The Ritual of the Winter Solstice was held at Damjl, with over 130 guests present from Italy and various parts of the world: France, England, Germany, Austria, Norway, Croatia, Canada, America and Japan. The day was sunny and clear, though quite cold, with temperatures reaching -11 degrees Centigrade (12 degrees Fahrenheit). The ritual was held at the main circle for rituals at Milte, with snow cover on the ground and the small lake nearby completely frozen.
