Can Christmas be too early?
Jump to: Newest in thread
So as a scorpio I celebrated birthday in November. I notice more and more people have already decorated their house for the xmas jollies. I refuse to put my tree up until the month is over.
Do you feel that it is taking away the festive joy out of Christmas having your decorations up too early? |

I would say it is a bit too early to think festive. But as my daughter is making wreaths I have -from about twenty minutes ago - now got one hanging on my front door! Tree and other decorations can wait until December. |

Niki wanted to bring our Christmas tree (which lives in a pot in the garden) in last week when it was my birthday. I said I didn't want it in until 1st December - I won because she can't lift it  |

"Christmas starts after my birthday which is the beginning of December the first weekend after the tree goes up  "
Yes I'm totally with you on that one celebrate your birthday first then then festive drinks straight after.
I Feel sorry for people born in December  |

We don't put our decorations up until the weekend before Christmas. If other people want to that's fine by me we need all the joy we can get in the world. It's not really about Christ's Mass anyway |

I won't even talk about it before mid December . I had to laugh when a local firm once had their Christmas party in last week of November citing venue booking problems . |

I start around thw end of November sorting the Decs and getting some of the tins of chocs and biscuits, but i feel the spirit of Christmas has been to commercialised. |

"Yes. It starts far too early. It shouldn't start until 1st December.
Why ?"
Because I find it starts too early. The excitement and build up is so drawn out. We are always looking ahead in life instead of enjoying the here and now. |

After being in Brisbane for work last December and experiencing Christmas time in 34°C heat it really doesn’t bother me now. I just want to embrace the joy of it, no matter when it starts.
Peace to you all and merry Christmas xx |

I don't think we need to rush through autumn and the beginning of winter. Those times of year are just as magical, we don't celebrate harvest festival the way we used to.
Mid winter is bleak and yes Christmas can bring some joy to the darkest tins of year. But with it being so early I think some of that benefit is lost when we need it most.
