Klidonas is
a custom that has its roots in the ancient times, when “klidona”
prevailed.
Klidona means random and ramble actions or words, heard during divine ceremonies, to which people were giving prophetic meaning. Nowadays people have retained that custom in a modern form of an interesting ceremony, saving the love divination. Klidonas takes place the 24th of June (St John’s day), because of the summer turn of the sun the power of which reveals the future! The celebration starts the 23rd of June, when everyone is jumping through big fires. Afterwards, unmarried women are bringing water from the well and empty it in different pots where each of them put sth personal. This is called “rizikari”,and uually is sth valuable to the unmarried woman.These pots are left during the night sealed under the sky. The very same night those women can see in their dreams, their future husband. |
