Usually, peasants on the morning of November 2 went to church to light a candle to Saint Artemy and ask him for healing from a hernia. Many then returned home and began their daily duties. One of them was the mandatory repair of fences located around the yard. It was very important to strengthen the fences on November 2 just before the onset of cold weather, since in winter wolves from the nearest forest came to the house, which was very dangerous for the owners.

In the Orthodox Church, on November 2, the memory of Saint Artemius of Antioch, who lived in the 4th century and is known as a Christian saint, is honored. Tradition says that Artemy himself was originally a military leader during the reign of Emperor Constantine the Great. Through his diligent service he earned the position of governor of Egypt.

Soon after the death of the emperor, Julian the Apostate came to power and initiated strong persecution against supporters of the Christian faith. Artemy, in turn, criticized this policy, for which he was arrested and subjected to numerous tortures.

However, Artemy, even under severe bullying, did not reject his faith and was beheaded. The Antiochian deaconess Arista transported the body of Artemius to Constantinople, where he was buried on the territory of the Church of John the Baptist. In 1073, a particle of the relics of the martyr Artemy ended up in the Kiev Pechersk Lavra, where it remains there to this day. In Rus', Artemy was often prayed for deliverance from accidental death; he was considered the patron saint of the sick and infirm, atamans and military leaders.

There was a rather interesting belief among the people, according to which a child born on November 2 is protected by a wolf mother. Therefore, they said that such a person would be close to the forest animals. It was customary on November 2 to ferment cabbage, which was considered one of the most favorite snacks of peasants.

Holidays on November 2 in different countries and cities of the world

Day of Cultural Worker of Kyrgyzstan

Every year on this day, cultural workers of Kyrgyzstan celebrate their professional holiday. The holiday itself appeared on the day when, in 1926, on November 2, I. Tokobaev’s play “Kyigyluu Kakei” was staged for the first time.

After this, the government of the country decided, in order to develop art and culture, to establish its own holiday, which would be a memory. As for the work itself, it is dramatic, which meets the requirements of realistic art.

Today there are more than 16 thousand workers in the arts and culture sector in the country. In Kyrgyzstan there are 20 professional theatres, 1035 libraries, 45 museums, two universities and 8 secondary specialized educational institutions that train arts and cultural personnel.

When a country celebrates its holiday, all cultural workers receive congratulations from family, friends and work colleagues. The government also expresses its gratitude to them for the work they have contributed to the lives of residents and the country. On this day you can see many interesting shows and programs.

Autumn Grandfathers in Belarus November 2, 2019

The Orthodox celebrated the Autumn Grandfathers in the third week after the Intercession. For almost all holidays there is a calculation algorithm. But, unfortunately, there is no specifically designated day for this celebration, as there is for public holidays.

Nobody followed the folk tradition, so this holiday is usually celebrated on one of the Saturdays from November 1 to 11. Also at this moment, two traditions unite - Catholic and Orthodox.

The holiday itself among the local people is home and family. Only in some regions of the country was it known that people themselves went to visit their relatives at the cemetery. In the spring, it is customary to go to Radonitsa, usually to the cemetery.

But in early November, the dead are only invited to visit them. This is done in order to thank for their patronage and help. Regardless of the place of burial of their ancestors, everyone was commemorated. First we had to wash ourselves in the bathhouse. Leave a clean broom and a bucket of clean water there for the souls of your ancestors.

According to tradition, the number of prepared dishes had to be odd, and not less than five. Each dish was served in even numbers and in pairs. At dinner, all the guests behaved with restraint, and the meal itself lasted quite a long time. It was also necessary to remember all the relatives and their actions for which one could be proud.

All Souls' Day

After All Saints' Day, according to tradition, comes the Day of Remembrance of All the Faithful Departed. This holiday is always celebrated on November 2. Honoring the dead is already a tradition that originated a very long time ago. With this we express respect to all our relatives and friends who are no longer with us. Manifestations of this holiday can be very different. On the one hand, there is fear of the dead and their revenge, and on the other hand, reverence and faith in the protective power of spirits.

The Catholic religion believes that every living person should remember the dead once a year. All Souls Day itself is based on the Catholic dogma of purgatory. People should always remember those who have passed away.

And those who are in purgatory are obliged to cleanse themselves of their sins. So the prayers and repentance of the living can shorten the period of purification. On this holiday, Catholics go to the cemetery with chants or prayers. There they tidy up the graves and decorate them with greenery and flowers. In some countries they even light candles.

Holidays in the folk calendar

Artemyev day

On such a day, people celebrate the memory of Artemy of Antioch. This man was a Christian saint who lived in the 4th century. According to legend, Artemy was a military commander during the reign of Emperor Constantine the Great.

The ruler, for his diligent service, awarded Artemy the post of governor of Egypt. Then Emperor Julian the Apostate comes to power and begins to expel Christians. Artemy could not remain silent and criticized the emperor. For this he was arrested and subjected to painful torture.

Despite the fact that the saint had to suffer greatly, he still did not renounce his faith. At the very end, Artemy was beheaded. Then his body was transported to Constantinople and buried in the Church of John the Baptist. It has long been customary in Rus' to pray to Saint Artemy to protect him from accidental death. This person was also considered a protector against various kinds of diseases - hernia and so on.

By the way, there is a belief that a person born on this day will walk under the protection of a wolf mother. That is, he will be considered close in spirit to birds and forest animals. People also understood that from that day on, wolves began to approach the villages.
