The celebration of "Yule," (the Winter Solistice) is just another one of those days where pagans make with the merry and give thanks for things. Oh, kind of like Christmas would have been if done correctly. I don't have more than a humorous irritation at the early Christians who boosted all of our holidays and made them their own. It was really quite sensible from a "takeover" standpoint. The early pagans most likely rocked out totally with the whole "Happy Birthday, cool dude" aspect of the whole thing. Stars, angels and talking animals appeal to our appreciation of magick. It wasn't until later, when the Church of the Holy Mastercard took over, that things got totally out of hand. I send Yule gifts to one daughter and her husband and some friends; Christmas gifts to two daughters and some friends; Hannukah gifts to my sister and her family and some friends...basically, my family celebrates everything. In my none-too-humble opinion, if a religion doesn't afford as many opportunities as possible to throw a party, give thanks and in general love life, it has no business existing. |
