- 1 min read
Litha, the Summer Solstice, marks the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere — in 2026 falling on 21 June at 03:24 BST.
In the Wheel of the Year, Litha represents peak light, abundance and vitality.
But here is the deeper truth:
The solstice is not only celebration. It is reflection.

Litha and the Summer Solstice
Traditionally across the UK, bonfires were lit, herbs gathered, and communities honoured the strength of the sun. Today, you can celebrate Litha by:
• Lighting a golden candle
• Creating a solar crystal grid with Citrine and Sunstone
