The June Solstice occurs around June 21 each year and marks the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere. During this time, the North Pole is tilted closest to the Sun, resulting in extended daylight hours and warmer temperatures. This event signifies the start of summer for many regions. In contrast, the Southern Hemisphere experiences its shortest day and the beginning of winter. The June Solstice is celebrated in various cultures and is associated with festivals and rituals that honor the Sun, such as the Summer Solstice celebrations in many parts of the world.
