What The Summer Solstice On June 20 Means If You're An Aquarius
The summer solstice is right around the corner, and it's the perfect time to celebrate life by being with those you love, and doing the things that make you happy (via Allure). The 2021 summer solstice will occur on June 20 and will mark the longest day of the year and the unofficial first day of summer in the Northern Hemisphere, per The Old Farmer's Almanac. The sun will appear at its highest point in the sky during the event, leading to warmer weather and later sunsets.
Since the solstice falls on a Sunday, it could be the perfect time to kick off the summer with some special activities such as strawberry picking, as the solstice usually falls during the time of year that coincides with the ripening of strawberries in the United States. Other traditions include lighting a bonfire to bring good luck in honor of Midsummer's Eve, which is also celebrated around the time of the solstice. Of course, each zodiac sign may also want a fresh start during this time, and for many, including Aquarius, it could be time to make some life changes.
