    Julleuchter Jultradition, do you follow?

    Hi.

    Does anyone follow the classic rite during jul, when using their Julleucthers?
    If not, do you have any own rite that you have during jul? Now I dont mean rite as in a strange way, Im more curious about your setup etcetera.

    This information I found while searching the net, which applies to me very much.

    "when the Julleuchter was used during the holiday of Yule (what is now known as The 12 Days of Christmas), twelve candles are used. One is used each night symbolizing the twelve months, until the 31 of December when the "July Moon shines." On that night a thirteenth candle is used for the new coming month of January. The candles always burn below but on the last night, the candle is again transferred upward- this is the sun, which is spilled in order to return to the earth from the gloom of another peace." (Germanien magazine, December 1936)
