osituksia
osituksia refers to a Finnish practice, typically observed during the summer solstice celebrations. It involves a group of people, usually young adults, gathering in a secluded natural setting, such as a forest clearing or by a lake. The core of the tradition is a ritualistic bath, often taken in a natural body of water like a lake or river. This bath is symbolic, believed to cleanse and rejuvenate individuals, preparing them for the coming year.
The participants might engage in singing, storytelling, and sharing food and drink as part of the gathering.
