And thus do you fight yourself all year long. Live rightly, or righteously. When it comes to the year, live according to the natural year. Think about it. We think of Summer as the time of maximum light.
Winter is the time of minimum light.
If there are four seasons, each season will last about three months. Then Winter will be the season around the Winter Solstice. The most winterish time will be the Solstice itself, the maximum-point and midpoint of the Winter season. Winter will be a three-month span whose midpoint is the Winter Solstice. For people living in the Nothern Hemisphere, the Winter season will therefore begin when the Sun reaches 15 degrees of the sign Scorpio.
