Thus, Hagall symbolizes the energies that originated in the past and continue to have an effect in the present.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n \u003cdiv\u003eIn ancient times, the solstice ceremony was performed as follows: During a certain period (of varying lengths regionally) before the winter solstice on December 21st, the stub of the previous year's candle (which had to be kept in a special container throughout the year) was placed in the candlestick. The sun, which had not yet turned over, was symbolized by the projection of light from a heart and a rune in the room. The light must never go out. On the night of December 21st, the burning candle was placed on the candlestick – the sun had turned over, had, as the saying goes, \"passed over.\" The candle then remained on the candlestick for a varying length of time (also regionally), in the Alpine region usually until after the Twelve Days of Christmas (January 6th). The stub of the last candle remained in that special place to illuminate the next solstice.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n \u003cdiv\u003eIts shape symbolizes the Midnight Mountain. Through the migrations of peoples, the custom of placing a small light beneath the candelabra as a symbol of the departing year spread from East Frisia far into Scandinavia. At the solstice, the time of the returning light, a candle is lit on the candelabra as a symbol of the victory of light over darkness, but also as a symbol of the eternal cycle of birth and death.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Made from dark brown natural clay.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e The Yule candlestick is new and was made from natural dark brown clay according to original designs.\u003cbr\u003e These are brand new, handmade items.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e Width: approx. 11-12 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e Height: approx. 22 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cspan style=\"color:#ff0000;\"\u003eVery limited edition.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"nordwelt","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52229429002577,"sku":"67.003-b-alt-52229429002577","price":0.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/nordwelt-versand.de\/en\/products\/julleuchter-turmleuchter-brauchtumsleuchter-braune-keramik-2","provider":"nordwelt","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
