The weary sun hath made a golden set,
And by the bright track of his fiery car
Gives token of a goodly day to-morrow.
(Richard III.)
Halo.
When the sun is in his house (in a halo or circle) it will rain soon. (Zuñi Indians.)
A solar halo indicates bad weather.
A halo around the sun indicates the approach of a storm, within three days, from the side which is the more brilliant.
If there be a ring or halo around the sun in bad weather, expect fine weather soon.
A bright circle around the sun denotes a storm, and cooler weather.
