September 23: who will be lucky in this day

This time was considered the real name day of the ash tree, and with this tree was associated with many mystical and domestic rituals.

By this date, the first morning frosts were just passing, making the mountain ash sweet and juicy. Grapes were torn and hung under the roof of the house, believing that it will bring prosperity to the family for the coming year. However, greed was strictly forbidden: part of the harvest was necessarily left on branches for snowmen and thrushes. Peasants also cooked from berries healing kvass, saving from colds, and frozen fruits were used as a natural remedy for migraines. By the way, the abundant crop of ash has always served as a faithful harbinger of a harsh and frosty winter.

In ancient times, the ash was considered one of the strongest defenders from evil spirits. With a branch of a tree, a circle was drawn around a person to banish sickness and anxious sleep, and bundles of berries were hung over the windows. It was a custom to hang rowan bars over the entrance after returning from the cemetery to block the path of otherworldly forces.

Our ancestors noticed that the cases started in Ryabinniki, as a rule, are completed safely. On this day, intuition is sharpened, so you should listen more carefully to the inner voice. Travelling will be easy and safe. And those who were born on September 23, fate prepared a long life, patience and hard work.
