July 10 — Samson's Day. The peasants these days asked for good weather
CrimeaPRESS reports:
In general, since July 10, the hottest hay time has come. The peasants prayed especially zealously these days, asking the patron saint for good weather. Sunny windless days guaranteed a good harvest of the main cattle feed in winter. The rains did not bode well — wet hay rots quickly and, of course, is unsuitable for feeding animals /
While the peasants were puzzled by haymaking, rich and wealthy people on Samson tried to show the generous side of their soul to the maximum: they gave alms to as many poor and beggars as possible. True, often this was not done out of the will of a good heart. It was believed that the more you give on July 10, the more you get for the whole year.
The notes for today are:
- Rain on Samson — it will rain constantly until the very Indian Summer.
- Curly clouds on July 10 float from the north side? To drought. If the clouds float from the West, then there will be inclement weather.
- Green hay on Samson? There will be a lot of buckwheat porridge. But black hay on July 10 portends a rich year for millet porridge.
- Sticky droplets of juice appeared on the leaves of horse sorrel — a sign that it will rain in two days.
- Bindweed flowers suddenly closed — to the rain.
And more attention should be paid to dreams seen on the night of Samson. So, if you dreamed of a wreath on your head, you will gain fame, but it will be empty and useless. An empty bottle — to a fun feast. Signs on houses — for shopping. Talking with God in a dream — be careful, you are in danger. If a girl in a dream swallows saliva or feels hungry, this promises her an early weight loss.
Birthdays are celebrated: Ivan, Ignatius and Ivanna, Anekt, Markey, Samson, Sever, Luka, Serapion.
