Traditions

Beliefs say that Ivan Kupala’s night combined the principles of man and woman, as well as the elements of fire and water. Therefore, unmarried women predicted love and fate: during the day they wove wreaths, and at night they lowered them into the water, determining the future in the direction of their movement.

Also, people jumped into the fire and burned the effigy of Kupala, allegedly the energy of the fire cleanses a person from negativity.

In ancient times, they swam in the river until sunset. It gives beauty to women, and strength to men.
