Ok this is a really amazing symbol, I have put some thought into this symbol as it is my saturn symbol!
The custom of decorating an evergreen with lights and ornaments is seen to be Christian, but its roots lie deep in the Pagan past. In ancient times, the venerated tree was the oak, though ashes and yews were substituted in later ancient days, and the representation of the tree as life among the desolation of winter shifted to the evergreen needles of the pine. Evergreens are a natural symbol of rebirth and life particularly in the northern winter whiteness. The Christmas tree is such a popular symbol of the 'winter holiday' that it has been adopted by people of many faiths in many countries.
This symbol refers to sharing rituals, customs and tradition, the unity of people and spirit at this time of year. Here we have the hope of good will, celebrations and loving intentions.
In all the ways people celebrate ‘mid-winter’, we see how this time of the year is also re-born in different cultures echoes its original cyclic meaning, rebirth in light and darkness, safety and giving.
