Rejoice at the arrival of the Winter Solstice

[SBRed48]

The provider of all life on planet Earth, the Sun, marks its shortest length of time shining its rays on our latitudes and the daylight begins to lengthen again. Rejoice. The Sun has returned.

Let all good men bring in meats from beasts and birds on land and in air

Let all good women prepare root vegetables and greens from the earth, make breads from the grains, ferment berries and nuts for puddings and drinks, and much more.

Let those who wish to swap or mix such tasks between men and women do so without fear.

Let all such things be cooked ready to feast and celebrate around four days after the Solstice.

And so it was for generations.

Then the religious lot muscled in and said, "Do not Worship the Sun God. Worship other Gods", and those that chose the Christian God took over the December 25th celebrations for ever more.
