Today, Orthodox believers honor the memory of three holy martyrs: Prov, Tarakh and Andronicus.
People call October 25 Andron the Stargazer, since it was customary to watch the stars in the sky until midnight.
Observing the sky helped to understand what kind of weather would set in in the coming days.
Name day October 25
Today, the following people celebrate their name day: Alexander, Bogdan, Denis, Dominika, Ivan, Kuzma, Makar, Maximilian, Martin, Nikolai, Taras and Fedot.
Those born on October 25 are Scorpios according to the zodiac sign. These are bright, sometimes eccentric personalities, for whom material rather than spiritual benefits are important first and foremost.
Their self-sufficiency often develops into pride and arrogance, but today's birthday people are respected for their ability to rise from the ashes even after the collapse of ideals.
Weather signs
Observations of the heavenly bodies today helped to get an idea of what the harvest will be like and what kind of weather is expected in the coming days.
For example, dim stars promised warm weather, while bright ones, on the contrary, promised a cold snap. A falling star said that windy weather was ahead, and the next year would be dry.
