Wimter Solstice

[sirhugs]

sure it's too late for the contest
and sure, summer solstice is a more perfect time to dance naked under the stars
but given that the timing of Christmas is all about counter programming the pagan(Roman?) solstice festival of Saturnalia, there must have been orgies galore...

Set the solstice story in Australia, the land of bikinis at XMas. Key West FLA would work too, with more perversions. I expect many orgies blow out in Key West. They'll have skankier fun around Everglades City, according to the Carl Hiaasen I've read.

Further north, they dance naked around an indoor fireplace or at least a free-standing cast-iron stove glowing red-hot in the center of a large room like an NYC warehouse loft or a rural barn. Or maybe there's an upscale apartment block with a heated indoor pool and space heaters. Most residents are pagans who join the fun, but we also have some civilians (maybe guests) shocked by but drawn into the revelry.

Lured in by the chants to the Mother Goddess and Horned Lord.

Blessed Yule from the resident Wiccan!

According to the BBC, there was a heckuva party at Stonehenge, involving staying up to see the sun rise... imagine the psychedelics consumed, the sleeping in camper vans...

Meanwhile, more off-the-radar fests happen at Woodhenge, Firehenge, Oceanhenge, and Mosshenge. Hmm, I wonder what happens at the Stonehenge replica in Maryhill WA?
