An Ancient Human Festival Christmas Card
This Christmas card celebrates the true spirit of the season – an ancient human ritual that predates the major religions of Europe today.
For as long as people have lived in the Northern Hemisphere, we have turned a bitter and barren season into a festival of light, food, friendship, and gift-giving. The pagans called it Yule, but you may know it by one of many names. Its traditions persist today – from the firs we bring indoors to remind ourselves of nature, to the lights we hang about our homes, to the roasted vegetables, wines, and ales we enjoy with family and friends. This original ‘Christmas’ story – one of ordinary people coming together to celebrate their love for one another – is thousands of years older than the nativity fable, and is an important part of our shared human heritage.
This card has a white border with a Humanists UK logo at the top.
