Synopsis

D. W. Kreger’s concept, the Wheel of Time, is a comprehensive model of Neolithic belief systems that, over time, has managed to carry over into our modern holidays. It explains why we celebrate Christmas at midnight, Easter at sunrise, and Halloween in the evening. It explains why the Chinese and Jewish New Years are at different times of the year, yet they both fall on a new moon. It explains why we celebrate Christmas with evergreens, Easter with rabbits, Halloween with Ghosts, and May Day with a May-pole. It explains why St. Patrick’s Day is celebrated with drinking, even in the middle of Lent, and why there is such a thing as Groundhog Day, and much, much more. All these stem from ancient pagan sabbaths, which laid the foundation for all of our modern holidays and religious traditions. Dr. Kreger has traveled the globe over the last 30 years and this is the culmination of his work. He has studied archaeological sites in 17 countries and studied thousands of ancient writings dating back to the dawn of civilization. He has put together all the pieces of a 12,000-year-old, global puzzle, revealing the origin of our modern holidays,and perhaps the origin of religion itself.
