Julafton .. the Eve of Yule .. is what is celebrated here in Sweden and it's what I celebrate too since my parents come from the other side of the Baltic sea even though own personal preference is the winter Solstice on 21st December. Christ - mas I was told in School comes from " the birth of Christ " mas meaning birth.
In actual fact wasn't the baby Jesus born in the spring ? He is supposed to be Pisces, isn't he ? How things have got muddled up over the years. The stories have become distorted.
I'm all for the awakening of so called Christ Consciousness and the Miracle of birth, The Gift of Love , the True Spirit of Christmas / Yuletide. Joy and Peace are something to celebrate. Come to think of it , if Jesus was Pices, born in March he would have to be conceived in the summer .. and conceived in March if he was born in December ...
Ah well ... it's snowed a little... there's a thin layer of white stuff covering the rooftops. I've just spent half an hour ironing a white linen table cloth , sticking candles in the candlelabra, placing quartz crtystals around its foot and nearby a vase of gorgeous white lilies. The Spirit íf YuleTide is here- I'm going to peel potatoes and then get into my glad rags and set the table for dinner. The Prof and his Lady are arriving around 5pm. I hope they are not too full from lunch at JOhanna's father's 
They have Christmas dinner tomorrow with her mum. I'll be have a wonderful lazy day of no cooking and leftovers tomorrow 
Bliss. It's all good. TTFN ... enjoy your day xxx
