The December Solstice, also known as the winter solstice in the Northern Hemisphere, is an astronomical event that marks the day when the North Pole is tilted furthest away from the Sun. In Mexico, this typically occurs on December 21st or 22nd.
The pre-Columbian cultures of Mexico, such as the Maya and Aztec, were advanced in astronomy and attached significant importance to celestial events like solstices and equinoxes. They often aligned their pyramids and temples to these events, which played a crucial role in their agricultural and ceremonial calendars.
The December Solstice remains a time of reflection and festivity in Mexico, blending historical traditions with contemporary cultural practices.
