It's actually called the winter solstic
Good job butterflies on describing the holiday.
It seems to be a combination of New age tradition.

It also depends on what practice God you believe in. But regardless, it is the rebirth of the God(the celts noticed the sun seemed to stay still then on this day continue it's corse). I'ts held usually o nthe 23rd of the year.
You can google the information seek out sites to describe it for you.

vrey good butterfliesforhope. Wiccans see yule as the birth of the God cause the sun repersents the God's birth as it comes back (days getting longer). Burning The yule log right before dawn is common to welcome the sun.
The Yule log is commonly wraped in the herds butterfliesforhope said. with the 3 candels ontop.
You'll note that many of what butterfliesforhope is accosated with Christmas as well. thats cause this acient ansester of this holiday is where Christmas came from

this is all about rebirth for Wiccans. a Renewal. Some Wiccans see this as the new year (while others see Samhain as new year)

She got it off a site but yes, It is a great reference.
