Melsy I cannot help it I kept thinking of you as Milsytletoe - or rather mistletoe!
Also I posted a link below and have pasted some info for you Melsy about the Yule Solstice. Although Snugs or another wiccan enlightened type might have a more brief overview of things.
Yule, also referred to as the Yuletide, Winter Solstice and Christmas is the shortest day of the year and the longest night. This is usually around December 20th or 21st. With the shortest day, Yule marks the time when the days begin to grow longer and the nights shorter. Yule begins on 'Mother Night' and ends twelve days later, thus the origin of the Twelve Days of Christmas. On this day the Holly King, who represents the death aspect of the God, is overcome by the Oak King, who embodies the rebirth of the God, also referred to as the Divine Child.
Love, family togetherness and accomplishments of the past year are celebrated.
This is also a good time to reflect on your achievements of the last year and what you desire to achieve in the coming year.
Yule is a solar festival, celebrated by fire and the use of the Yule log. The seasons colors are red and green, originating from Pagan celebrations of this time of year. Red represents the females menstrual blood, while the color green represents the fertility of the coming growing season. Fancy breads, cookies and holly wreathes are also a part of the original Pagan (Witch) tradition. Food is prepared for the after dinner Yule celebration when the tree is lighted and the Yule log is burned. A portion of the Yule log is saved to be used in next years lighting of the Yule log. This piece of the yule log is kept throughout the year to protect the home.
