Jurģi

Today, the Baltics celebrate Jurģi, the spring festival which coincides with the Catholic Saint George's Day. There are many rituals during Jurģi, the best known is that of moving. Stone or straw from the old site is carried away and scattered in the new living place, so that the person leaving will not be cursed by any spell. #mythology #myth #legend #calendar #April 23 #jurgi #littuania
