About Trees ...
On the night Christ was born, legend says, all the trees burst into bloom. Thus began many stories about the Christmas tree.
Early folk tales described a huge tree in the midst of a , forest. The tree held many candles, some straight, some upside down. At the top was an infant with a halo around his head.
It was believed that the tree represented humanity. The candles, up and down, symbolized people, good and bad. The infant was the Christ Child.
