Mistletoe Tips
Once your mistletoe has arrived, if you can we advise you to snip of the ends and place in a little water with a little bit of sugar.
It is also advisable to store your mistletoe outside in an unheated shed or garage, then at the last minute, when you actually need it, bring it indoors. This should then last the rest of Christmas.
Kissing under the Mistletoe
Kissing under the mistletoe is one of the many things that makes Christmas a magical time. According to custom any two people who meet under a hanging of mistletoe are obliged to kiss.
It stems back to the 18th century when a young lady standing under some at christmas time could not refuse to be kissed. Such a kiss could mean deep romance or lasting friendship and goodwill. But if the girl remained unkissed, she could not expect to marry during the following year.
Antoher origin is related to the story of Baldur (The Norse God of innocence, beauty, joy, purity, and peace) coming back to life because of his mother Frigga (The Norse Goddess of marriage, motherhood, fertility and love) who removed the mistletoe's poison with her tears. When Baldur came back to life he kissed everyone who passed underneath the mistletoe out of happiness and gratitude and thus started the custom. Hence why mistletoe is used at Christmas, a time of love and joy.
Also it is said that Mistletoe should be burned on the twelfth night; if the mistletoe was not burned everyone who had kissed under it would never marry.
Whether we believe the myth or not, mistletoe always makes for a great christmas celebration. Even if the pagan importance of mistletoe has been long forgotten, the custom of exchanging a kiss under the mistletoe is still as much fun know as it probably was then.
