Today is/was the shortest day of the year, which is the beginning of Yule. Which was the old namefor Christmas. Christmas owes a lot to Yuletide, in its imagery particularly. Santa Claus is in many ways a softer Odin Allfather. Anyway, I try celebrate Christmas as I would Yuletide centuries ago. So happy Yule everyone.
