Christmas: how to celebrate according to your sign

Right arrow

Christmas is fast approaching, and with it its procession of gifts and family celebrations. For Christians, this celebration commemorates the birth of Jesus in a manger. However, nowhere in the scriptures is the date of December 25th mentioned for the birth of Christ, and it is only from the 2nd century that the Church fixed the nativity on this date in order to facilitate the conversion of pagan peoples to Christianity, the latter already having the habit of celebrating this date. According to some etymologists, Christmas comes from two Gallic words Noio Hel which mean « new sun ». Indeed, if we observe the sky every evening at the same time from December 21st, during the longest night of the year, it will seem to us that the Sun has stopped in its course which leads it each day a little more towards the South. Then, from December 25, we will see it resume its path towards the north. It is then that the days gradually begin to lengthen. This phenomenon is called the Winter Solstice (stop of the sun). It is easy to understand the importance of this moment for the ancient peoples who lived mainly from agriculture and who could legitimately wonder, each year, if the sun and summer would return or if the world would remain in darkness and cold. Among the Celts, we find the festival of Alban Arthan where the Maponos or young sun, was released from the tower where he was locked. For the Germans and Scandinavians it was Yule while the Mithraists celebrated there the birth of Mithra, born in a cave and of a virgin (hold it!). Aurelian, the Roman emperor, will also fix the date of December 25 the festival of Sol Invictus, the unconquered sun.

And Santa Claus?

What about Santa Claus? If he was first designed by a famous American soda company in the 19th century, he was largely inspired by the figure of St. Nicholas (Santa Claus) imported to the United States by the Dutch, who was himself inspired by Odin, the king of the Scandinavian gods who also brought gifts to children on that date. Some also see it as a survival of the holly king who, for the Celts, ruled the dark season while the oak king ruled the light season.

VIRGO: Your perfectionism and attention to detail means that you start Christmas preparations and gifts very early so that you are not caught off guard when the time comes.
