If i can go all metaphysical and esoteric on you for a moment, i think the idea of the winter solstice, where the sun reaches and turns around from its most northerly declination is a time of low energy and the beginning of new, thus the frenzy of enthusiasm to mark it, 'sympathetic magic" at its clearest displayed by the majority of peoples at one time of the Year or another. An instinctual need, In the northern hemisphere, to mark the birth and-or return of the sun or son. But its actually visible epiphany is not celebrated till spring, and the summer equinox is special full blown kiss of fire. The glory of existence in full bloom, at the peak of its yearly cycle. To be celebrated as such.
