1 quote and a poem about the julleuchter
“It is by now custom in the SS that shortly before celebrating the Jul fest the Reichsfuehrer SS presents his SS-men, who have established a family during the past year, with the Julleuchter. In its glow all SS-men unite in the same hour wherever they live, all part of the SS-community of families, all conscious of this unbreakable community of thought and bearing. With the Julleuchter comes this accompanying letter.” (refering to the award document here) quote was taken from ss germanische leitheft
And here is a poem I found on-line that you may enjoy:
Julleuchter
Shyness and vulnerability affects the small fire
inside the Julleuchter, just so
as if every breath of wind might bring it to extinction.
And yet it exudes warmth and comfort, like a living
or hearth in ancient times.
Always lower the Julkerze.
Every day a little bit,
Every day, the magic
earthen walls of the candlestick
Other, longer shadows
on the wall.
On the last day of autumn
But the tables are turned:
instead of the stump inside
now stands a beautiful new candle
high on the top and
bathes the area in bright luster.
The winter is here.
And with it a change:
the shortest day of the year
is behind us, tonight
is the longest night.
From tomorrow, the darkness gives way
the light, every day a little more,
and we welcome the new vitality of the sun
with this candle.Comment
