Light in all its forms is widely used in ceremonies and rituals all across the world. For many religions, light carries important symbolic meaning and represents hope, joy and life-giving power. Although the use of light is common to each of the ceremonies regardless of where in the world they take place, the origins themselves and their respective symbolic meanings differ greatly.

The Solar Centre’s latest infographic shown below looks at a selection of ceremonies – from the ancient Greek Lampadedromia ceremony, carried out to honour the Gods, which has now been transformed and incorporated into the Olympic Torch Race, to the well-known Diwali, the Hindu Festival of Lights, and the widely celebrated Guy Fawkes Night in the UK. Have you experienced any of these beautiful ceremonies first-hand? Or if not, which would be at the top of your bucket-list?
