Celebrating light on Lucia day


Today is the Scandinavian Lucia day celebrating the Italian Saint Lucia. She brings light to the darkest day of the winter. Traditionally the winter solstice day was around the 13th of December, even if it nowadays is around the 21st of December. Lucia was protecting against evil and darkness by bringing light. It's a beautiful tradition. Today I might wear a crown with candles when I go to the gym.
