Here is the point and on point of Amrit Vela and it's connection to change Sadhana

Question: what if you live in a place that 4am is NOT within 2 hours to sunrise?
I used to live Fairbanks, Alaska. On the shortest day of the year
the sun rose at 10:30 am and set at 1:30 (AND and the temp hovers around
-45 to -56 degrees during a cold snap). The different guidelines we
have about the Amrit Vela beginning "2 1/2 hours before sunrise" or
"during the last quarter of the night" just can't apply no matter how
much we wish they did. The part about the angle between sun and earth
being 60 degrees at the right time would have to apply in this case and
that happens at 4 am and again at 4 pm. The energy of the psyche is
tuned to this cycle even though the ratio between daylight and night are
completely whacked. I remember the energy of the darkness getting very
intense around mid November and not letting up one bit until mid-January
with the tangible sense that the sunlight was really on the return. It's
a great opportunity to tune in real deep to your inner space and
interrupt the old patterns. It is best to keep your self moving and deal
with things on one's own terms. I used to hunt or ski alot in order to
keep myself "on point" and relating to the elements directly. It's kinda
homeopathic in it's over all effect.

Side point: this sunlight thing is so relative. Many years ago I
remember driving south from Fairbanks and arriving in Seattle in late
Feb. and "drinking" the sunlight like a man who hadn't had a drop of
water in a week. It was like an intravenous injection to me.
