My devotional candles & incense are still burning. My prayers are the same as always.
Also, for those who are Catholic, there is a Feast of the Presentation of the Lord. This feast which occurs exactly 40 days after Christmas marks the end of the feasts of the old Chriastmas season. This feast goes back to at least the fourth century. This is the day that we bless the candles, almost as a profession of faith in Jesus, the light of nations. It tends to be a part of the Mass the last Sunday in January.
God bless you all.
