History of St. Valentine's Day

There are varying opinions as to the origin of Valentine’s Day. Some experts state that it originated from St.Valentine, a Roman who was martyred for refusing to give up Christianity. He died on the February 14, 269 A.D., the same day that had been devoted to love lotteries. In 496 A.D. Pope Gelasius set aside February 14 to honour St.Valentine.

Gradually, February 14 became the date for exchanging love messages and St.Valentine

became the patron of lovers. The date was

marked by sending poems and simple gifts.

Цветы – как правило, на этот праздник принято дарить розы, от количества и цвета которых зависит значение подарка. Все знают, к примеру, что красная роза - это символ любви и страсти, но немногие слышали о том, что сочетание в одном букете красных и белых роз означает союз.

Словарик символики роз:

• Красные розы - любовь, а также уважение и храбрость.
• Розовые бутоны – красота, молодость, чистота.

• Одна единственная роза – простодушие. Распустившаяся роза – «Я тебя люблю» или «Я все еще тебя люблю».
• Букет распустившихся роз – благодарность .

• Белые розы – «Ты божественна». Также означают смирение, молчание, тайну, невинность и чистоту.
• Белые и красные розы вместе, а также белые розы с розовыми краями – единство, союз.
• Темно-розовые – благодарность и признание, светло-розовые – восхищение и симпатию.
• Желтые розы – ревность. В сочетании с красными – веселье, счастье.
• Коралловые или оранжевые розы – желание, рвение.

• Розы бледных оттенков – дружба.
• Две розы, стебли которых тесно связаны, как бы образуя один – помолвка, скорый брак.

• Увядшие белые розы – «Ты не производишь впечатления»

• Листья роз – надежда.
