Midsummer is called Juhannus here and seems like in so many places there are similar traditions, bonfires, flowers and magic in the air.
One of the most known midsummer ”spells” for unmarried women hoping to find a husband is to gather seven different wild flowers, put them under the pillow and then you’ll see your future hubby in your dreams.
Hope you had a magical night. I knew of that too cannot recall if I mentioned or should edit it in. It is also recurrent. It is a time of fertility of earth. Thanks so much for sharing. Did you celebrate?
We are celebrating all weekend here, and we got so lucky with the weather, it’s super sunny and warm. It’s not unheard of to snow or be sub zero during mid summer, and heavy rain is basically normal so this is a total treat.
It is now milder here but we underwent such sn awful heatwave last week half my province set ablaze in wild firessi grateful for the moodier weather this week
Aww I really want to be in “La Noche de San Juan”!! I love Spain! Amazing shots, pretty powerful, and I love the fact that it seems to be from a fairytale landscape!
Thank you. when I lived in Canary Islands I used to go to the beach at night and people would have bornfires but now I am more inclined to a magical time alone in the woods
Thank you for the explanation. I'm in Spain too and at the moment I can hear fireworks everywhere. Sadly I cannot take good pictures, it's a bit far. But let's celebrate summer!
Yes, that is the reason. I am not a big fanof fireworks cos they scare animald bir indeed it is a day to celebrate summer welcome in many ways Enjoy my country 🌞

We celebrated the last day of spring as the longest day of the year. From now on, each day would be slightly shorter than the previous day.
