St. Nicholas Day December 19

And December 19 is the day when the purest light, filled with many precious virtues, the soul of the saint passed from this earthly life to heavenly. The Orthodox Church usually glorifies this day, because

“The death of His saints is honorable before the Lord” (Ps. 115: 6).

Celebrating St. Day Nicholas in European countries occurs according to the tradition of the Catholic Church on December 6th.

Interesting fact

This holiday began in Germany in the 10th century, when students of the parish school of the Cologne Cathedral received gifts on this day. The townspeople really liked this idea and turned into a tradition: very soon the little residents began to hang out their socks and put out their shoes so that Santa Claus could put a gift in them.

Fate

Little Nikolasha begins to walk and talk early, and grows up to be a positive, smiling and non-conflict boy who loves to travel and learn something new. He asks his parents a thousand “whys” a day. He tries not to quarrel with the guys, even if there is a reason for a quarrel, he can get along with even the most gloomy and unfriendly child. Does not pay attention to other people's shortcomings and bad behavior. He likes to be praised often. Parents and adults should not be afraid to over-praise Nikolasha; praise will not spoil him, but will improve him. Without praise, Nikolai will grow up to be a withdrawn and insecure child.

During his school years, Nikolai becomes more self-confident, more purposeful, more tactful, friendlier, is not afraid of hard and monotonous work, and will always protect the weak and offended. Thanks to these wonderful character traits, many guys, even older than him, strive to be friends with Nikolai. Nikolai can listen to his interlocutor without interrupting, and will give him effective advice. Nikolai can help an unpleasant and deceitful person out of trouble, but he will never let him into his social circle. At school, with natural curiosity, he studies well, listens carefully to teachers, and completes all assignments. Exact sciences are especially easy for him.

The adult Nikolai has charisma and knows how to please people who are drawn to him. He is friendly with everyone, can support any topic, looks at the world positively, and learns something new until his old age. There are always many friends around him, including close friends. Its disadvantage can be called excessive demands on others. He strives to see them as ideal and does not want to accept the fact that not everyone can meet his requirements. To my honor, Nikolai will not leave his friend in trouble even for his own benefit. True, this friend should be a close person.

Characteristics of the birthday boy Nikolai:

From the ancient Greek language - winner of nations - Nikola, Mikola. In the old days, schismatics vehemently rejected the Greek name Nicholas as “dog”, because of the ending “barking.” Therefore, the only correct form was considered to be Nikola, Cola. Looking at the handsome, cheerful, sexy Nikolay, I just want to sing to him “Kolya, Kolya, Nikolay, stay at home - don’t go out!”

But Kolya - even if you sing, even if you scold, even if you close the door - he will still run away with a pretty girl. And if he also likes her, then in a day or two she will become his legal wife. After all, Kolya is terribly in love, and also very jealous. However, he can still be forgiven a lot. It literally works day and night. During the day he gives his best at work, and in the evening he improves his home. If he is a simple employee, then with his colleagues he is a “good guy”.

Well, if he is the boss, then he behaves like an “appanage princeling.” In this case, if one of his subordinates sees him in anger, he runs far away from his eyes. However, this situation usually does not last long. After all, Nikolai is essentially balanced, easy-going, and friendly. At home (in the family) Nikolai is an exemplary, caring husband and father.

He simply adores his children. Allows them to do whatever they want. But Nikolai himself should limit some things, in particular, excessive alcohol consumption.

Nikolai views himself as the center of action, with relatively little sense of other forces above and below him. He overestimates his importance in the world, and it seems to him that everything around him does not happen by itself, organically unfolding and guided by forces that have nothing to do with the implementation of human plans, but must certainly be done by some reasonable will.

Health

Nikolai is careless about his health, abusing bad habits, so in his old age he develops problems with his lungs and heart. Nikolai is often drawn to alcohol, which will be very difficult for him to get rid of. Nikolai should exercise, stick to a diet and not abuse alcohol, not smoke, get a good night's sleep and undergo medical examination.

Love

Nikolai is not picky about the female sex; he can even fall in love with an ugly-looking woman. For him, the main thing is intelligence, emotional attraction and love chemistry. The gossip of those around him does not bother him. He likes women who are a little plump and tender, and avoids rude and aggressive ones. Nikolai can be called a womanizer, but, unlike them, he falls in love with a woman for a long time and does not cheat on her while they are together. Having fallen madly in love with a woman, he may propose marriage to her already on the second date.
