These are the temptations: imagination - restrain it by saying to yourself: what I am thinking about at this moment is idle; pride - what I am doing is contrary to the common good; lie - what I am going to say will be against my conscience, and therefore against the truth; finally, the feeling of voluptuousness - suppress it with the consciousness that you are causing irreparable harm to your Divine nature by unbridling your flesh and helping your blind animal nature to become higher than your spiritual essence. (Marcus Aurelius)

On this day, the memory of the biblical prophet Samuel, or Shmuel (that is, “heard by God”) is celebrated. Samuel was born at the most difficult time for the Israelis, and he was destined to guide his people on the true path. Under the weak high priest Elijah, the moral decay of the Israelites reached a critical point. The result of debauchery, spiritual and physical weakness was the defeat of the Philistines, who captured the greatest shrine - the Ark of the Covenant. However, Samuel, having called his fellow tribesmen to solemn repentance, managed to inspire them to expel the Philistines. After this, the revival of the people began. A big role in this was played by the “prophetic hosts” organized by Samuel, whose task was to enlighten people and also awaken patriotism in them. Samuel ruled the people wisely as chief judge, but when he became old, the people, fearing the return of anarchy, began to ask him to appoint a ruler over them. Thus, they rejected the King of heaven, and desired the king of the earth. And then God told Samuel to do as the people asked, but warned them that misfortunes awaited them, the cause of which was the ordinary greed and cruelty of earthly rulers. The Prophet warned the Israelites and asked them to retract their decision, but they were adamant. Samuel appointed Saul as king, but during his lifetime he secretly anointed another, David, to the kingdom, since the first ruler disappointed him. In Rus', the prophet Samuel was considered the intercessor of the stronger sex, they said: “Samoilo the prophet himself prays to God for a man.” Therefore, Samoilov’s day became a kind of men’s holiday: daughters served the father of the family a new shirt in the morning, wives set a rich table so that the owner would get down to business well and well-fed. On Samoilov day they asked for good weather for autumn work. There was very little time left for them - winter was approaching inevitably. On this day, the first winter honey mushrooms were already appearing in the forests, and children with baskets were going for the “harvest.” A frequent dish on the table that day was fried mushrooms and potatoes.

☀ If the moles' holes face north, the winter will be warm.

☀ Since the fall, moles have been dragging a lot of stubble (spikelets) and straw into their holes - for the cold winter.

☀ Field mice are moving closer to the village - towards the cold winter.

☀ Since Samoilin's day, the fur coat has been following the caftan.

Popular name of the day: Samuel, Samoilin day

Born during one of the most difficult periods in the life of the Israelis, Samuel tried to set society on the right path. He awakened patriotism in people. Before his death, Samuel, by the will of the people, was obliged to choose an earthly king. For his part, he believed that the King of Heaven should rule. However, King Saul became his heir.

In Rus', Samuel was revered as the protector of the entire stronger sex. Therefore, Samoilov Day was considered a men's holiday. “Prophet Samoilo himself prays to God for a man.” According to custom, on this day daughters gave their fathers a clean and new shirt, and wives set luxurious tables in the morning so that the owner could start work well-fed and happy.

Traditions and beliefs on September 2

September 2 is popularly called the day of the prophet Samuel, who has always been considered a patron and intercessor before the Lord. This is how the saying appeared: “On Samoilin’s day he prays to God for a man.” At this time, the rooks are preparing to fly away and gradually gather in flocks. The owners begin to prune red and white currants, dig up beets and carrots. As a rule, rowan berries ripened to Samuel, which after the first frosts were very sweet, so it was time to pick the berries. The ancestors noticed that usually on September 2 the weather is clear and sunny, and the first days of autumn, according to old beliefs, are under the protection of the south wind. However, very soon it will be possible to forget about warmth and sunshine, because the cold will come, and with them gloomy days, rain, and fog.

Folk signs of autumn say that they continue to pick apples on Samuel, but they always do it in the morning so that there is dew on them: then the fruits will be well preserved and can last until spring. Folk calendar advises not to wait until the apples fall off, but to pick them a little earlier, otherwise they may be lost taste qualities, and they will begin to rot immediately. On September 2, women traditionally baked pies with cherries, plums, and apples, but the use of flour from the first harvest became a prerequisite. Such bread was supposed to bring people health and well-being to their homes, so that all troubles and bad weather would be avoided. Those who had not yet managed to hide a small bunch of ears of wheat behind the icons did so now, saying special words of prayer, which included praise to God for the generous harvest and a request for blessings for further work.

The peasants, on September 2, prayed for favorable weather, since there was little time left to work in the fields, winter was inevitably approaching.

There was also an activity for children on Samoilov Day - picking mushrooms in the forest. By this time, the first honey mushrooms had already appeared.
