Traditions

Posted by ionbarbu Posted on: 04/04/08

Traditions

At the end of the year, the period between November and December, a lot of folkloric traditions are celebrated, as well as magical rituals and customs. We decided to rediscover their charm and origins on the night of 29 of November.

We started with the story of St Andrew, one of Jesus Christ's disciples who came in Dobrogea, on Romanian land, to spread Christianity. St Andrew is celebrated on the 30th of November. It is said that werewolves are haunting the Earth on that night and people, to protect from them, put garlic at windows and doors. They also plant grain to see how their luck in the next year will be, depending on how the grain grows.
