I do the same as I follow most of their days even though I am not actually Urglaawe. If someone wants to be irritated by it they can. I will do it anyway. Unless I am in you group what I or any other Heathen is doing shouldn't matter if it's not racists.
    Urglaawe? I tried to google search this and all I got was stuff on the Pennsylvania Dutch. My family is from York, PA but I've never heard this term. Can you link a good source? Though it would make sense a branch based on the PA Dutch would do the 12 days as carried over from Christianity since most PA Dutch magickal and religious traditions were a mix of Christianity and their old folk traditions. My family has a history in their Pow Wow tradition.

    And most of the people doing it aren't claiming to be heathen just pagan. They are more eclectic without looking into the meanings or history of things they are picking. Like they can't tell you why they do the 12 days of Yule but just that they do cause all the other Pagans do. I guess it's kind of the stereotypical idea of "fluffy". Lol.

      Just 12 days of Yule? The Anglo-Saxons called the entire month of December 'Yule' and the month of January 'After Yule.'
      All of which suggests it must have been a helluva party!

            When I got home from work this morning I told JP that 'Christmas is my favourite month'. Maybe I should have said 'Yule'.
            夕方に急なにわか雨は「夕立」と呼ばれるなら、なぜ朝ににわか雨は「朝立ち」と呼ばれないの? ^^If a sudden rain shower in the evening is referred to as an 'evening stand', then why isn't a shower in the morning called 'morning stand'?

              I have never been across the way
              Seen the desert and the birds
              You cut your hair short
              Like a shush to an insult
              The world had been yelling
              Since the day you were born
              Revolting with anger
              While it smiled like it was cute
              That everything was shit.
