Mistletoe Lore: Mistletoe has been the subject of many legends and
traditions for hundreds of years. Ancient Druids considered mistletoe sacred
because it grew without roots in the ground and assumed that it must have
been planted by the gods. Mistletoe was thought to ban evil spirits and
bring good luck and great blessings. When warriors met beneath mistletoe,
they had to lay down their weapons and call a truce. From this, it became a
sign of peace and good will. But why do we kiss people under the mistletoe?
It all started with a goddess called Frigga. Her son, Balder, was shot with
an arrow made of mistletoe. Frigga's friends succeeded in conjuring up
powers to save the boy. Balder lived anew and Frigga ordered that the
mistletoe should never again be used to harm. Instead, she made it a symbol
of love by kissing anyone who passed under it. |
