Dragobete is the god of youth in the local Pantheon, patron saint of love

In our country, Dragobete was the day when girls and boys dressed in festive clothes and, if the weather was nice, they would go in groups through meadows and forests, singing and looking for the first spring flowers. On this day, the girls gathered snowdrops, violins and incense, which they put on icons, to keep them up to Sânzâiene, when they threw them into the flowing waters.

A day once eagerly awaited by all young people, they have been largely forgotten, preserved only in the memory of the elders. And in recent years, the local Dragobetele risks being completely forgotten, he being replaced by that Saint Valentine who has nothing to do with Romanian spirituality.

martisor

Romanians celebrate the arrival of spring in a unique way, at the beginning of March. March 1, the first day of spring, is a day of true celebration. The streets are flooded with martisoare and flowers. Martisor is the traditional Romanian holiday that celebrates the arrival of spring. On this occasion, martisoara is offered to ladies and young ladies, a symbol of goodness and well-being.

The history of martisoru dates back to the time of the Getae, and legend has it that women wore coins or pebbles at that time to which there was a custom of adding red and white woolen threads. The red color, given by fire, blood and sun, was attributed to life, so to women. Instead, the white color, given by the clarity of the waters, the white of the clouds, was specific to the man's wisdom. In fact, the string of martisoru expresses the inseparable interweaving of the two principles as a permanent movement of matter. It signifies the exchange of vital forces that give birth to life, the constant cycle of nature. The colors white and red have remained to this day as a symbol of the sexes, they are also found at the wedding and funeral tree.

The customs of Mărţişor were for the parents to tie a coin around their children 'necks or hands and to offer the young people brightly colored beads strung on a chain. This gesture meant strength and luck, and Martisor usually set at dawn until the sun appeared. Romanian traditions say that March 1 is the first day of the year when the god Mars and his power were celebrated through the "Matronalia" holiday. The martisoaras were made of white and red hemp or wool yarns, tied in the form of the number 8 on which gold and silver coins hung. The custom says that the martisoare must be kept for 9-12 days and then hung on a flowering tree to bring good luck and well-being to the one who wore it. In the Dobrogea area, the Romanian traditions say that the martisoru must be worn until the storks come and then be thrown to the sky. In Transylvania, the martisoru is hung on the gate, windows or horns of animals to remove evil and evil eye. The Romanian traditions from the Transylvanian villages give color to life and give to the legend of Mărţişor the marking of the transition between the end of winter, the cold season and the coming of spring.

The legend of the martisoara begins when the Sun embodied in a handsome man descends to earth to dance the dance in the villages. A dragon kidnapped him and locked him in a palace cellar. No one dared to save the Sun. A brave young man traveled for 3 seasons (summer, autumn and winter) until he found the castle and fought the dragon for many days until he managed to defeat it. The sun was set and the wounded young man's blood fell on the snow, turning it into snowdrops, messengers of spring. The brave young man died happy to see that his life had served such a noble purpose: the coming of spring. The history of martisoru also says that since then it has been customary for people to offer ladies and gentlemen amulets: a white thread woven with a red one. The literary meaning of martisoru is "little March". A smaller March to wear on our chests so that winter can be forgotten and the new season begins.
