Extractions: and Cultural Traditions Part Two Modern society, however, has lost this understanding of matter as having a creative power of its own. We tend to view matter instead as a dead, inanimate substance. The word 'matter' remains a dry, inhuman, and purely intellectual concept, without any psychic significance for us. How different was the former image of matter - the Great Mother - that could encompass and express the profound emotional meaning of Mother Earth. (Jung 1964) For some people, however, the scientific study of evolution and life does inspire a sense of awe at the mysterious creativity of matter. I would say that if 'dead' matter has reared up this curious landscape of fiddling crickets, song sparrows, and wondering men, it must be plain even to the most devoted materialist that the matter of which he speaks contains amazing, if not dreadful powers. (Eiseley 1978) Growth and development are just one part of the life cycle of a tree. Trees also die and decay. They are subject to disease and defoliation, and this fact is reflected in some World-tree myths. The Norse myths say that the trunk of Yggdrasill is rotting. Deer and goats leap among the branches of the World Tree, devouring the leaves and shoots, and a great serpent gnaws at one of the roots (Davidson 1964).

The buildup to the great festivity starts on December 6th, the feast of St. Nicholas, the patron of children, a bishop in Myra, south Turkey, in the 4th century. In most countries it is customary to give small presents, such as candies, to children on this day. The Christmas celebration lasts for two or three days, and starts with the. Christmas Eve dinner. Traditionally dinner should begin when the first stars appear in the sky. Catholic and Greek Orthodox families do not have any meat dishes on Christmas Eve, as this is considered a day of fast. Presents are generally exchanged after dinner. Most Catholics go to Midnight Mass. Others go to festive church services on Christmas Day. After that dinner is served with meat dishes, such as goose or turkey. Every country has some special dishes which are traditionally served only during this great holiday. In most countries the day after Christmas, St. Stephen's Day, is still a holiday. Various kinds of festivities continue until January 6th. Decorations and Christmas trees are not removed until after that day.
