The real story of Valentine's Day comes on Legend of St.
Valentine. The history of this Day – and the story of its patron saint – is
shrouded in mystery. We all know that February has long been celebrated as a
month of romance and love, and that Day of St. Valentine's, as we
know it today, contains vestiges of both Christian and ancient Roman tradition.
What is Valentine's Day celebrated for?
14th February as a Valentine's
Day. Every year on 14th February people celebrate this
day by sending messages of love, romance, care and affection to
partners, family and friends. Couples send Valentine's Day cards
and flowers and spend special time together to honor their love, care and
feelings for each other.
February 14th is celebrated as St. Valentine's Day in various Christian
countries; it has, for example, the rank of 'commemoration' in the calendar
of saints in the Anglican Communion.
The point of origins of Valentine's Day is murky. We
all know that the ancient Romans celebrated the feast of Lupercalia, a spring the festival, on the 15th of February. With the introduction of
Christianity, the day moved to the 14th of February - the saint day
that celebrated several early Christian martyrs named Valentine.
WHO declared Valentine's Day February 14?
Pope Gelasius declared February 14th as a
day of St. Valentine's Day as Valentine's Day: A Day of Romance and love.
I love your warm smile and your kind,
thoughtful way, love the joy that you
bring to my life every day
Happy Valentine's Day
