Town and church holidays
On this day, the Orthodox Church honors the memory of St. Hilarion the New. The Monk Hilarion the New, hegumen of Pelikite, from his youth devoted himself to the service of God and spent many years in solitude. For purity and holiness of life, he was first awarded the rank of presbyter, and then appointed abbot of the Pelikite monastery (near the Dardanelles).
He has the gift of healing and exorcism. He dedicated his whole life to helping people. He is said to be able to make it rain in the midst of a summer drought, fill the nets with fish when there is no catch, and drive away birds and pests from the fields.
Hilarion lived a long life and was killed by the commander Lachanodrakon, who persecuted the Christians.
Our ancestors also called this day Hilarion – Bring out the shafts. The day got its name because by April 10 the weather was warming up and snow was not expected. This means it’s time to clean the sled. To do this, they need to be released from the shafts.
Traditions and rituals
Usually the first flowers of spring are already in Hilarion, and on this day the Stepanov wreath, woven by the whole family on August 15, has lost its strength. The crown was brought to the hut and hung in the red corner. It is believed that he protects the house from illness and bad luck.
When someone gets sick, the stems are torn from the crown and poured with boiling water. The good spirit of the blossoming meadow spread at the same time to help people to overcome ailments.
Signs
- If it thunders now, the summer will be rainy and hot
- If the seagulls fly low above the ground – wait for warming
- Since Hilarion became famous for his willingness to help everyone and everything, today it is not customary to refuse help, otherwise you will bring trouble on yourself.
