The World
To celebrate the achievements of our ancestors, who watched and mastered the movements of the stars and planets, and gave us all our knowledge, and who calculated the solar year and figured out the shortest and longest days and the equinoxes, happy winter solstice to all.
The winter solstice was, and still is, THE most important date in the year for it signals the end of the dark days. Ahead is a brighter future of planting crops and the coming season of fertility of the land and animals.
It’s a real shame this important festival was almost erased by the new monotheistic religion that arose nearly two thousand years ago. The date of December 25th has nothing to do with Jesus of Nazareth. It marks the first day when the sun starts to rise in the sky once again, after seemingly staying static on the horizon for three days. This is the resurrection, which occurs three days after the solstice. The crucifixion cross also represents the star system of the southern cross, which is the star sign directly visible in the sky where the sun sits for three days. Hence why the ‘son’ of God’ dies on the ‘cross’, and after three days is resurrected. ‘God’ has always been the sun. In all ancient cultures the sun was the most revered entity, and thus Jesus is the ‘son (sun) of God’.
I am sure I will offend many when I say that Jesus Christ never existed. His attributes are clearly taken from both Osiris, from ancient Egypt, and Krishna, from ancient and modern Hinduism in India. They were both born of a virgin on 25th December, both died and were resurrected, etc, etc.
The story is always the same – the symbolism is the dying sun that is resurrected or reborn. Whether you are a Christian or a Muslim or anything else, you are always following a pagan religion and worshipping the pagan life-giver – the sun – the son of God.
Everyone should celebrate the solstice!
