Significance of Star in Christmas

The Christmas star has traditionally been associated with the spirit of the celebration and there is something very special about it. The significance of the star can be related to the birth of Jesus Christ.

The star symbolises the holy star that appeared quite miraculously in the eastern sky the day Jesus Christ was born. It is believed to have shown the way to the three wise men from the East to find the new-born king Jesus. They saw the bright light, and noticed the star moving on and on, as if it were showing them the way to go. They, too, followed the star till it rested above the birthplace of Jesus.

Stars symbolize great multitudes, heavenly favour, wisdom, guides, watchers, and aspirations. The star stands for high hopes and ideals, a hope for a good fortune and to reach above oneself. The Christmas star continues to adorn the churches and houses as part of the traditional Christmas celebrations. The brightness of the stars is associated with the light of Christ, which shines even in the darkness. It is the light, which guides and shows the right path to travel in life. The brightness of the star is the symbol of enlightenment and victory of good over evil.
 
The Christmas star symbolises high hopes and high ideals - hope for good fortune, hope for reaching above oneself and spreading goodwill, happiness around us.

There are innumerable ways in which you can recycle things which you otherwise throw away.

Rolls Royce, since its evolution has been a mark of high status and opulence, simply because any middle-class person cannot afford to buy a car that costs 3-5 lac dollars.

Clip that Dungaree Back On!

Image
Dungarees initially started off as a men’s wear. Further when women made themselves equal against men, their fashion statement also got updates with women starting to wear dungarees. Till date, it has been a ‘must’ in every fashion -conscious woman’s wardrobe and is completely worth having. It goes on all kinds of body shapes like apple, pear, and hourglass and so on. All you must check on is the style. Some women look great with shorts styled dungaree, some with long ones and some with skirt styled dungarees.    One of the best combinations is to sport a white plane crop top and a typical light blue, ripped-jeans dungaree. Otherwise sport a shorts-styled black dungaree with a short and bright tube top that will only be visible from the sides. Dungarees are definitely back in fashion and if you haven’t bought one yet, go get it!
