festive lights

While the custom of decoration a Christmas tree is a relatively recent phenomenon, the celebration of Christmas is old. 

The festival at Christmas time was known in the most ancient Mysteries of all religions everywhere and has always been celebrated. It is not merely an outer sun festival, but one that leads man to a divination of the sources of existence. 

Signs & Symbols of the Christmas Festival

It was celebrated annually by the highest initiates in the Mysteries at the time of year - when the sun's force was weakest and bestowed the least warmth upon the earth. 

An ever-flowing river of love weaves through all generations. At times we may need to dive deep beneath to find it. Trust that when all else fades and is gone - love remains.
