Have you ever wondered why there’s a tradition to kiss someone beneath a twig of Mistletoe? 🎄❤️🌿😘
One of the earlier stories of this plant relates to the ancient times of Celtic Druids, who valued Mistletoe for its ability to bloom in the winter. The Mistletoe shrub would still flourish with its green leaves while the other trees were bare; to them, this represented everlasting life.
The Druids would remove Mistletoe from Oaks, which were considered sacred trees, with a golden sickle in a ceremony on the 6th day after the new moon. Mistletoe was valued as a remedy that ensured fertility, which might be the origin of the romantic tradition of kissing beneath the Mistletoe that has formed over the year.
Another story of Mistletoe comes to us from Norse mythology. F***g, the Goddess of Love, had a son, Baldur. Because he was prophesied to die, F***g secured an oath from all of the animals and plants that they would not harm him. Unfortunately, she forgot to consult with Mistletoe.
Loki, the God of Mischief, used an arrow made from the Mistletoe to kill Baldur. In one variation of the story, Baldur was resurrected from the dead. In celebration, F***g made Mistletoe into a symbol of love and gave all those who passed beneath it a kiss.💋
Even now, kissing underneath the Mistletoe is a popular tradition in many European countries and North America, and carries the promise of marriage, happiness, and long life. In the Middle Ages, there was a custom where one would pluck a berry beneath the Mistletoe for each kiss taken and finish once all the berries were gone. ❤️🌿🎄🌿❤️
