As a religious holiday, the winter solstice is also known as Yule, and celebration
of this day predates Christianity.
While Druids, Romans, and Norsemen all celebrated the sacred nature of the solstice centuries ago, many modern Pagans and Wiccans consider
this an important religious holiday.
A yule greeting to you all:
"The light is reborn this winter solstice, may your heart lift with the joy of new beginnings and nature's blessings."
