Thousands of yoga practitioners flock to New York Times Square to celebrate the summer equinox and over twenty years of all-day yoga events at the world’s crossroads on Thursday, June 20, 2024.

Thousands of yoga practitioners flock to New York Times Square to celebrate the summer equinox and over twenty years of all-day yoga events at the world's crossroads on Thursday, June 20, 2024. The current heat wave makes it feel like summer for weeks, but astronomical summer begins with the solstice at 4:51 P.M. today, June 20, 2024. when the Sun is directly above the Tropic of Cancer, it's also known as the longest day of the year because it has the most daylight. While the summer solstice can fall between June 20 and 22, it last occurred on June 20, in 1796, when George Washington was president. As a bonus, this year's summer solstice happens before a full Moon. June's Strawberry Full Moon rises at 9:08 P.M. tonight. It will also be the lowest full Moon of the year, making it appear extra full.
