The summer equinox in 2023 holds significance not only for those who observe traditional religious practices, but also for pagans who celebrate this celestial event. The summer solstice, also known as midsummer or Litha, is a time when the sun is at its highest point in the sky and the day is longest. In pagan traditions, it is a time to honor the power of the sun and the earth's abundance. This particular equinox is noteworthy as it marks a significant shift in energy, symbolizing the peak of the solar cycle. Pagans believe that this time of year is especially auspicious for performing rituals, connecting with nature, and celebrating the beauty and vitality of the natural world. It is a time to embrace the light and warmth that the sun provides, while also acknowledging the balance between light and dark.

Sailfin gives undertides such a gorgeous silhouette, I love the vibrant range of colors the tert has and the way is pops against the duller saturated. In most cases these presets are one-click magic, but please remember that all presets work differently on every image and because every image is different shot in different light etc you will likely need to tweak the edit exposure white balance after the preset is applied.

Pumpkin Pie preset is one of my New Halloween presets. It gives you all those warm cozy vibes. This preset enhances your oranges without making them overwhelmingly bright, kinda like a nice warm pumpkin pie shade. This preset will also sway your yellow tones to be more orange to fit the fall vibe. It gives off the perfect golden hour fall overlay.

I was really disappointed with "Summer Equinox 2023 Pagan". The storyline was incredibly confusing and disjointed. It felt like there were so many different plotlines and none of them were fully developed or explored. The characters were also extremely flat and lacked depth. I couldn't connect with any of them and found myself not caring about what happened to them. Overall, I found the book to be a waste of time and would not recommend it to others.
