DescriptionThe Yule Goat is a Northern European Yule tradition with origins from Germanic paganism existing in many variants during history. Typically made of straw & one of the oldest Scandinavian holiday symbols, it even predates Christianity in the region.Created from the last sheaf of grain bundled during harvest, this wheat was believed to have magical properties, and contained the spirit of the harvest. This connects to ancient proto-Slavic belief where the Koliada Festival honours the God (Dažbog) of the fertile sun which was represented by a white goat, the Koliada festival always had a person dressed as a goat, demanding offerings in the form of booze & presents. During Christmas Epiphany young men would gather, singing songs, enacting plays, & performing pranks in costume. The group of Christmas characters would often include the Yule Goat, a rowdy and sometimes scary creature demanding gifts.Burn Incense as offerings, to carry your wishes, desires, and when casting your spells.
