Thousands of New Agers and neo-pagans danced and whooped in delight Monday as a bright early morning sun rose above the ancient stone circle Stonehenge, marking the summer solstice. About 20,000 people crowded the prehistoric site on Salisbury Plain, southern England, to see the sunrise following an annual all-night party.
In the southern hemisphere, the winter solistice coincided with the celebration of the Aymara New Year in Tiwanaku, Bolivia, on Monday. The Aymara people, one of the largest indigenous groups in the region, celebrated their new year number 5,518 on the winter solstice, which marked the start of the new agricultural cycle.
