This Friday, Dec 21, at 4:20 PM, we will gather on a hillside in Berkeley, to toast the sunset and encourage the sun to rise again. We will celebrate the sacred, profane and astronomical. You may wish to bring a bell to ring or a brief song or poem to share. Please bring a reusable mug for hot cider, and feel free to bring your own favorite libation or a snack to share. Remember to dress warmly – we meet outside in all weather.
Location: the Sunstones II sculpture on the back lawn at the Lawrence Hall of Science in Berkeley (you can walk through the museum). Time: a half hour before sunset. For more information, call Cynthia Cudaback at 510-808-4075. Remember, axial tilt is the reason for the season!
