People called Saint Philemon Phil Spring.
Traditions and rituals
In Philemon, women must spend all day in the kitchen. It is believed that the more food the housewife prepares, the richer the house.
The main dish is a loaf of bread, dedicated to the sun and eaten piece by piece, which is distributed among the members of the household, neighbors and all travelers passing by.
After removing the bread from the oven, it is placed on a clean white towel and raised three times above the head so that it is closer to heaven and God. The remaining crumbs need to be thrown back. People believe: if you throw bread and salt back, you will have bread and salt in the fall.
Moreover, they treat the poor and needy. They say that the more good you do on this day, the better.
