Candle Night - Summer Solstice 2005

Jun 21, 2005 10:02

Candle Night Summer Solstice 2005. Turn out your lights for two hours on the summer solstice, June 21st, eight to ten p.m.

Do something special-Read a book with your child by candlelight. Enjoy a quiet dinner with a special person.
This night can mean many things for many people.
A time to save energy, to think about peace, to think about people in distant lands who share your planet.

Pulling the plug opens the window to a new world.
Awakens as to human freedom and diversity.
It is a process, finding a larger possibility of the human civilization.
By turning off lights for only two hours, we will be all loosely connected.

Let's make a "wave of darkness" spread over the globe together.
On the evening of summer solstice, June 21st, for two hours from 8 to 10 p.m. Turn out your lights, take it slow.

It looks as if the Candle Night movement originated in Japan. I will be participating tonight.

Happy Solstice!
