Astrology of Christmas: Christ, Cosmos, and Winter Solstice | Astrotheology

The origins of the world’s religions and myths are deeply rooted in the cosmos, in the language of astrology and in a language deeply buried. The birth of Christ reflects the rising of the Sun after its stillness at the Winter Solstice. From there, we begin the 12 Days of Christmas, mirroring the 12-spoked wheel of the zodiac (the wheel of life), the 12 archetypes through which reality unfolds in time.Understanding the deeper meaning behind Christian holidays like Christmas and the Epiphany, as well as the archetypal nature of winter and the solstice, offers us a deeper way to reconnect with the wisdom beneath the dogma.At the root of it all is eternal truth. A seed of wisdom waiting to rise again.
