Out Of The Dark
Ancient peoples marked the day after Winter Solstice as a celebration of light conquering darkness. It was observed as a time renewal and rebirth as the days would grow longer and the Earth would begin to come alive again. In keeping with of that idea, I thought I would post an image today that attempts to embody the feeling of emerging from an enveloping darkness.
