Почему колядники переодеваются в зверей, иностранцев и потусторонних существ По представлению древних людей, загробный мир – как бы перевернутый этот мир. И соответственно, представители того мира такие же, как и мы, но немного другие. И соответственно поэтому колядники переодевались по категориям - "чужой", потусторонний. Это мог быть не человек, а животное, так в группах колядников появились звериные образы. Это – могли быть “чужие” по категории – инородный, так у нас появляется, например, “немец”. Это могут быть не люди, а вообще – демонические существа, поэтому колядники обматывали руки соломой, становились на ходуле или наоборот приседали, говорили очень глубокими, низкими голосами, или – наоборот, очень писклявыми.

According to another legend, the Christmas tree was introduced into use by Martin Luther, who was walking through the forest at Christmas and saw a star shining above the Christmas tree, which seemed to him to be absolutely identical to the Star of Bethlehem, and he put that Christmas tree in his home and decorated it with a star. This is how the Christmas tree allegedly came to Western Europe. And later, in the 19th century, it was borrowed by France, later taken over by England, it even stood in the Windsor Palace, and later German immigrants who moved to America also brought a Christmas tree. Initially, when the Christmas tree appeared, it was decorated with fruits, apples, for example, which symbolize the same Original Sin of Adam and Eve.

In addition, in pre-Christian times, such events required a certain sacrifice. In ancient times, when human sacrifices had already been abandoned, it was necessary to sacrifice what was valuable to God. And cattle were valuable at that time. And thus we proceed to the rite of "driving the goat". That is, cattle were sacrificed, which was then replaced by baking cookies in the form of Christmas cattle. Why in ancient times carolers were associated with the afterlife At this time, the border between the worlds becomes so thin that there is a transition between them. It is also connected with honoring the dead. On the one hand, the dead were treated with tremendous respect and honor, as if they welcomed this transition. On the other hand, it is a little scary. We had to somehow protect ourselves from them.
