Valentine's Day (All Lovers' Day)

All Lovers' DayOfficially, the Day of Lovers has existed for more than 16 centuries, but the holidays of Love have been known since ancient pagan cultures. In mid-February, the Romans celebrated Lupercalia, a festival of eroticism in honor of the goddess of love Juno Februata.

Mass Valentine's Day is celebrated since the 13th century in Western Europe, since the 18th century in the countries of southern and northern America.

This is a real holiday of the soul when they send "valentine cards" - cards and gifts to everyone they love. On this day, they honor the most beloved person in their life. In addition, the couples give each other roses as a symbol of love, sweet hearts and other souvenirs depicting hearts, kissing birds and, of course, the recognized symbol of Valentine's Day - the little winged angel Cupid.
