The winter solstice, hiemal solstice or hibernal solstice, also known as midwinter, occurs when one of the Earth's poles has its maximum tilt away from the Sun. It happens twice yearly, once in each hemisphere.The word solstice comes from the Latin words of “sol” meaning sun and “sistere” meaning to stand still.
