Even today, this tradition exists. But it is very rarely practiced. During Christmas season, the tradition of window candles follows The Colonial Williamsburg Christmas. This tradition is mostly practiced in United States as well as in some other countries. In Colonial America, a candle in a window was used to honor dignitaries or at just plain celebrations.
