Sol Invictus by Susan Price
Sol Invictus. The Sun Invincible. The Unconquerable Sun. However cold and grey our winters... However dense, depressing and thick the darkness that enfolds us by afternoon... Sol Invictus will return. Today is Yule. The Mid-Winter Feast. Today we celebrate that, however dark, however cold and however long the darkness of each night, each day will now be an eye-blink longer. And brighter. The Earth now turns towards mid-summer. The leaves, the flowers, warm sunshine and long, light midsummer nights will come again. Sol Invictus.
