Hey Buddies!!
A very Happy Santa Lucia Day !!
May the Light of Hope shine on you on this day.
Who are from Norway and Sweden must be enjoying your day and who are not, must be wondering what is Santa Lucia Day.
Well Throughout Sweden the feast day of Lucia, or Lucy, is celebrated as a festival of lights.Lucia symbolizes light and growth for human and beast as she emerges out of the darkness. She is said to have been beheaded by the sword during the persecutions of Diocletian at Catania in Sicily. Her body was later brought to Constantinople and finally to Venice, where she is now resting in the church of Santa Lucia. Because her name means "light" she very early became the great patron saint for the "light of the body"--the eyes. Many of the ancient light and fire customs of the Yuletide became associated with her day. Thus we find "Lucy candles" lighted in the homes and "Lucy fires" burned in the outdoors. Before the Reformation Saint Lucy's Day was one of unusual celebration and festivity because, for the people of Sweden and Norway, she was the great "light saint" who turned the tides of their long winter and brought the light of the day to renewed victory.
So Its Santa Lucia Day
Let the queen of lights brighten your daywith love kindness n Happiness.
