Swedish writer Alex Schulman observes a growing disconnect between traditional holidays and the natural progression of seasons. He predicts a future where seasonal celebrations like Halloween, symbolized by pumpkins, and Christmas, represented by Christmas trees, will occur irrespective of their typical timeframe. Schulman suggests that these holidays might soon be celebrated in months entirely unrelated to their origins—pumpkins in July and Christmas trees in August. This shift indicates a broader disruption of established cultural rhythms and a potential loss of meaning associated with these observances. He laments a lack of order in how holidays and seasons are currently perceived and celebrated. The author’s commentary reflects a concern over the increasingly arbitrary nature of modern holiday traditions in Sweden.
