The Holly :
The holly represents the crown of thorns that Jesus wore when he was crucified. Because the edge of the holly is prickly and feels like thorns.
The Star :
The star that we put on top of our christmas tree and think “ this is going to make the christmas tree sparkle like diamonds “ actually represents the big star that God put in the sky so the wise men can find Jesus and worship him.
The candle :
The candle represents the Lord, Jesus Christ. The saviour and the light of the world. It is told that when we light our candle on Christmas Eve it means we remind ourselves that Jesus is the light of the world.
The Angels :
The angels are symbols of christmas because they’re the ones that told the shepherds the good news that baby Jesus is born and the ones that sang the praise song ( Glory to God in the Highest and on Earth peace to all with good will ). They also told the shepherds where to find the new king so the shepherds would know where to worship Jesus Christ.
The wreath :
The wreath is a symbol of everlasting life because the circle has no beginning and has no end so has our life. After death there are three places to go. Why it’s a christmas symbol is because Jesus is the creator of our life and because it is said in the Bible “ I am the Beginning and the End, the Alpha and the Omega and the First and the last.
The Christmas Tree :
Some people say that christmas trees are there for santa to come and put your presents under the tree but, actually we have a christmas tree so it would remind us of the Tree of Life which most christians and catholics believe.
