The mistletoe is a plant that appeals to the imagination. Around New Year's Eve, the plant is used as decoration. An old custom states that someone who stands under it may be kissed without punishment and that the kiss brings luck and love. Among the Celts and Germans, the mistletoe played a role in fertility rituals, including as an offering to Freya, the goddess of love and fertility.
