Year-round Festivals Series 47 - Christmas - 6 Christmas Symbols and what they mean Part 2 The Nutcracker🌰 According to German folklore, the Nutcracker is seen as the gatekeeper who brings luck to the family. They represent strength and power to protect the family. Around 1865, German woodworkers began selling nutcrackers for the first time, based on a story from a children's picture book. In 1892, a Russian composer adapted the story into the world-famous ballet The Nutcracker. As the ballet was set on Christmas Eve, the hero of the story, the Nutcracker, came to life. The product was quickly associated with Christmas symbols. Christmas Bells 🔔 In ancient times, when people didn't wear clocks or read calendars, bells were rung to call villagers and townspeople to worship in churches. Doves 🕊️ In Christianity, the dove symbolises deliverance and God's forgiveness. It is also a symbol of the Holy Spirit, which comes from the Bible. Forgiveness and peace are also the spirit of Christmas, so the dove is also the symbol of Christmas. Poinsettia🌺 In the 17th century, the Franciscan priests in Taxco first used the shrub in the Nativity procession. Poinsettia was thus honoured as the flower of the Holy Night. Red and green 💚❤️ Red and green are the theme colours of Christmas: red represents the blood of Jesus Christ, and green represents the leaves of the evergreen tree, which symbolises eternal life. Christmas snow globe 🔮 Because crystal ball toys are made to capture the most beautiful moments, during Christmas we often see crystal ball snow scenes of the birth of a baby Jesus and Santa Claus delivering presents on a snow deer. #YearroundFestivalSeries #Christmas2023 #Nutcracker #Poinsettia _______ ✍🏼 Write + Create ◢ Elva Lai FB& IG: thisiselva_art Authorised for re-posting.

6 Christmas Symbols and what they mean Christmas Trees There is a touching and popular story about the emergence of the Christmas tree, inspired by an artist's prints: One late evening, the German Reformer Martin Luther was walking in the forest near his home. As he looked up, he saw stars twinkling in the branches of a cedar tree. Inspired, he cut down a small fir tree, erected it in his house, and placed a lit candle between the branches. Starting in Germany, the Christmas tree became an important symbol of Christmas in Europe and America. Christmas Star ⭐️ The star on the Christmas tree is known as the Star of Bethlehem, symbolising the fact that in the Bible the Three Wise Men of the East were led by a new star in the sky to Jesus Christ. Christmas Wreath 🏵️ The evergreen wreath became a symbol of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ and his ultimate victory over death, thus representing eternal life. Red-Nosed Reindeer🔴 Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer is teased and ridiculed by the other reindeer because of his rare glowing red nose. One Christmas Eve, when Santa Claus is caught in a blizzard while delivering presents, the red-nosed reindeer's glowing nose serves as a guide for Santa to deliver the presents. Christmas Robins The tradition began in Victorian times, when postmen of the Royal Mail wore bright red uniforms and delivered these cards at Christmas. Artists painted red robins on Christmas cards instead of postmen delivering letters. Candy Cane🍫 In 1670 a German choir leader commissioned a candy shop to make sweets for the children in their church to keep them quiet. The rod symbolises the story of Jesus Christ as a shepherd. The interesting red and white hook shape has also become a popular Christmas symbol. #YearroundFestivalSeries #Christmas2023 #Christmasdecoration #ChristmasRobins _______ ✍🏼 Write + Create ◢ Elva Lai FB: Light House Studio IG: thisiselva_art Authorised for re-posting.

Year-round Festivals Series 45 - Christmas Eve - Let's set up the Christmas tree! In most European and American countries, Christmas Eve, 24 December, is one of the most important celebrations of the Christmas season. Little angels, red bows, lit candles, golden stars, and twinkling little light bulbs fill the Christmas tree. Christmas Eve is traditionally the day to set up the Christmas tree, but with the early start of Christmas activities, Christmas trees are already being set up in the United States after Thanksgiving. Modern Christmas trees originated in Central Europe, particularly in Estonia, Germany and Latvia. It was during the early Renaissance in Europe. It is said that the Protestant reformer Martin Luther was the first to light a candle on an evergreen tree. Nowadays, Christmas trees are made of plastic for environmental reasons, and the materials used to decorate them are the inspiration of many designers and artists. The variety of Christmas trees today is overwhelming. When a Christmas tree is lit up in a city, it is a sign that the city's Christmas celebrations are about to begin! "Silent Night, Holy Night" The name of the Chinese holiday, Christmas Eve, originated from a very popular traditional Christmas carol called "Silent Night". The song was written in German by Joseph Mohr and composed by Franz Xaver Gruber, the headmaster of an Austrian primary school. The song has been translated into 44 languages and is one of the most popular Christmas songs. It is the most popular Christmas song, and people sing it naturally, even without musical accompaniment. The song was first performed on 24 December 1818 at the local church of St. Nicholas in Oppendorf, Austria. For two thousand years, people have celebrated Christmas to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. However, the Bible has never recorded the day on which Jesus Christ was born, the only thing that is certain is that He was born at night. In the first chapter of the Gospel of Matth
