It is September 23rd – the day of the autumnal equinox and the day of remembrance (among Christians) of the holy martyr Iraida.
Also today, believers offer prayers to St. John the Baptist asking for mercy.
Well, people once noticed: if the weather is bad on September 23, the whole autumn will be like that.
Accordingly, if it is cool in your region today, be prepared for the entire autumn period to be the same.
If you notice an abundance of spruce cones, know that folk signs in this case promise an excellent harvest of spring crops, peas, and cucumbers next year.
If you have a lot of rowan, there will be dry weather. On the contrary, if you have little rowan, there will be rainy days.
Have you seen the morning dew? Rejoice, the signs tell you, for a sunny and warm day is coming.
Did you see geese and ducks bathing? A sign that frosts will not come soon.
