Celestial Solstice
The celestial solstice, a merging of ley energies, is a recurring event during which the barriers between the planes grow thinnest, leading to major historical consequences on multiple occasions.
A celestial solstice recurs on a roughly 20-30-year cycle, but roughly every 100 to 120 years there are particularly powerful solstices called apogee solstices that can shift the ley lines of Eduron and during which truly incredible magical feats can be achieved. Even a "half-solstice" in which fewer astral bodies align creates a spike in magical energies that allows certain rituals to be performed.
During a normal solstice, magical energies are heightened, resulting in the birth or creation of dangerous mutations and aberrations, as well as the appearances of mythological beings.
Within the Fey Realm, echoes of an apogee solstice event make the lights grow brighter and the shadows grow darker, and it is a period of rituals and bacchanalian celebration, full of both joy and terrors.
