Tha an samhradh a' tighinn le theine — summer arrives carrying its fire.
This is solstice week. The hinge of the year, the longest light before the slow tilt back toward dark. The mother of the earth tips her face full into the sun now.
Mark it.

The ancient builders of Stonehenge placed the giant stones with such precision that each year on the summer solstice, you can see pictures of them all over social media.

A cusp. The exact point of transition between two states. Not one thing, not the other, the moment of change itself. No way to inhabit it. A threshold.

Happy Solstice.
