GERMANY


Germans love to decorate their houses in various ways at Christmas. Many will have an 'Adventskranz' - a wreath of leaves with four candles. Advent means 'coming', is the 4 week period before Christmas. On each Sunday of Advent, another candle is lit.

MISTLETOE


The mistletoe has long been considered a magical plant. Mistletoe is an aerial parasite that has no roots of its own and lives off the tree that it attaches itself to. Without that tree it would die. It was used in various potions as a universal remedy and fertility drug. It gave strength to the athlete, the hunter, and the swordsman. Norsemen often gave the name "Mistelsteinn" to their swords because of the mistletoe's magical and strengthening effects. This plant is Oklahoma's state flower. In the eighteenth-century English describes mistletoe with a certain magical appeal called a kissing ball. At Christmas time a young lady standing under a ball of mistletoe, brightly trimmed with evergreens, ribbons, and ornaments, cannot refuse to be kissed. Such a kiss could mean deep romance or lasting friendship and goodwill.
