Evergreen wreaths were brought into Roman homes during the Saturnalia celebrations (a festival for the god Saturn).<\/p>\n<p>Non-Roman peoples of the time \u2013 barbarians to Roman sophisticates \u2013 also brought branches of evergreen trees indoors at this time of year. The evergreen plant was a symbol of fertility and enduring growth. Beliefs of course varied across different cultures and times. For some it symbolised eternal life. Because of its triangular shape it eventually came to represent the Holy Trinity for Christians.<\/p>\n<p>Decoration of the Christmas Tree as we know it in modern times first began in earnest in sixteenth century Germany. Trees were decorated with coloured paper, apples, wafers, tinsel as well as sweetmeats and other foods. It has been suggested that candles first appeared when the Protestant reformer Martin Luther hung them from an evergreen tree. The fairy lights are the electrical descendent of these candles, and, happily, less of a fire hazard..<\/p>\n<p>Over time traditions spread throughout Europe and the New World, initially through multinational Royal families and other noble castes.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Artificial or Real? <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10296\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10296\" style=\"width: 614px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-10296\" src=\"https:\/\/cassandravoices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/slowdeath-300x201.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"614\" height=\"411\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10296\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Clearfelling of sitka plantations near Connemara National Park.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Artificial trees are an increasingly popular option for those who don\u2019t relish hoovering up needles and disposing of the heavy load of a real one.

At Christmas time many churches incorporate nativity scenes near to the altar. This typically involves Mary, Joseph, the baby Jesus in a manger, assorted farm animals and the three wise men hovering outside with their gifts. The nativity scene is also a theme for school plays coming up to the Christmas holiday.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10299\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10299\" style=\"width: 624px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-10299\" src=\"https:\/\/cassandravoices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/NativitySceneBarcelona-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"624\" height=\"468\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10299\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Outdoor nativity scene of life-sized figurines in Barcelona (2009).<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The story comes from the New Testament, specifically, the gospels of Luke and Matthew, but how are Mary and Jesus depicted in other religions?<\/p>\n<p>In <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/cassandravoices.com\/history\/historys-dead-hand-on-the-middle-east\/\">Islam<\/a><\/span>, Mary(Maryam) is the only woman mentioned in the Qur\u2019an. She is an honoured figure. The story is essentially the same: Mary becomes pregnant through the will of God \u2013 a divine conception \u2013 \u00a0and gives birth to Jesus. However, other parts of the story differ.<\/p>\n<p>A palm tree is mentioned in the Qur\u2019an, as well as a voice urging her<\/p>\n<p><em>Grieve not! for thy Lord hath provided a rivulet beneath thee; And shake towards thyself the trunk of the palm-tree: It will let fall fresh ripe dates upon thee.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>There is also an account of the baby Jesus prophesising from his cradle of his being brought to a temple. It is also agreed that she remains a virgin throughout her life. She is referred to as the daughter of Imran and the sister of Aaron, but is also associated with a range of other titles.<\/p>\n<p>In Islam, Jesus\u2019s story is similar to the Biblical tale: he is born of Mary (<em>\u012as\u0101 ibn Maryam<\/em>: \u2018son of Mary\u2019), performs miracles and is seen as a prophet of God\/Allah, who has been sent to guide the Children of Israel. Jesus is followed by disciples, and rejected by the Jewish establishment. Eventually he is raised to heaven. However, unlike in Christianity Jesus isn\u2019t crucified, and nor does the Qur\u2019an refer to him as the son of God, or God incarnate.<\/p>\n<p>As regards Judaism, Mary does not appear by name in the Talmud, and doesn\u2019t have an exalted status as in other religions.

The dessert include mince pies and so-called Christmas cake.<\/p>\n<p>The Christmas meal reflects how the U.K. was once a global empire with many dominions. It is not clear exactly when the tradition for all ingredients of the meal began. The turkey first appeared in the U.K. in the seventeenth century under King Henry VIII. However, it wasn\u2019t until the twentieth century that it took over from goose as the dominant dish for carnivores. As the nursery rhyme puts it:<\/p>\n<p><em>Christmas is coming, the geese are getting fat<br \/>\nPlease put a penny in the old man&#8217;s hat<br \/>\nIf you haven&#8217;t got a penny, a ha&#8217;penny will do<br \/>\nIf you haven&#8217;t got a ha&#8217;penny, then God bless you!<\/em><\/p>\n<p>One unpleasant-sounding ritual that grew up around goose was in response to the tuberculosis or \u2018consumption\u2019 circulating widely in Ireland until the 1950s. According to one account:<\/p>\n<p><em>When Christmas time came you\u2019d put on the goose. Goose was cooked then for Christmas dinner.

Thus, it might be an idea to avoid stocking up as if World War III was about to commence, and make a charitable donation instead.<\/p>\n<p>The way in which we give presents could also definitely do with a makeover. I shudder to think of the scale of unwanted gifts that will be discarded, along with reams of wrapping paper, and cards that will be consigned to the bin. Let\u2019s try to recycle wrapping paper, make our own cards, and only buys those that include a charitable donation; reusable gift bags and donating unwanted toys to charities are other worthwhile ideas.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Presents from Santa and Parents?!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>That a child should receive a gift from <em>both<\/em> Santa and their parents (which could easily mean another two presents) is a remarkable feat of marketing that increases costs during an already expensive season.
