Here is everything you need to know about the longest day of the year, and how to celebrate it properly (without freezing). The Summer Solstice marks the moment the Sun reaches its southernmost point in the sky. On this day, the Earth’s South Pole is tilted as close to the sun as it will get all year.

Mark your calendar—it’s a great day to play hooky from the holiday shopping rush. Because the Southern Hemisphere solstice overlaps with Christmas, Hanukkah, and New Year’s prep, its pagan roots are often overlooked. But you don’t need to be a druid to enjoy the power of the sun.
