The summer solstice is something that has been with us from the start of our history. Over the years customs have changed, however they have not changed as much as others. One would often go out and engage in rituals linked to the sun, and those rituals would include bits of nature so folk would feel closer to the gods and the land around them.
Doing this would make folk feel closer to the land and it was also a day of celebrating something that only happens once each year in each hemisphere, the longest day of the year. Folk would celebrate this day as it was rare and thought to be special since the sun was at the highest point that it would be.
