Wiki:

A solstice is an astronomical event that happens twice each year when the Sun's apparent position in the sky reaches its northernmost or southernmost extremes. The name is derived from the Latin sol (sun) and sistere (to stand still), because at the solstices, the Sun stands still in declination; that is, the apparent movement of the Sun's path north or south comes to a stop before reversing direction. The term solstice can also be used in a broader sense, as the date (day) when this occurs.

Example:

"Our battle should take place on the autumn solstice|On the day before summer solstice the Nibelungen arrived at Attilla's court.|We must get to the alien antenna before the summer solstice!|We'll take them to the solstice celebration.|"Our battle should take place on the autumn solstice|It's months to the solstice.|The last child, at summer solstice.|Those clouds will cover Nabaan until just before Winter Solstice.|You're Summer Solstice, the porn star.
