Did you know that the tradition of celebrating with holly & ivy dates back to pagan times? The two plants were burned together for fertility celebrations; holly symbolizing the masculine and ivy symbolizing the feminine. In the garden the two ground-covering plants can be in fierce competition with each other and with other plants in the garden.
If you are looking to protect your home from negative influences be sure to put some holly around the door frames.
In Europe holly is often referred to as Christ's thorn. The symbolism is rich as the
"
The sharpness of the leaves help to recall the crown of thorns worn by Jesus; the red berries serve as a reminder of the drops of blood that were shed for salvation; and the shape of the leaves, which resemble flames, can serve to reveal God's burning love for His people. Combined with the fact that holly maintains its bright colors during the Christmas season, it naturally came to be associated with the Christian holiday"
