Discord for the whole year: Kaluga residents told about the signs on November 12

Today Orthodox Kalugans remember the Hieromartyr Zinovius, Bishop of Egeia and his sister, Martyr Zinovius.

They were born in the city of Egach into a pious Christian family, and after the death of their parents, they distributed their inheritance to the poor and devoted themselves to the service of God. Zinovios was elected bishop of the Christian community and during the persecution of Christians he was captured and tortured. After learning of her brother’s suffering, Zinovia voluntarily came to the governor and declared her faith.

The saints remained faithful to Christ despite the abuse.

In Russia, the day was called Sinichkin, as people were preparing for the meeting of wintering birds - hung troughs, prepared food.

It was believed that quarrels on this day can lead to discord for the whole year. It was also impossible to offend the birds so as not to cause trouble and health problems.

It is not recommended to take and lend money on this day.

As MK in Kaluga reported earlier, Kaluga residents were given recommendations for November 11.
