Christmas and the Mistletoe Tradition

Christmas and the Mistletoe Tradition

Have you ever wondered where some of our modern traditions came from? As the Christmas season approaches, I have been doing some research regarding certain holiday-related topics. My findings may surprise even the biggest scrooge!br br Mistletoe has been revered by certain cultures for many, many years. The ancient Celts of Britain felt that Mistletoe held sacred powers of healing, and that it contained the soul of the tree from which it was cut. In the Celtic language, Mistletoe means All Heal.br br The Druids also had an interesting ceremony that included Mistletoe.
