What can not do Volgograd residents on September 30, so that misfortunes bypass the house
On this day, women can not work – to avoid misfortunes, it is better to trust men. The Orthodox honor the memory of the holy martyrs Faith, Hope, Love and their mother Sophia. In the people, the date is known as the Maiden's holiday.
According to legend, in Rome under the emperor Hadrian lived a noble widow Sophia with three daughters. She named the girls after the Christian virtues. When the emperor learned about the devout family, he demanded to renounce the faith. Their daughters died under torture and Sophia died of grief on the third day after their burial.
It is strictly forbidden to insult, insult or insult women. Women themselves should be good-natured and affectionate, avoid conflicts - otherwise the family will start discord.
Prayer on this day is accepted for an early wedding, the health of children and healing from infertility. But it is impossible to get married and go on dates - there will be no happiness in marriage. Noisy feasts do not suit, but they bake cakes and treat women with sweets - then there will be peace and harmony in the family. It is also allowed to mourn for dead relatives and weep over their sorrows: tears bring relief.
