wonder and magic. The shortest day of the year was always a time to gather and share. Centuries from the beginning of Winter Solstice, we celebrate the joy of Christmas.” via news.gather
