The Day of Family, Love and Fidelity
There is a beautiful legend about Peter and Phevronia and their great love. These saints help people in love and families. The history of this holiday began on the 13th century when Peter, Grand Duke of Murom, was very ill and nobody could help him. Only a young country girl, whose name was Phevronia,cured him.
Peter promised to marry Phevronia but did not keep the promise and he became ill again. So Peter had nothing to do but to marry Phevronia, but soon he realized that she was his only love.
Peter and Phevroniadied the same time on July 8. In spite of their will the lovers were buried in different temples but the next morning people found them in the same grave. Since then young people pray to Peter and Phevronia for great love and older people ask them for harmony in families. They are Murom saints and their relics are kept in Saint-Trinity monastery in the old town of Murom that is situated on the river Oka. Many people go there to ask Peter and Phevronia for help in love and marriage matters.
In 2008 it became a state holiday in Russia. On the 8th of July people in Russia celebrate The All-Russia Day of Family, Love, and Fidelity. The symbol of this holiday is a daisy because it is a very clean, nice and tender flower. It is a symbol of love, family and fidelity. In Murom there is Peter and Phevronia's sculpture imaged by Nikolai Scherbakov. Many young couples would like to marry exactly on the 8th of July.
There is a tradition to present daisies and flowers.
