These stars God put in the heavens reminds me of my friend's Christmas tree. When I now see them in the night sky they may remind me of God's Christmas gift, Jesus.
That same northern cross is also depicted as a goose, and many people, especially in the past, would celebrate Christmas with a goose for dinner. Reminds me of John 6:56 "He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me; and I in him."
