Candles
These are the crux of the celebration, the best way to form some tactile connection to light and its creation. (Flipping a switch is so unromantic.) You can do ordinary or weird things with these candles: light them and sit around them while you talk to your friends and family, or light them and ceremonially place them in a pool of water and close your eyes and hum the melodies to songs about the sun. Whatever makes you comfortable. [photo]
