It is going to be Christmas soon, and the season kickstarts with the Christmas tree and other decorations. Everyone celebrating Christmas will be busy getting their Christmas trees, lights, and Christmas ornaments. Just like keeping a Christmas tree at home, hanging a Christmas Wreath on the door is synonymous with Christmas and the festive season. Different types of Christmas Wreaths are available in the market, and before we go into that topic, it is important to know what Christmas Wreaths signify and their meaning.

Significance of Christmas Wreaths

Christmas Wreaths are decorative pieces that usher in the cheer and joyous spirit of Christmas along with the Christmas tree. These wreaths are always circular in shape and made of a combination of Holly, berries, and mistletoe. The leaves from the evergreen signify strength, and since they endure the harsh winters, the greens also signify courage and strength. The circle represents eternal life, just like human life. The shape of the Christmas wreath also symbolizes the crown of thorns that was kept on the head of Jesus Christ, and the resurrection that leads to the belief that life is eternal. The term wreath is derived from Middle English word, ‘wrethe’ which means a band. The leaves and fruits in the band symbolize the strength of life.

Types of Christmas Wreaths

There are two types of wreaths, the Christmas Wreath, and the Advent Wreath. The Christmas Wreath as mentioned above symbolizes courage and strength.

A conventional Advent Wreath is made up of a circle of four violets or rose candles with evergreens, and there will be a fifth candle in the center. One candle a week is lit before supper, and the last and the middle one is lit on Christmas Eve. It represents the birth of Jesus Christ, and during the olden days, people gathered around these wreaths and lit fire. They signified the hope for the Spring season, and Catholics and Protestants use them to celebrate their hope in Jesus Christ.
