Christmas trees adorned with handmade, natural ornaments echo ancient traditions that long predate modern holidays. For many pagans, Yule is a sacred time marking the Winter Solstice—the rebirth of the sun and the return of longer days. Evergreens symbolize life and endurance through the dark winter, while decorations made from pinecones, dried fruit, herbs, and wood honor the earth’s gifts and the cycle of nature. Yule celebrations focus on warmth, reflection, and renewal, blending beauty, intention, and reverence for the natural world.
