St Callixt's Day

Winter dayFrom October 14 - the day of St. Callixtus - you can hunt a squirrel, because she finally puts on a winter fur coat.

In ancient times, this event was marked by sacrifices and was called “Winter Day” (in the sense of “the first winter day”), but now it is just a day off, intended for the first time. Well, let's say to start preparing for Christmas.

Finns do everything very carefully and slowly.
