Today people associate Yule with the "Yule Log," a piece of wood decorated with evergreen, holly and candles.
In Newgrange, County Louth, there is an ancient tomb with stones covered with anticent Celtic artwork. Once a year, at the Winter Solstice, the tomb fills with light and the beautiful spirals are illuminated. Newgrange predates both Stonehenge and the ancient Pyramids of Egypt.
Leaving a Candle in the Window was a common tradition on Christmas Eve in Ireland. At its heart it was a symbol of hospitality signaling any stranger that they were welcome to the house and that none would be turned away.
Carol: A dance or a song of praise and joy.
