Today's summer #solstice marks the longest day of the year, when the sun reaches its highest point in the sky.
Spiritually, the summer solstice represents a time of renewal, growth, and connection to the natural world.
Both the words “solstice” and “resist” derive from the Latin verb sistere, which means “to stop” or “to stand still.” Interestingly, some acts of resistance by #Indigenous peoples to preserve their traditional ways of life revolve around the solstice.
