This week we are diving into the Witch’s Sabbat, Litha also known as Midsummer. This year in the Western Hemisphere is on Thursday, June 20th, and Saturday, December, 21st in the Southern Hemisphere. Litha marks the Summer Solstice as well as being the first day of Summer. We will be diving into some history, traditions, and ideas in which you could introduce celebrating Litha in your practice.
