Postcards St. Natalia's Day September 8. Tomorrow we celebrate a wonderful, magical and wonderful Christian holiday - St. Natalia's Day! Congratulations on the birthday of Natalia
Once this beautiful name was very popular and stood in the first place next to a name like Elena. Today, however, it is significantly losing ground, which is certainly regrettable. Few people think about his translation, which sounds very delicious. Natalya's day is celebrated on September 8, the history of this holiday is unusual, but more on that later. So, Natalya (or Natalia) is a Russian name that has Latin roots from natalis (native), and was formed back in the days of the beginning of the revival of Christianity. The modern version of the meaning of the name is "blessed, Christmas, born on Christmas." On Natalya's Day (September 8), her pious husband Adrian is also usually remembered. Their life story is quite interesting.
Natalya's day September 8: photo of the saint and the history of holiness
The couple lived around the beginning of the fourth century in the city of Nicodemia (Bethynian region, Andrian was a real pagan and was in the official service of the emperor Makimian Galerius himself (reign from 305 to 311), who was a fierce persecutor of Christians. Adrian's wife, Natalia, was Not far from their city in a cave, several dozen Christians were hiding from Roman soldiers, who were then caught, cruelly tortured and sacrificed to the pagan gods.
Holy martyrs
Adrian witnessed all these terrible tortures. He was surprised at how great patience and with a smile on their lips the captives endured all the abuse and torture. Under this impression, Adrian asked them about God. And during this conversation, the grace of God touched his kind soul, and suddenly he realized the divine truth. Then Adrian told the scribes to write down his name next to these Christian martyrs, because he also wants to become one of them and is also ready to die for Christ. Then the guards threw him into the dungeon and put him in chains. At that time he was 28 years old.
Natalia - martyr
When Natalia learned this news about her husband, she was filled with joy and immediately hurried to him in prison, began to kiss his chains, encourage him and talk about eternal bliss in the Kingdom of Heaven. She also asked him, when he appeared before the Lord, to beg Him that she would also have the same great fate, so that later in blissful eternity they would never be separated.
When the death sentence was announced to the prisoners, Adrian was sent home so that he would notify his wife of this. Natalia, seeing her husband returning home, was frightened, thought that he had renounced Christ and did not open the door of the house for him. Then he again returned to the executioners, who took him and other Christians out and put him to a terrible martyr's death. But before that, they broke their arms and legs. Saint Adrian died along with other Christian martyrs in 304.
Saint Adrian
He joyfully gave his soul to his Lord. When soon their bodies began to be burned in a special furnace, it went out, a strong thunderstorm began and lightning flashed, which, as retribution for the sinners, killed several executioners.
Then, since Natalya was young, rich and beautiful, the commander wanted to marry her. She could not imagine this and began to pray for death. Once in a dream, her husband Adrian appeared to her, who warned her that she would soon be with him. After some time, she died on the coffin of her husband. With her mental suffering, she also deserved a martyr's crown.
On Natalya's Day, September 8 (August 26), her husband, the faithful Adrian, is also honored. The holy relics of Natalia are in Milan in the Basilica.
Now Orthodox people pray to these martyrs for a happy marriage. It was with this icon that Catherine II blessed her son for marriage.
Signs
Since September 8 is Natalya's day, signs on this day are especially revered, because in the old days the day of Adrian and Natalya was also called the day of Fescue and, according to tradition, they began to mow oats on this day, and then the housewives cooked jelly from it and baked pancakes. Oatmeal was kneaded with sour milk or water with honey, and at the same time the following words were sentenced: “Natalya carries an oatmeal pancake, and Adrian carries oatmeal in a pot.”
Then the housewives treated those workers who brought the first sheaf of oats with these dishes. He was placed in the huts under the images. And then, having tasted the treats, the workers got up and, having thanked the owners, went to work in the field.
According to signs, if on Natalya's day on September 8 the morning was cold, then one would expect the onset of early winter. If there is no opal and birch, one must also prepare for a harsh winter. Or if the crows do not sit with their heads in one direction, the weather will be calm that day, and if they sit close to the trunk of a tree and their heads are in the same direction, one must expect windy weather.
On Natalya's day (September 8), the morning can be very cool, because by that time the days had already decreased by about three hours. The people said that Peter and Paul (July 12) reduced the hour, the prophet Elijah (August 2) dragged two, but Andrian and Natalya dragged three.

Their life story is quite interesting.
Natalya's day September 8: photo of the saint and the history of holiness
This married couple lived at the beginning of the fourth century in Asia Minor in the great and populous city of Nicomedia, which was on the shores of the Sea of Marmara. Natalia was married to a very wealthy young man, he held a prestigious position in the Judicial Chamber, and his name was Adrian. Andrian was twenty-eight years old, and he worshiped idols - visited cathedrals and made sacrifices to pagan deities. However, Natalya, in turn, secretly confessed Christianity. A year after they got married, Christian believers began to be oppressed in Nicodemia, and this city was visited by Tsar Maximian Galerius (305-311), who fiercely despises the Christian faith. After that, a real hunt was announced for Christian believers. And on top of everything else, they promised to give a monetary reward to those who would give out to Christians. Christian believers were handed over, betrayed, and public executions were carried out on them. And during one of these slanders, the punishers arrested more than twenty people of the Christian faith, who were hiding in the caves of Nicodemia.
Holy martyrs
These people were tortured and tormented, and ordered to make sacrifices to idols, but the Christians did not agree. After the prisoners were brought to the Judicial Chamber, to begin interrogation. Andrian, Natalia's husband, headed the judicial chamber. Andrian watched in amazement with what steadfastness and courage these people endured all the torments for their religion. And Andrian asked the Christians what reward awaits them from the true Lord for these sufferings? And the captives answered: This reward is beyond description, and the mind of man cannot understand it. And suddenly, as if the Holy Spirit overshadowed Adrian, and then he told his workers to formalize him as a person of the Christian faith, who is also not afraid to die for Jesus. Such an incident was immediately reported to the king, who immediately ordered Andrian to be brought. The Emperor asked if he had lost his mind? Andrian said that he had not lost, but rather enlightened.
Natalia - martyr
After that, the king gave the order to put shackles on Andrian and put him in prison. When this was told to Natalya, her heart was filled with deep happiness from the realization that her husband had turned to Christ, and now a suffering wreath was laid on Adrian. Natalya immediately went to her husband in prison and began to kiss his hands and support her husband with a story about eternal joy and asked him that when he saw the Almighty in front of him, he would ask Him to send her the same fate. In the afternoon, when the Monk Natalia was at home, under the responsibility of other Christian sufferers, Adrian was allowed to go home and tell his wife when the execution would take place. Saint Natalia fearfully thought that her husband had broken down and betrayed Christ, and therefore Adrian was released from prison. And therefore, Saint Natalia did not want to open the door for him, but her husband was able to convince her that he was released only so that he would tell her about the day of his execution. When the time of execution came, Christian believers began to be taken out of the dungeon. They had to go through terrible mortal torment - they had to break all their arms and legs at the forge. Saint Natalia herself approached the executioners and asked that Andrian be the first to be taken to the execution. Natalya was worried that Andrian would not stand it during the execution of the rest of the Christians and would renounce Christ. However, the righteous Andrian endured, and then his righteous wife took him to the smithy.
Saint Adrian
After the anvil, the mutilated bodies of the righteous sufferers were ordered to be set on fire, but suddenly it began to rain, and the lit stove for the Christian martyrs was immediately extinguished, and the punishers who were near the stove were struck by lightning. The Monk Natalya remained by her husband's side until the very end, until Adrian gave his soul to the Almighty. After that, Natalya took Andrian's hand and brought it home. The young widow prayed that her husband would read her first prayer before the Almighty so that she could not be forcibly married to a non-believer. But after a short time, the governor of the thousandth platoon asked the emperor to marry the rich and beautiful widow Natalya, but Natalya fled to Byzantium. In Byzantium, she dreamed of her husband, who told her that the Lord would call her soon. And the Almighty actually had mercy, after she experienced such painful spiritual torments, in a Byzantine house, Saint Natalia died while sleeping near the coffin of her husband, whose corpse was brought by Christian believers. The Lord granted the Monk Natalia a non-violent, suffering crown, and she followed her husband to Heavenly Paradise. And her remains are now kept in Milan in the church of St. Lawrence, and the remains of her holy husband in Rome, in the cathedral built in his honor. On the day of memory of Natalia on September 8 (August 26), her holy husband Adrian is also mentioned. In the modern world, Christian believers give Natalia and Andrian prayer petitions for family happiness. It is known that Empress Catherine II blessed her heir with such a holy face for marriage.
The holy face of God's servant Natalia, which helps
On the miraculous face is imprinted the righteous Natalya, she experienced severe internal torment. Saint Natalia is constantly portrayed in a white martyr's stole. In one hand of the Saint is a cross, which personifies the self-sacrifice of the righteous. In some cases, Saint Natalia is depicted holding a parchment in her other hand, or she presses it to her chest. The attire of the Christian martyr is constantly depicted in red tones, as a symbol of unbending faith and the torment experienced in her honor.
Very rare is the holy image of the Great Martyr Natalya, in which she is depicted in full growth.
In almost all Christian churches, the divine face of the “Great Martyr Natalia” is kept; this face is of great importance for married couples. Saint Natalia endured great torment during the execution of her husband. Natalya did not leave her husband for a minute; she was by his side both mentally and materially. She was present during the execution and left only when her husband gave his soul to God.
In what cases are the prayers of St. Natalia recited:
about giving happiness in the family;
about harmony and fidelity in the family union;
about husbands who are taken into custody or are in prison.
Recommend to all girls named Natalia often prays to his protector for protection and grace. It is also advised to purchase a miraculous icon home, or go to the temple and pray before the face of the Saint. On the day of memory of the righteous Natalya, you need to light a candle near her face and say a prayer. To do this, it is advised to say the prayer of St. Natalia of Nicomedia. Prayers are also offered to Natalia and Andrian for husbands who have got into any kind of trouble or have faced obstacles in the legal sphere of life. The first prayer to the great martyrs sounds like this: “Oh, holy martyrs Adrian and Natalia! Listen to our request, servants of God ... ". The second prayer: "Oh, God's servant Natalya, glorified by a glorious deed on earth ...". Troparion, tone 4: “Thy great martyrs, the Most High, in their torment are wreaths ...”. Kontakion, tone 4: "Spouses of God-wise holy words ...". Prayer request: "Ask the Almighty for me, holy saint of the Lord (name) ...". Prayer to the Great Martyrs Adrian and Natalia for family happiness: "Oh, divine couple, holy messengers of the Lord, Adrian and Natalia ...".
Signs
Because the eighth of September is considered the day of memory of Natalia, then special importance is attached to the signs on such a day, because in ancient times the day of memory of Adrian and Natalia was popularly named Ovsyanitsa and, according to the established custom, harvesting of oats began from this day, and then women from oats made jelly and baked pancakes. The dough was made from sour sour milk or from water with honey, and during kneading they said the following phrase: “Natalia is carrying oatmeal pancakes, and Adrian is in a pot of dough.” Then, with such treats, women honored those collective farmers who brought the very first bunch of oats. It was placed in near the home iconostasis under the icons. And then, having tasted such gifts, the guests left and thanked the hostesses, and returned to work in the fields. Our ancestors noted that if there were frosts in the morning on September 8, then winter would be early. They also observed the leaves of oak and birch, when there are still leaves on them, it means that a very cold winter should have been expected. And also when the crows on the branches sit with their heads not turned in one direction, then this day promises to be calm, and if they cling to the tree trunk and their heads are turned in one direction, then the day will be windy, they sit close to the tree trunk. On Natalya's day (September 8) it is almost always quite cold in the morning, because at this time the day has already decreased by about three hours. In ancient times, they said that Peter and Paul (July 12) reduced by an hour, the seer Ilya (August 2) reduced by two, and as for Andrian and Natalia, they reduced by three.
Natalya's day - September 8: congratulations
Because Christian believers like any kind of holidays and celebrations, they also celebrate such a holiday, since ancient times, with special reverence. And, no doubt, that every bearer of this beautiful name expects wishes on Natalya's memory day on September 8th. Congratulations can be expressed in different forms, but they are best designed in the form of beautiful and informative verses. Quite remarkable stanzas were dedicated by one of Natasha's poets: "And Natalya's day is so dear to me, let Tatyana not be offended ...". With such a beautiful name, poets have their own stories. Here, for example, Pushkin's wife, while still in the box in night clothes, was waiting for gifts from early morning. Her relatives and friends brought gifts to her one after another: some a small box with a necklace, some a bonbonniere with chocolate sweets, and some even a whole tray with greeting cards. Leo Tolstoy also conveyed the charming face of Natalia in his great creation "War and Peace". And, like a common name, but how much is hidden in it - the head is spinning!
On September 8, 2018, on Natalya's Day, it is worth congratulating all women who bear the name Natalya. The Russian name has Latin roots, and is translated as "native". The modern translation of the name is "blessed, Christmas, born on Christmas." In addition to Saint Natalia, on September 8, Adrian, who was her husband, is also remembered.
Saint Natalia and Adrian went down in history as deep-believing Christians.
Adrian, having converted to Christianity, gave his life for faith in Christ.
Natalya, having learned about the choice of her husband, supported him in every possible way.
Therefore, the couple went down in history as an example of understanding and love in family life.
Today, Natalia and Andrian pray at the holy face, asking for a happy marriage.

Folk signs on Natalya's day September 8
On Natalya's day, September 8, people pay special attention to signs, because today is considered the day of Ovsyanitsa - the beginning of mowing oats. From the first harvest, as a rule, housewives prepared jelly and pancakes.
Oatmeal was mixed with sour milk or water with honey, and this dish was treated to those who brought the first sheaf of oats into the house. This sheaf was placed near the icon, they tasted the treat, and again went to the field to harvest.
If today's morning is cold, it's worth waiting for early winter. If the sitting crows look in different directions, the weather will be calm that day, but if the birds are close to the tree trunk and directed in one direction, you should be afraid of the wind.

However, he was seized and, through cruel torture, they tried to force him to refuse it. Natalia was next to her husband until his death, encouraged, supported and strengthened his holy faith in every possible way.
