founder of the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra. In his younger years, wanting to see
the places where Jesus lived, he went to Palestine. Then accepted
tonsure and ass in Athos. A few years later decided to return to
Homeland, and there spread the teachings of Christ. He settled near
from Kiev, lived in an excavated cave. As fouling
followers and disciples, the cave had to break in and
expand. So the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra was laid. Peasants on
Russ worshiped the saint, and also noticed the weather on this day. Special
they attached importance to thunder, and they said, “to Anthony – thunderings”.
If the sky rumbled loudly, they expected a long downpour. If same peals
were deaf – to the silent drizzle. Be sure to notice on
what day was anthony. If thunder thundered on “fasting” days –
Wednesday or Friday, it foreshadowed successful fishing and a rich
catch.
