DAY 3958 December 21st Winter/Summer Solstice
"Fire, needed to light the dark days of winter, has traditionally been part of winter solstice celebrations. The modern-day Burning of Clocks festival in the seaside town of Brighton took up that notion for its yearly solstice parade, bonfire and fire show. People wearing costumes representing clocks and the passage of time march to the beach with lanterns made of wood and paper. There, the lanterns are burned in a huge bonfire, symbolizing the wishes, hopes and fears that will be passed into the flames." ~ Reader's Digest
