Christmas, many feel that the candles are symbolic of the sun's
light and warmth in the middle of dark winters especially during
Winter Solstice (21 or 22 December). Christians see candles as the
light of Christ and the lighting of candles on Christmas Eve comes
from the Jewish "Feast of Lights" or Hanukkah. Christmas
