Ornament(s) of the Day: Yule Log

This Yule Log ornament is one of my favorite Old World Christmas ornaments. I hang it in a place that is very visible on the tree.

According to the ornament tag: Burning a Yule Log is a tradition celebrated in many countries around Christmastime. Since fire serves as a source of warmth and light during the cold darkness of winter, a special large log is burned to symbolize rebirth in the new year, and to remind us of the heavenly light that shone at Christ's birth.
