Town and church holidays
On this day, the Orthodox Church honors the memory of the Holy Martyr Basil of Ancyra, who lived in the fourth century.
Among the people, Vasily received many nicknames, and all of them are associated with the onset of warm and sunny days. The drops are already beating with strength and main, and people used to say: “Vasily Kapelnik made winter sick.”
If a person is going to build a new house or a barn, or a bath, then it is necessary to see where the drops fall from the roofs, and where the streams flow. No buildings are constructed in such areas. It is believed that here – “the beaten path of water in the depths of the earth”, and the house will not stand firmly.
Traditions and rituals
It was customary to tell fortunes about Vasily during the day. If it sprouts in red circles, it promises a good harvest. They also watched the sky: the blue clouds in it foreshadowed heat and rain. There were other signs: for example, the melting of the snow on the northern side of the anthill promised a hot and long summer.
On this day, the hostesses bake rolls, which symbolize the sun. It is not difficult to prepare such a delicacy even today. You need to take 200 g of butter, one egg, one egg yolk, two spoons of yeast, nine spoons of milk and two spoons of sugar, mix everything and replace it with flour so that the dough does not stick to the table. From this dough, you need to stick small balls, sprinkle them with raisins, put them on a baking sheet and let them rise, and then brush them with a beaten egg and bake.
Signs
- If blue clouds appear in the sky, then hot rain is expected.
- The fog comes – the weather will suddenly change.
- If the snow on the anthill falls from the north, wait for a hot and long summer, if from the south – cold.
- To see the mass character of the web in one place – in a lean year.
