RE: Christmas: the origin of mistletoe
The Druids also thought the mistletoe was magical and did rituals around cutting it for Alban Arthen (winter solstice). Because of this, it is banned even today in many churches. The Norse story is great!
Nice info, thank you! I remember reading about the rituals where they sacrificed animals, but I had no idea mistletoe was banned for it.
