Krympress reports:
On June 22, the shortest nights of the year begin. At the same time, the summer is fully entered into its rights. Our ancestors believed that on this day the sun gives all its strength. They said: «From the Cyril of the day — what the sun gives, then the man in the barn.» That is why, on June 22, a large number of rituals were called to appease the sun and get a rich harvest.
The church is now honored to honor St. Cyril, also known as the Archbishop of Alexandria. He was a theologian and writer. At one time, he was actively engaged in the interpretation of the Holy Scriptures: he explained incomprehensible moments to the parishioners, and turned many into faith. For a long time and stubbornly fought with the heretics and manifestations of paganism in society. For 32 years he ruled the church and died his death in 444, leaving a large number of works behind.

- Strawberries are red — sow oats in vain.

- On Cyril, the end of spring, initiative to fly.
- Cyril has power from the earth.
- To Cyril gives the land to the sun.
