A time to connect and share and spend with loved ones.
Nothing to do with religion for me, Jesus wasn't even born in December, nor in a stable. To be honest it's more based on Yule and the Yule tree, a Celtic/Pagan festivity. Church created their own version of most Pagan holidays & celebrations, Christmas is no different.
I love the lights, the vibe. It's the darkest time of the year and having the lights, love and sharing is great, especially during that time of the year.

Whatโ€™s the meaning of Christmas

Whatever you want it to be.
Just don't expect anyone/everyone else to agree or understand the meaning you give it.

Otherwise, I would suggest you ask the people with whom you celebrate it with in your community/family if you want a group consensus or to define beliefs/behaviors/ideas/ideology. It'd be far more relevant than internet strangers spread out over the world.

If what you're "really" asking is "what's the meaning of Christmas to you?"
Then I'd say it depends on which people I'm spending it with.

"Happy Holidays!"

In my job, you have to work on days like this. Nothing really special about it. But I love the food :wink:

Christians celebrate the birth of Jesus at this time of year. Though I believe he was actually born around July??? He was most certainly born of a virgin and in a manger.

Here's a good link sorta breaks things down.
Ultimately its significance is God joined man by becoming like us. God is with us.

I'm not certain anymore now, it's not July, I thought April.
He wasn't in a manger. He was born in a grotto, which was a special hospice of the Essenes and very cosy. It had furniture, beds, was warm and clean, had lights, and so on. In those days it was the best there was and it wasn't a poor stable and manger at all.
That story was concocted by church to make people feel being poor was okay, cos after all even someone as big as Jesus was poor. Which is NOT true at all!
