January 14 — mid-winter
CrimeaPRESS reports:
In the folk calendar, January 14 is called “Perezimye”. Let’s celebrate the Old New Year! What is remarkable about this day? They say that if you spend it cheerfully, then there will be a lot of joy in your life for at least the next twelve months.
But! On this day you cannot swear, slander, or think about bad things! You can’t borrow money without being in debt all year. But if you wear a new thing today, you will have good luck throughout the year.
The day is also rich in weather and natural signs:
- The waxing moon on the night of January 14 means a strong flood in the spring.
- If it snows in the morning, then winter will also be snowy, and spring will come late.
- We observed the direction of the wind: if it blows from the north, then the summer will be cold, from the west — stormy, from the east — dry, from the south — quite ordinary, warm, without any special temperature changes.
- Heavy snow on Vasiliev’s day means a good summer and a rich harvest. If it started snowing in the morning, this means that the snowfalls will not stop for a very long time and, most likely, will last until spring.
- The thaw predicts cool summer days.
- Bright stars in the sky on January 14 foretell imminent frosts.
And further. On January 14, Orthodox Christians celebrate the Circumcision of the Lord. According to Scripture, on the eighth day after Christmas, according to ancient Jewish tradition, the Holy Child was circumcised and given the name Jesus, which means “Savior.”
And also keep in mind: from today until Epiphany itself, there are Christmastide, the second half of the Terrible Evenings. It is believed that evil spirits rage with redoubled force, seduce and lead into sin.
Don’t forget to congratulate the birthday people of the day! Basil, Gregory, Peter, Theodosius, Theodosius and Emilia!
