Christmas isn't a newer version of it. They just used the traditions because it was a clever way to make people convert (after killing us of course ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sity Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 Yay! Happy anything to everyone! Im gonna spend this week around christmas tree anyway surrounded by icons of Jesus and friends - my granma's painting those. Celebrating Joulu (= christmas). Now inspired of this I want to go outside with a "Yule Goat" to make a "wheel of sun" and burn it celebrating the sun. Oh and I'd love to make some Yule beer too - celebrate the pagan yule and northern roots. Wheel of sun Yule Goat (of straw) Few centuries ago we had no crappy christmas glitter so when we put a new clean layer of straw on the floor in home, we also made the Yule decoration out of the straws. Carved of wood with a knife "Himmeli" (out of straws) I only found this: It has also been suggested that Jól is derived from the Old-Nordic word for wheel: Hjól, the theory being that the wheel of the year has come full circle, and this is just the tip of the iceberg. There have been more attempts at explanations than one can shake a stick at. Certainly the exact meaning of the original word is something we shall never know. Have a happy, relaxing wheel, pagan EnFa and everyone else!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
