Town and church holidays
On this day, the Orthodox Church on March 6 honored the memory of Monk Timothy, a disciple of the Blessed Theoktist. The second week of Great Lent begins. The second week of fasting is dedicated to the memory of the Byzantine saint Gregory Palma.
In the folk calendar, the date was called Timothy Vesnova. According to the signs on March 6, they judge what spring will be like. At the beginning of spring, the ancient Slavs tried to throw away all broken and unnecessary things to cleanse their homes of accumulated negative energy, and save themselves from misfortunes and problems. Housewives carefully sweep houses and farmsteads. Cleansing was seen as an effective cleansing ritual.
