Christmas is a marketing event with a lot of phony sentiment and

I tend to ignore Christmas. The solstice is another matter however. The
turning around of the sun lies deep in the ancestral memory. The
evergreens are a promise that the earth will again become green.

The vernal equinox, which symbolism the Christians stole, is similar.
