Stonehenge
Our own celestial calendar. Mid-March, and the sun comes right through at about 1920. That small post-it note has been there since last year at this time.
I'm not home enough to notice the uncommon light spots at various times of day.
Every once in a while I will notice that the light is in a nifty place, but it is normally as I am in the midst of doing something else and so haven't the attention required to photograph it.
Interesting idea. I am always somehow slightly chilled at the idea of celestial calendars. Looked at the temple of Queen Hatshepsut in Egypt - okay its been rebuilt but how many thousand years? That REALLY gave me the creeps. As I say, I don't quite know why.

I have a Stonehenge too - the sun comes in through a key hole at the spring equinox.

Interesting!
Yeehaw! time to bask in a sunbeam like a cat.
RR,
Oooo, that's cool!
Phil,
Try a post-it, date/time.
Jenny,
Oh, I can see that, the celestial brought down to human scale, gods taking human form, that idea is reasonable to feel creeped out over.
Isabelle,
I stuck that post-it up last year on a whim, left it up, and have been waiting for the return of the sunbeam ever since.
Nimble,
Cat has been basking, indeed he has.
