Town and church holidays

On this day, the Orthodox Church honors the memory of St. Titus the Wonderworker, who lived in the 8th-9th centuries. As a child, he rejected the vanity of all worldly things and chose to serve the Lord.

He soon took monastic vows at Studion Monastery. The monks fell in love with him for his meekness, mercy, love and ascetic work, and God rewarded him with the gift of miracles.

Traditions and rituals

People call this day – Icebreaker because the reservoirs are finally freed from the ice. The day is also called Beskhlebnitsa, because on this date grain stocks run out.

The belief says: the better this day is celebrated, the better sales will go throughout the year.

Signs

  • The melting ice on the lake immediately sank – in a poor yield.
  • Pigeons are cooing – heat will come soon.
