🌅 Fun fact: Stonehenge, the ancient monument, was ingeniously designed to align with the sun during solstices. On the summer solstice, the sun rises behind the Heel Stone in the north-east, casting its first rays into the center of Stonehenge. Conversely, during the winter solstice, the sun sets to the south-west of the stone circle. This celestial connection can be witnessed at the Winter Solstice celebrations at Stonehenge, set to unfold at sunrise on Friday, December 22, 2023. Happy winter solstice!
