This years winter solstice felt very special in Orkney, as we were blessed with clear skies most of the early morning and at dusk, enabling amazing views of the total eclipse of the moon and of the last rays of the setting sun reaching the back wall of the chambered cairn at Maeshowe. Despite heavy lying snow and freezing temperatures an aqua aura was successfully planted in the vicinity of Maeshowe shortly after sunset as part of the global community planting project of these crystals - a truly inspiring day.
