The Christmas Tree has always been decorated with different decorations and each of them has a symbolic value that in ancient times was given much attention. First of all, the fact that it is an evergreen is an ancient symbol of immortality, because it retains its color even in the cold winter period, so it spoke of hope in rebirth. once, instead of Christmas lights, were placed on the tree candles, which represented the wisdom that is won with every experience made. The lights of the candles recalled the sacred flame that is in every man, the potential that each one possesses. The balls, all coloured, also had a symbolic meaning; in fact, in addition to decorating the tree, they represented the various experiences that had been made or wanted to be made; the star placed on the top of the tree symbolized the Great Work, that is, the journey back to God, through the pearls of wisdom available through experiences. The star is therefore the point of arrival of every human being. The gifts placed at the foot of the tree meant the virtue of giving, being better and more grateful to one's neighbor. For another version, the lights with which we decorate the tree symbolize the light that Jesus brings into the world, while the spheres, packages, candies and other decorations hanging from the branches, are the symbol of the love that Jesus brings as a gift to humanity.According to some, Christmas balls represent apples that hung in ancient times from sacred trees to make the spirits of nature and fertility return to Earth. in Germany, where the Christmas balls are called kugels, they are said to have the power to protect the casadagli evil spirits. In some cultures it is customary to put objects or gifts on the tree that make sense for the family that hosts the tree, so that it can represent the history of the family itself at an important time of the year.
