Kirill Katanik: what not to do on April 3

April 3, 2023

Today, the Orthodox remember Saint Cyril of Catania, a disciple of the Apostle Peter.

Miracles are known to have been performed through his prayers. He also attracted many people to Christianity.

The saint’s name was changed by the people. The fact is that it was previously believed that such an April day in some regions is the last opportunity to appear on a sled in the melting snow.

The holiday is associated with certain rules. For example, this is the perfect time to clean the house, as well as to gather the family at the table.

There are also some restrictions.

What you should not do

On this day you should not change bed linen or wash it. In this case, the dream will be bad.

It is also impossible to quarrel, swear, conflict or even think badly of someone. This can lead to big problems.

For no good reason, you should go out after sunset and look at the sky. If you notice a shooting star on April 3, it will lead to misfortune.
