Yule is the day when The Lord is reborn, restoring light into the world. Gifts are exchanged symbolic of the gift The Lady has bestowed by giving birth to The Lord, who shines in the sky as the Sun. The Lord's rebirth and the Sun's return is symbolized by burning the Yule log, some of which is saved each year to be used the following Yule, celebrating rebirth.
