Why? Cause it's decorated with the branch of mistletoe...
Evergreen mistletoe grew in the forests where the Druid tribe lived. Since the time of the Druids, mistletoe has been considered a sacred plant, it was with the branches of this plant that all rituals and homes were decorated. Ancient manuscripts have told us about this. It was believed that mistletoe branches repel evil spirits and give vitality. Then the tradition came to Greek...
During the holidays, young Greeks with mistletoe branches passed by Greek women. The one whose shoulder was touched by a branch of mistletoe was considered engaged.
From that moment on, the couple was allowed to show their feelings, touch each other and kiss in front of everyone.
This tradition came to Europe, it is believed that a kiss under the mistletoe is a silent marriage proposal. A couple who kiss under a mistletoe branch becomes engaged, and will get married next year. On the 12th day after Christmas, the mistletoe under which the couple kissed is burned. From this moment on, the couple cannot change their decision, the parents of the young begin to prepare for the wedding.
Sophisticated engagement gift.
