INDIA

A Sky of Stars

 

In India, the decoration with colorful stars during Christmas is a vibrant tradition symbolizing the joy of these special holidays. Christian communities light up their homes with stars made of lightweight materials, representing the star of Bethlehem, the same one that guided the Three Kings. This custom is part of the Christmas celebrations that begin on December 25 and conclude on January 6 with Epiphany Day.
Families gather to decorate their homes, creating a unique festive atmosphere and sharing special moments that keep the tradition alive for new generations. The colorful stars not only illuminate the festivities, but also symbolize love, unity, and a sense of community, making Christmas a magical time in the rich Indian culture.
