Yes, Yule is the ancient Germanic name for the winter solstice, which falls on December 21st in the Northern Hemisphere and June 21st in the Southern Hemisphere. It was celebrated as a sacred festival in many pagan cultures, and it is the precursor to the modern-day holiday of Christmas. The name "Yule" comes from the Old Norse word "jol," which means "wheel." In some traditions, the Yule Wheel is an important symbol of the solstice.
