We have selected 20 phrases to welcome the summer of 2023 pronounced by prominent people from the world of art, culture and science in relation to the joy of living these days.
WHY WELCOME SUMMER 2023
Every June 23, the festival of San Juan or the night of San Juan is celebrated in many parts of Spain, a tradition that more or less coincides with the shortest night of the year, which this year 2022 has taken place on June 21 (the day lasted about 15 hours and 4 minutes, while night only lasted 6 hours and 6 minutes).
Thus, the celebration of the Night of San Juan, although it has a religious origin, now serves to celebrate the June solstice. During this solstice the Sun is at the furthest point from Earth’s equator. Therefore, in the northern hemisphere the sun’s rays hit much more than in the southern hemisphere. For this reason, in the northern hemisphere the celebration of the June solstice serves to welcome summer. In the southern hemisphere, on the contrary, the June solstice ushers in winter.
