21 of Desember. The Longest Night of the Year
The winter solstice marks the shortest day and the longest night of the year. The sun appears at its lowest point under the horizon. The days begin to grow longer and the nights shorter.

Full noon. The days begin to grow.
This is the time to create your own Northern Light

Hønseby:
Sometimes the Northern Lights all come out together, dancing across the sky in orange, purple, green and sunset red. At other times, they are curtains of green or a twister of ethereal light. During the Viking Age, the Northern Lights were the armour of the Valkyrie warrior virgins, shedding a strange flickering light. Some also believe they are the fiery breath of a dragon flashing across the sky. In olden days, Scandinavian fishermen believed that the Northern Lights were the reflections of herring in the Northern Sea. And according to Japanese legend, it is good luck to conceive a child under the Northern Lights. Many young children make wishes and believe they can catch the Northern Lights by waving to the sky.
