CrimeaPRESS reports:
People noted that the weather was quite warm these days. That’s why they were called Mikhailovsky Thaws. Just don’t relax! After Michaelmas Day, the frosts, as a rule, intensify.
On November 21, the peasants, having received money for the goods sold, paid wages to the workers. Housewives usually set rich tables. Celebrations and feasts were held. On Michaelmas it was customary to treat yourself to homemade beer, honey, pies made from fresh flour, and fried meat. Often the celebrations dragged on until Lent of Filippov.
The Church today celebrates one of the main holidays — the Council of the Archangel Michael and other ethereal forces. The holiday itself was established as a result of the Council of Laodicea in the 4th century. The choice of date itself was associated with numerology. So November is the ninth month from the beginning of the year, because previously the New Year was celebrated in March. It symbolizes the nine angelic ranks. The eighth, according to the Julian calendar, is an indication of the day on which the Council of Heavenly Powers was to take place during the Last Judgment. Since the roads usually thawed on this day, it was also called Michaelmas mud.
