The March of the Setting Sun to the Summer Solstice Edward Quinto From where I left off in my last article on the migration of the setting sun to the winter solstice, the setting sun has reached its most southerly point, the winter solstice from my viewpoint high in the Sun Residences last Dec. 22, 2014. After that date, the sun has reversed direction and has been moving north, to my right from my observation window post. The golden sun will reach it most northern point on 22 June 2015, the day of the summer solstice. The summer solstice is the longest day and the shortest night in the northern hemisphere. After that date, the sun will once again reverse direction and begin its southerly march to reach its most southern point on 22 December 2015, the winter solstice. This photo was taken from my western window observation post. Take note of the PLDT tower (right) for it will be my reference point. Watch the setting sun approach it as it moves north (to the left), passes through it and ultimately ventures out of it as the sun moves on to its northerly trek. The sun from the photo above is still located to the left of the PLDT Tower. The sun, on its daily course, is now moving towards the PLDT Tower (to the right)
