The Winter Solstice in 2025 occurs on
Sunday, December 21, at 10:03 AM EST (15:03 UTC), marking the shortest day and longest night in the Northern Hemisphere, signaling the start of astronomical winter and the gradual return of more daylight. This event happens when the Earth’s North Pole is tilted farthest from the Sun, and it’s simultaneously the Summer Solstice for the Southern Hemisphere.

2025 年冬至将于美国东部时间 12 月 21 日星期日上午 10:03（世界标准时间 15:03）到来，标志着北半球白昼最短、黑夜最长的一天，也预示着天文意义上的冬季开始以及白昼时间的逐渐增长。此时，地球北极倾斜至离太阳最远的位置，同时也是南半球的夏至。
But there is a sadness at the the still point. Pack members gone. Life changing. Loss of familiar voices. Old ones going going. Dance and sing. Pause, remember, mourn.
At the still point of the turning world. Neither flesh nor fleshless;
Neither from nor towards; at the still point, there the dance is,
But neither arrest nor movement. And do not call it fixity,
Where past and future are gathered. Neither movement from nor towards,
Neither ascent nor decline. Except for the point, the still point,
There would be no dance, and there is only the dance.–T.S.Eliot
