Horoscopes November 2008
Christmas is Coming!
The mid December solstice marks the beginning of winter in the Northern
Hemisphere and summer in the Southern Hemisphere. The Winter Solstice
occurs on December 21, 2008 and marks the shortest day - and the
longest night! - of the year. In the Northern Hemisphere, the winter
solstice has been responsible for many symbols, ancient myths and
religious beliefs.
In ancient Rome, the winter solstice was celebrated at the feast of
Saturnalia honouring Saturn, the God of Agriculture, while in Pagan
Britain, the end of December where huge Yule logs were burned in honour
of the sun. The word Yule itself means “wheel,” the wheel is a pagan
symbol for the sun. Mistletoe was considered a sacred plant, and the
custom of kissing under the mistletoe began as a fertility ritual.
Although the name Yule originated from Germanic and Norse paganism,
elements of the celebration itself are of modern origin with the birth
of Jesus. Today, a similar response to winter doldrums is the
celebration of Christmas by many cultures around the world complete
with fairy lights, huge feasts & family get-togethers.
To many pre-Christian culture, however, December was thought of as the
most dreaded time of year, when the lack of heat and light and a
limited supply of food was perilous for their survival. The cold was
stark and the darkness seemed eternal. As the old saying goes, it truly
is darkest before the dawn. After December 21, the light slowly begins
its inevitable return, and the days begin to grow blessedly longer,
flicking the switch to ON for the inevitable countdown to the spring
equinox in February and the onset of Spring. So we are nearly half way
there folks! I will be celebrating the Winter Solstice and Yule tide
Holidays for many reasons but mainly because that weekend marks our
11th Wedding Anniversary. So I'm wishing a Merry Christmas to you all
and happy anniversary to my other half.
