On December 21, believers celebrate the memory of Saint Anthusa of Rome.
Anfisa was revered by the people as the patroness of crafts, so she was often called the Needlewoman.
Today marks the winter solstice, the longest night of the year. That's why December 21 was associated with the beginning of a new life: from that day on, the day gradually began to lengthen.
Name day December 21
Today, Anfisa, Victoria, Kirill and Sergey celebrate their angel day.
Those born on December 21 are characterized by patience and consistency in their actions, they are purposeful and ambitious, but at the same time they can suffer from low self-esteem.
Today's birthday people may engage in introspection, which is why they often get hung up on their own problems.
Weather signs
The weather on December 21 was used to judge what the New Year would be like:
- sunny weather promised a frosty end to the year;
- Cloudy weather promised a thaw on December 31.
There was a sign associated with spiders. If on this day the insects actively began to weave webs, then in 9 days they expected severe frosts to come.
