ENGLISH

The winter solstice usually takes place around the 21stor 22ndof December. On very rare occasions it takes place on the 20thor 23rdof December. Several ancient civilizations have designed constructions such as Stonehenge in England or Edzna in southeastern Mexico to be aware of this astronomical moment highlighting the shortest day of the year. There are also natural landmarks that “embrace” the winter solstice such as the Saddle Mountain located in Mexico’s 3rdlargest city, Monterrey where the sun comes out right at the center of the “saddle” during the winter solstice. 

ESPAÑOL

El solsticio de invierno suele suceder el 21 o 22 de diciembre y en muy raras ocasiones cae el 20 o el 23 de diciembre. En algunos lugares del mundo antiguas civilizaciones han diseñado construcciones que marcan este evento astronómico tales como Stonehenge en Inglaterra o Edzná en Campeche, México para señalar el día mas corto del año. También hay lugares naturales que enmarcan este fenómeno tales como el Cerro de la Silla, localizado en la ciudad mexicana de Monterrey, donde el sol sale justo en la parte central de la “silla” de montar, al cual el nombre del famoso cerro hace referencia.

ENGLISH
Last week we experienced in Mexico a total eclipse of the moon. So the “rabbit that lives in the moon” (according to ancient Mayan tales) was gone for a while. Although the eclipse was not seen in Asia, did you know that the Chinese also have a tale about a “rabbit living in the moon”? What an interesting coincidence!

ESPAÑOL
Hace una semana presenciamos en México un espectacular eclipse total de la luna así que el “conejo que vive en la luna” (de acuerdo a los mitos mayas) se desapareció por unos instantes. Aunque el eclipse no fue visto en Asia, los chinos también tienen el mito del “conejo que vive en la luna”. ¡Qué interesante coincidencia!
