SUMMARY:St. Lucia (Sweden)\, festival of light.
DESCRIPTION:Saint Lucy’s Day\, also called Lucia Day or the feast of Saint Lucy\, is a Christian feast day observed on 13 December. The observance commemorates Lucia of Syracuse\, an early-4th-century virgin martyr under the Diocletianic Persecution\, who according to legend brought food and aid to Christians hiding in the Roman catacombs\, wearing a candlelit wreath on her head to light her way and leave her hands free to carry as much food as possible. Her feast day\, which coincided with the shortest day of the year prior to calendar reforms\, is widely celebrated as a festival of light. Falling within the Advent season\, Saint Lucy’s Day is viewed as a precursor of Christmastide\, pointing to the arrival of the Light of Christ in the calendar on Christmas Day. – Wikipedia
