Merry Christmas!”
This is how Filipinos greet each other on September
1st even if it’s still over three and a half months before
December 25. 
The Philippines, one of six predominantly Christian
countries in Asia, boasts the earliest and longest
Christmas season in the world.
Every year, Filipinos all around the world mark
September 1, as the start of the Christmas
countdown. The "Ber months" countdown, which runs
from September to December, is one of the most
important traditions that sets apart Christmas in the
Philippines from celebrations in the rest of the world.
Asked how the phenomenon of the “Ber months” first
began, Clifford Sorita, a sociologist and former
seminarian with the order of the Society of the Divine
Word told NPR that it grew organically, without any
precise timeline. Sorita, however, said that the frenzy
surrounding the "Ber months" represents "a
psychological time clock for most Filipinos to prepare"
a jammed Christmas calendar with family and friends,
especially returning OFWs.
September 1 usually starts with radio and TV stations
playing Christmas music. (Cue Jose Mari Chan and
the endless memes.)
Stalls selling Christmas decorations and fireworks
begin to line the street. In some households,
Christmas decorations are already hung up this early.
The most common of which is the “parol,” a star-
shaped Christmas lantern made of wood and paper,
or metal and a shell called capiz usually used for
window panes.
Miss Universe 2018 Catriona Gray’s national costume
was inspired by these Filipino holiday staples which
light up the dark with beautiful colors and patterns.

Disney UK even created a heart-warming advert on

the “parol” featuring the story of a Filipina
grandmother.
Another Christmas tradition that a start early for
Filipinos is Christmas caroling. Similar to trick-or-
treating, Filipino children go from house-to-house to
sing Christmas carols in exchange for some coins,
otherwise known as “Aguinaldo.” They usually sing
with make-shift instruments like tambourines made
from metal bottle caps, maracas made out of bottles
filled with coins, and drums from empty canisters. 
Christmas caroling will be allowed in areas under Alert Level 2, the
Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) said
Wednesday.
“Under Alert Level 2, caroling is allowed provided that MPHS
(minimum public health standards) are followed. So it depends on the
classification of the area,” DILG Undersecretary and spokesperson
Jonathan Malaya said in a text message to INQUIRER.net.
