Happy Saint Valentine’s Day

From History

This story claims that Valentine was a priest in third-century Rome. Claudius II (Known as Claudius Gothicus, was a Roman emperor from 268 AD to 270 AD) thought single men made better soldiers. Naturally the emperor outlawed young men from marrying. Valentine argued against this order and kept performing marriages. Claudius soon had him executed for going against his commands .

From History

According to a Roman legend, during the third century, a man named Valentinus was imprisoned for his Christian beliefs and sentenced to death by execution. While jailed, Valentinus restored the sight of his jailer’s blind daughter. The night before Valentinus was sentenced to execution, he wrote a note to the jailer’s daughter saying, “From Your Valentine.” Valentinus was executed on Feb. 14, 269 A.D.

From History

Since then 14 February has been the Day of Love, when people send love letters and presents to each other. They don’t sing the cards with their names, but write “Guess Who” or “Your Valentine” .

Cupid is a son of Venus, goddess of love. He could cause people to fall in love by piercing them with one of his magic arrows.

Red rose

The rose was the flower of Venus, the Roman god of love. Red is a colour that stands for strong feelings. That is why the red rose is a flower of love.

Heart

A long time ago, people believed that all the emotions were found in the heart. In later years, they thought only the emotion of love was connected with the heart. The heart is still a symbol of love, and it is also a symbol of Valentine’s Day.
