Hello everyone It's me again @Oslec08 Today is the start of Ber months and let's talk about that.

There’s something about the first of September that makes us excited and happy. It is the official start of the “Ber” months or the Christmas season in Philippines, And what is the most special month for me? it is September because it is my Birth month.

In a country where family and faith are the cornerstones of society, you will never run out of reasons why we love the Christmas season. Some malls and establishments are now adorned with Christmas décoration while our favorite yuletide tunes are playing in the background. People cannot help but be merry this early.

Neighborhoods start decorating with the traditional parol as soon as they can. Eventually, Christmas lights, Santa and his reindeers, and even the Snowman will make an appearance.

What is BER MONTHS?

You might be wondering what “ber” month means. To put it simply, these are the 4 months of the year that have “ber” at the end of suffix. This means that SeptemBER, OctoBER, NovemBER, and DecemBER all fall into the so-called “ber” season.

Why are we so thrilled at the start of the “Ber” months? here's some reasons why we love the “Ber” months:

  1. BER means "Bed Weather"

  • In a country where it is hot and humid almost all year long, the start of the “Ber” months signal the start of cooler weather, at least in the evening. During this time of the year, the breeze is refreshing .

  1.  FINDING COMFORT IN FOOD

  • There’s nothing like eating a bowl of lomi, creamy sopas, or lugaw on a rainy afternoon. Most of us find comfort and delight in all-time Filipino favorites like sinigang, tinola, bulalo, and champorado. Food, especially comfort food, has got to be among the top reasons why we love the “Ber” months.The way these hot delights touch our lips and warm our tummies is just priceless.

  1. Looking good in a sweater and Jacket

  • So now is the time to bring out those gorgeous sweaters and chic jackets without looking silly. The “Ber” months give us the right to be extra chic and fashionable. Finally, layering is in season. Carrying a scarf around wouldn’t look ridiculous anymore.

    1. Excited for old traditions

  • The tradition of midnight masses or "Simbang Gabi" but due to pandemic i guess it will be held via Television(TV).

  • exchanging gifts with relatives,family members and neighbors.

  • eating bibingka, preparing for Noche Buena,

  • and attending Christmas parties still sound so new and exciting but because of pandemic we just held the parties inside our house with family members as we are not allowed to have party outside. It’s funny how we look forward to things that already form part of our traditions and culture.

    1. Let’s sing “Merry Christmas”

  • You always feel a special kind of happiness and warmth upon hearing your first Christmas song of the year. Jingles and carols dominate the airwaves and you always feel like singing along. It makes you merrier during your commute and jollier while strolling in public places.

  1. The countdown begins

    Join the nation in the Christmas countdown. Yes, there’s still the day for our dearly departed and Halloween, but the counting goes on. Things get really exciting and thrilling when you are down to the last 10 days before Christmas.


    7. Nothing beats the Christmas spirit

  • It’s just so easy to be cheerful and merry during the Christmas season. It’s a busy season, but everyone simply knows how to get their happiness on. It’s a beautiful season of giving and sharing. It’s a season for families and friends to get together.

  • There are a lot of reasons why we love the ber months — from the comfort it brings to the merry spirit it spreads. This Christmas season, always remember to cheer up, have fun, and be happy.

I know it's not yet the month of Christmas but for us Filipino Ber months Is the start of Christmas Season.

Good article, i think it won't be the same unlike last year because of the pandemic n hope soon it's going to be over n there's a vaccine available already before it comes though we all be on a new normal to celebrate it but if it's what makes us safe, then so be it, the meaning n spirit of Christmas still the same as Christmas' for the children but the celebration would be different unlike before.
