Life without sunlight in the arctic circle during winter's 'Polar Night' for 2 months

[@ricp]

I can only imagine how majestic it must feel to see the sun again after having missed it for 60 days... that must be a very touching experience - thanks for sharing!

[@Solardiysystems]

It was! I remember getting goosebumps all over when I saw that first sunrise 🌄

[@SpaceTime773]

@Jack S yes

[@ArJayDM]

Goto Seattle and you can experience this

[@SpaceTime773]

@@ArJayDM no not in Seattle. You can experience that only in regions above the arctic circle. Therefore Alaska or Canada would be the right choice.

[@ArJayDM]

@arcturus514 it's called a joke, genius. Seattle is known to be cloudy and rainy all the time, so the people there do not see the sun alot.

[@RunnerGunner2020]

I can feel this in my heart. I really want to experience this

[@katturkatturkattur1100]

[@prestonaseltine261]

Me too !!! Always have dreamed of living in Alaska ..literally on my bucket list

[@pawewojtas88]

Living thousands kilometers south in Poland. Recently (december) I had opportunity to work night shifts 3 weeks straight, 7-8 hours of sleep daily. Going into third week got a bit depressing. Seeing direct sunlight for the first time after these weeks was sooo odd, but made me realise how drained of energy i was. Do not recommend. :/

[@NickolayEl]

As hard as life in the Arctic circle is, which I believe it is, it seems to offer something most of us "modern" humans have lost - a direct link to nature, its perils and beauty. I'm a winter person, my skin doesn't like the sun, I'd give most of what I have for a life like that - several months in night and dusk, time to contemplate and acquire humility before the forces that determine our fate, and man's best friends being the vital life line our pioneer ancestors in the North have recognized them to be.

[@policeofficersandy8057]

@@kittywang5158 it's not pitch black during the Polar Night ...it looks more like a Solar eclipse . It makes things difficult depending on where you live . Barrow is surrounded by the Arctic Ocean . That means you can't leave without an Airplane , at least in the Winter when Ships can't make it through the Arctic Ocean. It's pretty rare that Airplanes taking of during this Time . So like I said ...At the Moment I can't even order from Amazon . We just got one Grocery store in Town .

We need to learn to appreciate the darkness, because the darkness exists only to lead us to the light. The dark colors and forces and the light colors and forces co-exist as in Yin and Yang. Yin and Yang are interdependent forces that co-exist to allow room for peace and harmony in the natural world.

I have to admit I'd find that hard. I could deal with anywhere north up to Arctic circle, but to not to see the sun for that amount of time would be a challenge. I live just over 50N, so still 8 hours of daylight in late December to be had.

[@いちごくん-l6d]

whatever. This is not really a complete darkness. Its at least several hours of lovely twilight. The blue twilight in particular is absolutely beautiful. Besides in summer you get 24 hrs of daylight so these sissies can zip it. Also, the snow makes the landscape quite bright actually even without a direct sunlight In Svalbard - that makes more sense - that is a true darkness (almost not even any nautical twilight at all) for 2 months.

[@Thor.Jorgensen]

Depression is not caused by your mood swings or your attitude. You can't prevent it if you have a vitamin deficiency, a vitamin that the sun provides. Your diet is also very important for providing you with the required vitamins. Furthermore, exercise helps distribute vitamins to your body and to your brain, which helps prevent or overcome depression. We need to stop viewing depression as a mood and instead see it as an illness that requires treatment.

This is beautiful and stunning, however not sure I would want a full throttle experience of living it. I’ve heard populations living in these regions that go weeks or months without sun struggle with problems like depression and suicide. I’m assuming there’s something about no sunlight that really screws with people?

[@ladydawn1973Eternity]

I am an example, yes,, and vegan too so it's not cheap here, but I am not native here in Norway and had sun most time of the year where i am from-southern Europe.. I couldn't go abroad(not vaccinated) to get the sun dose and without it I feel terribly weak and moody.. It is pretty yes, but God made us to love the sun aint it:P

[@TheRockyCrowe]

@@ladydawn1973Eternity may I ask why you have chosen to be vegan in this climate? Or has there always been some form of veganism in these areas? From what I’ve read many people in colder regions have rely on meat/fish heavy diets for most of their nutrition. I assume you are importing food? You’re right we need that sun! Sorry to Herat you were stuck spending nearly an entire year without it 😬 our psychology is definitely tied to it.

[@ladydawn1973Eternity]

@@TheRockyCrowe Figured it is healthy. I am NOT activist don't wanna change the world I just feel better being vegan, but I was hippie in early 90's and in the Maditerraneans AND LOVED the sun but now have D3 deficiency. dr' perscriped sun,, With S*A*D I have, i really can't love the noethern skies..

so even without the sun there is still some light based on the scene where a lady rides with dogs

[@いちごくん-l6d]

there is plenty of twilight. the sun is just below the horizon in most parts of Northern Scandinavia so it’s actually not bad at all. As the sun culminates around midday this gives a total of at least 4-6 hours of “useable” light. Also, the snow is very reflective so in fact it looks brighter than here in north of England where we get a thick gray cloud with little to no snow at all making the days darker despite having a sunrise.

Thank you Caloy! Personally I showered a little less than in warmer places, but we had showers, and I'm sure most people used them. Where I stayed was well insulated so showering was generally not a problem. And there was a hot tub outside in one of the guest cabins. I was in that on Christmas day when it was around -15ºc outside. It was fun getting out and running around in the snow with clouds of steam pouring off me!

[@ladydawn1973Eternity]

I had 16 days with sun last year 2021 so far. No, it is not pretty when your body aches and you get depressed because lack of sun. It is nice video- but without sun humans cannot live.. I go abroad each year to feel energy again to southern parts becuse if I don't(like this year) it's blues so often..
