Town and church holidays

On this day, the Orthodox Church honors the memory of two saints at once. They have the same names. We are talking about St. Paul the Simple, who lived in the fourth century, and St. Paul the Confessor, Bishop of Prussia. He lived in the ninth century.

Traditions and rituals

Our ancestors today believed that spring begins with Paul. Although the cold has not subsided. Therefore, they said: “It drips from the roofs, but it scratches the nose”, “Spring is changeable, like a mother: it blows, then it cools”, “Spring and autumn – eight days of period”.

Signs

  • Cloudy weather at night – frost next day.
  • Abundant drops from icicles – to a good harvest of flax and hemp in the summer.
  • If the sun is warm and the south wind blows – to a hot summer.
  • Cold – to many summer storms.
  • Strong winds – so it will be for the next two weeks.
