In ancient times each solstice marked the MIDDLE OF each season- as in the summer solstice the sun slows its turning to a near stop and then begin to turn in the opposite direction at the solstice - it then begins to WANE - to prepare for Winter. So clearly from an astronomical Perspective the ancients had it RIGHT - each Solstice is the MIDDLE Of that season and NOT the beginning- how can it be - truly absurd to see alleged "experts" call it the beginning of summer when clearly it is NOT.
