Holidays
November 27
Filip's Day
After Filip's Day, a 40-day Christmas fast began, so the people fed up the day before.
Traditionally, this day was celebrated on a “wide leg”. The harvest was over and the bins were full of grain, potatoes, cabbage and other vegetables were harvested from the fields, and part of the livestock was slaughtered. All this was put on the table.
On this day, weddings and other noisy holidays were ended. All the time was supposed to devote for a work and pious pursuits.
However, in the evening of Filip's Day one could be engaged in divination. For this purpose, the girls secretly left a piece of beef from the evening meal, then hid it under a pillow at night, said the cherished words three times and went to bed. After that, in a dream, you could see the future bridegroom.
From Filip's Day, “woman sit-ups” started: women gathered in one hut, spun flax and wool, and sang quiet songs or talked. Quite a few sayings and proverbs that emphasize the importance of needlework have been preserved: “A negligent spinner does not have a shirt on himself”; "If you do not strain in the winter, there will be nothing to weave in the summer"; "Plow - feeds, spindle - clothing."
In some areas on this day a rite of exile of cockroaches was performed. For this, it was necessary for the whole family to pull out of the hut a string with a cockroach tied by the leg.
