Midsummer, the Summer Solstice (circa June 21), also known as Litha, arrives when the powers of Nature reach their highest point. The Earth is awash in the fertility of the Goddess and God.

In the past, bonfires were leapt to encourage fertility, purification, health and love.  The fire once again represents the Sun, feted on this time of the longest daylight hours.

Midsummer is a classic time for magick of all kinds.
