Merry Yuletide!!
Please Stop by Bridge of Dreams & Nightmares Palace,
bodan.fastpalaces.com:9998, for a Celebration of the Winter Solstice!!
The shortest day of the year, it is the celebration & rebirth of the Sun,
which is the promise of spring and life, even on this - the darkest day.
Therefore, some consider this the New Year.
The burning of the log is to give the Sun strength.
Mumming (plays) such as "St. George", are a Pagan survival, representing the
rebirth of the God.
Wassailing is also a Pagan custom.
The Roman festival of the Solstice was Saturnalia, which lasted from December
17th to the 24th.
So come on by and Celebrate!
KellyJean, Your Hostess, will be there this Tue, Wed & Thurs after 6pm PST
till around 3am! So, come on by to chat, play games, tour, or to just have some
friendly palace fun!
Merry Yule!
Huggs From KellyJean
