Pagan Sun Festival Becomes Christmas It is common knowledge that the true date of Christ's birth has not yet been deter mined . . . but have you won dered why the 25th of De cember was selected to cele brate Christ's birth? For a long time the 6th of January was celebrated as the day of the Nativity, and was not changed to the ear lier date until about 375 AD. According to the Roman Julian calendar, the 25th of December was reckoned the winter solstice, and the birth day of the sun! This was the day that the light lengthened, and the powers of the sun once again grew strong. It was a symbolic promise that once against the heat of the sun would make the grass grow, the cattle thrive, and all crops flourish. The Christian church felt that by turning the 25th of December sun festival into a Holy Day, they could convert many non - believers from their worship of the sun to Him who is called the "Son of Righteousness." y vn m i iltillMlilll 'EVERGLAZE' How very festive she locks in her white dress of "Everglaze" cotton damask. The tiny waistline above the bouffant skirt is accented with a cummerbund-sash of silver and gold "Everglaze" cotton satin.
