Members of the choir, Shakti Sings, join in song as druids, pagans and revellers gather in the centre of Stonehenge, hoping to see the sun rise 🌅, as they take part in a
#winter ❄️
#solstice 🌄 ceremony at the ancient
#neolithic monument of
#Stonehenge near Amesbury in
#Wiltshire,
#England. A large crowd gathered at the famous historic stone circle, a UNESCO listed ancient monument to celebrate the
#sunrise closest to the
#WinterSolstice, the shortest day of the year. The event at the englishheritage site is claimed to be more important in the pagan calendar than the summer solstice, because it marks the 're-birth' of the Sun for the New Year. | December 22, 2018 | 📷 MattCardy |
