The winter solstice marks the official start of tum’huytl, when the sun appears at its farthest southern point over Earth and is lowest in the Northern Hemisphere sky.

Tum’huytl is the season of ceremony, when Coast Salish people would return to their winter villages and to the longhouse, to share stories, teachings and history around the fires.

We wish for you a time of peace, reflection, and learning, and continued connection to everything around you, seen and unseen.
