The Wheel of the Pagan Year

Yule

Also known as the Winter Solstice. It is this day that the Christian religion has turned into “Christmas”. Almost every “Christmas” custom from “Christmas Trees”, to “mistletoe” to “Santa Clause” was originally a Pagan tradition. This day marks the birth of the Sun God, who will bring warmth and light to our world and allow our crops to grow again in the Spring.
