What is the essence of the holiday
The prophet Ezekiel is one of the “great prophets”. The saint was born around 622 BC in Judea. He worked as a priest and was sent to Babylon with the first caravan of captives in 527 BC. After visions were given to the saint from God, Ezekiel became a prophet in 592 BC. The saint read sermons to people, and later became the author of an Old Testament book. The prophet was accused of dishonor and was killed by one of the rulers.
The Monk Onufry of the Caves lived in Kyiv in the 12th century. The saint was a monk of the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra, he lived in the Near Caves, where his relics are now.
On the day of memory of Onufry, it was customary to prepare bins and places for grain in barns, sow rye and harvest apples.
The main signs of August 3
If the day is windy, winter is expected to be cold and long. And a cold night means an early and cold winter. Rain with a thunderstorm – autumn will be rainy and damp, and fog – to warm autumn weather. Fog spreads below – to warm weather. Many acorns on oak trees – the year will be fruitful.
What not to do today
Quarrel, swear, talk loudly. It is hard to work at home and in the garden. Drink alcohol, succumb to bad habits. Borrow and borrow money.
