Thus, Hagal symbolizes energies that originated in the past and continue to influence the present.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eIn ancient times, the solstice ceremony was performed as follows: During a certain period (varying regionally in length) before the winter solstice on December 21st, the candle stub from the previous year (which had to be kept in a special vessel throughout the year) was placed into the lantern. The not-yet-turned sun was thereby symbolized by the light projection of the heart and rune in the room. The light must never go out. On the night of December 21st, the burning candle is placed on the lantern - the sun has turned, as people say, it has gone over itself. The candle then remains on the lantern for a varying period (also regionally), mostly until after the Twelve Nights (January 6th) in the Alpine region. The stub of the last candle remains in that special place to light the next solstice.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eIts form symbolizes the Midnight Mountain. Due to the Migration Period, the custom of placing a small light under the lantern as a symbol of the departing year arose from East Frisia far into Scandinavia. At the solstice, at the time of the returning light, a candle is lit on the lantern, as a symbol of the triumph of light over darkness, but also as a symbol of the eternal cycle of becoming and passing away.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eThe Yule lantern is new and has been manufactured from natural white clay based on original designs.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eThis is NEW GOODS, handcrafted.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eSuitable for 2 cm thick wick candles or tea lights!\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe width of the Yule lantern is about 11-12 cm, the height is about 22 cm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color:#ff0000;\"\u003eVery limited edition.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"nordwelt","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53696583172433,"sku":"67.007-alt-53696583172433","price":74.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0972\/9821\/9345\/files\/67-007_julleuchter_weiss_brauchtum_allach_tradition.jpg?v=1777989422","url":"https:\/\/nordwelt.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/julleuchter-brauchtumsleuchter-sippenleuchter-weie-keramik","provider":"nordwelt","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
