Christmas ham | Christmas

Friday, July 6th, 2007

A Christmas Ham is a traditional ingredient in the Finnish and Swedish Christmas celebrations.

Before the arrival of Christianity to Scandinavia, a boar, the wild ancestor of the pig, was sacrificed to the god Freyr at the Yule celebrations and eaten (see Blót). This tradition of butchering a pig at Christmas continued after the Christianization and survives as several dishes (sausages and bread dipped in pork fat) of which the Christmas ham is the most central. Also the Germanic people had a similar celebration as did the ancient Romans, who sacrificed a pig to the Roman god Saturn about the same time Christmas is celebrated nowadays. The ham is considered as important part of the holiday setting as the Christmas tree.

Tree topper | Christmas is

Monday, July 2nd, 2007

A tree topper is a decorative star, angel or other item which is placed on the crown of a Christmas tree. The most popular tree topper is the angel, followed by the star. If viewed in a Christian context, the tree topper usually signifies the Christmas Star (Star of Bethlehem) or angelic hosts which proclaimed the news of the birth of Jesus to the world on the eve of his birth. Modern pagan homes celebrate the winter solstice, which falls close to Christmas, by decorating an evergreen tree as a symbol of continuing life, but make an effort to decorate it with non-Christian symbols and often choose tree toppers representing the sun.
