Today, Orthodox believers celebrate the day of remembrance of two saints with the same names: Hilarion the Great and Hilarion of Pskov.
On Illarion's Day it was customary to observe precipitation, which was used to judge the upcoming weather.

Today's name day is celebrated by Aza, Alexander, Alexey, Anatoly, Arkady, Vasily, Vladimir, Denis, Dmitry, Zakhar, Ivan, Ilarion, Konstantin, Marfa, Nikolay, Pavel, Pelageya, Sergey, Fedor, Julian, Yakov.
Today's birthday boys and girls have one distinctive feature: having been kissed by luck since birth, they always find themselves in the right place at the right time.
These people sincerely want to change the world for the better, and therefore constantly improve themselves.
Weather signs
It was believed that from Illarion's day the ground would start to be covered with snow. That is why the upcoming weather was judged by the snow.
Warm and sunny weather promised the same weather for the whole coming week. A clear and frosty day promised the opposite.
If on this day the snow fell on the damp ground and did not melt, the first snowdrops will bloom early in the spring. And if the snow fell on already frozen ground, the following year the grain will grow.
