The longest day. The Sun enters Cancer as it reaches its peak in the sky. Litha, the summer solstice, is the zenith of the light — and the beginning of its return. A day of paradox: celebrate the sun at its height knowing the wheel begins to turn back. Fire, water, flowers, and feasting.

Midsummer. The sun stands still at its peak. In folk tradition, Midsummer's Eve is a time of great magical power — herbs gathered at this hour are strongest, the veil is thin, and the fae are active. Burn bonfires, gather St. John's Wort, and stay up to watch the sunrise.
