The UK Winter Solstice<\/p><\/div>\n
What is the Winter Solstice?<\/strong><\/h2>\nThe Winter Solstice<\/strong> will mark a transition period where the days begin getting longer<\/strong> in the Northern Hemisphere<\/strong> and shorter<\/strong> in the Southern Hemisphere<\/strong>. The evening of the Winter Solstice will be the longest of the year for the Northern Hemisphere. This is because Earth’s poles\u00a0create a maximum tilt away from the Sun in the Northern Hemisphere and maximum tilt toward the Sun in the Southern Hemisphere.<\/p>\nAdditionally, the\u00a0Winter Solstice<\/strong>\u00a0is our shortest day of the year<\/strong>: actually, when there is the shortest amount of time between sunrise and sunset. This typically occurs between December 21st – 22nd. This was originally a time when people celebrated the transitioning from winter into spring. In parts of Northern Europe, you had Yule, whereas in the Eastern parts of Europe, it is called\u00a0Koleda<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/h2>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/blog-origin.psychictoday.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/winter-snow-1024x576.jpg\")

<\/h2>\nAstronomical Seasons<\/h2>\n
The astronomical\u00a0seasons occur as the Earth\u2019s axis is on a tilt from the sun, so different parts of the world receive more solar energy than others.\u00a0The seasons are based on the Earth\u2019s journey around the sun, with the four quarters of the orbit determining our four seasons. This, in turn, creates the seasons<\/p>\n
