What can not be done September 11 folk - signs

The tragic events that occurred with John the Baptist, who was executed for his faith and devotion to the Lord through decapitation, are described in detail in church books. Actually, hardly this day can be considered a holiday, rather - a day of remembrance: Christians remember and honor the name of John the Baptist . Since this tragic day, it has its own peculiarities, in particular, it is established that it is impossible to do on September 11, and people's signs determine the conditions under which this day will be successful.

What is forbidden to do on the feast of John the Baptist?

1. Believers had to spend this day in prayers, humility and peace.
2. As a rule, on days of great church holidays or commemorative days, work was not encouraged. On September 11, the day of the beheading of the head of John the Baptist, the signs indicated that it was possible to clean up the turnips in the morning (on this day the Repin festival was also celebrated), but all the affairs had to be finished before noon - work in the afternoon promised misfortune to those who she was engaged in it.
3. Since the day is associated with execution through the cutting of the head, Christians are forbidden to eat any fruits and vegetables of round shape that resemble the head: that is, no apples, no tomatoes, no watermelons are available on this day.
4. It was strictly prohibited on September 11 to not only use, but even to take in hands knives, sickles, braids and other cutting tools: signs that determined what should not be done on that day, correlated their use with the tools of the murder of John the Baptist, which was not only considered a sin, but and prophesied punishment to those who violated this prohibition.
5. Even the bread on the day of John the Baptist could not be cut: it was usually broken by hands and ate with vegetables that had any shape, except round. In addition, on September 11, on the day of the holocaust, people's signs promised serious problems to those who were engaged in cooking: even soup and soup were not brewed on this holiday.
6. Although September 11 is considered a Christian holiday, on this day it is not accepted to sing and laugh. In addition, the celebration is held on one of the days of strict fasting, therefore, believers believed, fun in this case is inappropriate.
