Bringing Light and Joy to Your Home: Pagan Yule Tree Topper Ideas

By admin

In pagan traditions, the yule tree topper holds a special significance. It is not just a decorative accessory, but rather a symbol of spiritual beliefs and connections to nature. Paganism is an umbrella term that encompasses a variety of earth-based religions, each with its own unique customs and rituals. During the winter solstice, pagans celebrate the return of light and celebrate the rebirth of the sun. The use of a yule tree, usually an evergreen, is a prominent feature in the festivities. The yule tree, also known as a Christmas tree in modern times, symbolizes the cycle of life and the eternal spirit.

Would that be that Christmas originated as a celebration of the sun returning after the shortest day of the year? Because that is what the celebration early Christians tagged Jesus onto actually was.

Take a beer can, cut the bottom off, stick the can over the top branch and call it a topper.

We use a star, and it in no way disturbs my atheist sensibilities. Do Christians get their panties in a wad because they are participating in a pagan ritual when they put up their tree? Nope, they say "fuck it, its Christmas" and drive on, pagan tree and all.

I've taken to making my own. This year is a combination of red hydrangeas, poinsettias, gold glitter eucalyptus, and other gold glitter-covered plants.

Look on Pinterest for ideas.

First place I lived after high school we used a Jack Daniels bottle. Get a short string of lights and stick them in the bottle with the plugs left out. True beauty

Last year my wife bought a very nice victorian era Christmas Angle as a tree topper. It's about the size of a 12 inch G.I. Joe. About 2 days after Christmas, while visiting, one of my adult kids asks "Why is she holding an MG42?"

My wife never noticed.

It's going up again this year.

Dr. Who angle maybe?

Nothing says Christmas like a shiney spent .50 BMG case, OP

(20 mm works too if the top stalk is too big)

One year, my wife's Dickens Christmas village, on the coffee table and RIGHT in front of the TV, had a 16" tall Cthulhu in the middle of it. which she didn't notice for about two weeks.

It's actually a bit more complicated than that. SOME early Christians felt that when God created the earth (in Genesis) He did it on the first day of spring and decided Jesus had the same birthday.. At the time they thought it was March 25. Then they decided that perhaps he was conceived on March 25. ADD nine months and what do you know?

You're being silly holding us to rules that you yourself won't follow because the book has n authority. Actually, it says not to do it as the pagans do. We don't. We do it for a different reason.

Ordered this a month and a half ago, to mount on a pole for a nice home decoration, and it arrived today. Then, a couple hours later, I suddenly remembered this thread, and it hit me that with a reasonably sturdy tree, this would make an absolutely bitchin' Yule tree topper.

Got a nice Freki and Geri motif going on.

Reviews for "Sacred Animals: Pagan Yule Tree Toppers Inspired by Nature Spirits"

- John - 1 star
I was excited to find a pagan yule tree topper that I thought would add a unique touch to my holiday decorations. However, when it arrived, I was disappointed with the quality. The materials felt cheap and flimsy, and it didn't stay securely on top of my tree. I ended up having to tie it on with a piece of string just to keep it in place. Overall, I was very dissatisfied with this product.
- Sarah - 2 stars
I had high hopes for this pagan yule tree topper, but unfortunately, it didn't meet my expectations. While the design was nice and the size was adequate, the colors were not as vibrant as they appeared in the pictures, which was disappointing. Additionally, the topper was not as sturdy as I had hoped, and it kept falling off the tree. The packaging was also subpar, as it arrived slightly damaged. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this product.
- Emily - 3 stars
I was intrigued by the idea of a pagan yule tree topper, as I wanted to incorporate my beliefs into my holiday décor. However, I found this particular topper to be quite underwhelming. The design was nice, but the material used felt cheap and plastic-like. The topper also didn't fit well on my tree and kept sliding off. Although it was a unique concept, I was disappointed with the execution of this product.
