Today, many individuals are disgusted by the growing consumerist trivialization of the Christmas party.
Looking for other types of spiritual expressions, some people gathered to commemorate the Sol Invictus on the day of the winter solstice.
The ancient ritual began with the lighting of the fire, away from shopping centers, near a stream and immersed in a propitiatory nature for the perception of the sacredness of the moment.
The scent of the holy pole blows gently penetrating the air.
Nature seemed suspended.
The crackle of the flames and the sound of a flute accompanied the arrival of the night.
When all the natural lights went out, those present joined hands in a solstice circle.
In silent communion, many prayers rose to heaven, to heal and release, with the hope of reconnecting to the meaning of life.
The perception of the dark and light, of the visible and invisible, of the full and the empty, made sure that in that instant they all connected, known and unknown, in a rebirth feast.
The longest night of the year was over.
