The legend of mistletoe
The tradition of kissing under the mistletoe comes to the legend of Goddess Frigga, the Goddess of love, and her son Balder, the God of summer sun. Once, Balder dreamt of his death, so the mother, Frigga was worried, not only for her son but also for the life of Earth, because she knew that without her son, all life on Earth would come to an end. So Frigga tried to find a plant that cure her son, but she didn't find nothing. However, Loki, the God of evil, enemy of Balder, knew that there was one plant that Frigga forgot: the mistletoe. Loki made an arrow and placed a sprig of this plant and obliged Hoder, the blind brother of Balder, the God of the Winter, to shoot him this arrow. Balder immediately died. For the next three days, only Frigga revived Balder with the help of mistletoe. Her tears on the plant became pearly white berries and she decided that anyone who stands under the mistletoe would never be harmed and would kiss a person, as a took of love.
