Krympress reports:
And more and more folk signs say that the autumn is charging. Anna the cold man was popularly called the wintering, since the days gradually became more cold. It is believed that from this day the first matinees come — light predawn frosts. The peasants believed that the first frosts were the tricks of the brushwood itself — the evil spirit “responsible” for frosts and cold winds. According to legend, he walked on this day around the yards, froze the earth and air, and let various ailments into the elderly.
The church now honors the memory of St. Anne — the Mother of Mary, who gave birth to Jesus Christ. Anna was born in the priest’s family and married Joachim, with whom she lived in Nazareth. Despite numerous attempts to conceive a child, the married couple never appeared. But once to Joachim, who had retired to the desert, was an angel who said that Anna would soon give birth to a daughter. Joachim returned home, and soon his wife, indeed, gave birth to a girl. Maria received the name only on the 15th day according to the Jewish custom. By the way, they called it as the angel ordered to do, saying that the name of the daughter of Anna and Joachim was prepared by the Lord himself.
The reverend of UNZHENSKY, Zheltovodsky, who was born in Nizhny Novgorod and preached Christianity in Chuvashia, is revered on August 7 and the Monki Makarii. He was a monk according to the reign of Prince Vasily Ioannovich and lived 95 years. He died in 1504. At the burial site of Makarii, a Makaryevo-Utzhensky monastery with seven stone churches was built.
