Martisor – the first day of spring celebration in Romania

It is celebrated every year on March 1st, and his name means “little march” – “Martie”is the name for the month of March in Romanian.

This day, all the women should wear a “Martisor” – a little jewelry with a silky red-white twisted thread tied into a bow (red means winter and white spring), so they will have a lucky and joyful year ahead. Martisor, the symbol of the coming spring, it is worn until the last day of March and then hanged on a tree. The red and white threads symbolize the duality spring/winter, warm/cold, light/darkness.

These days, men give women the Martisor, as a sign of respect, friendship, appreciation, and love. Also, it can be offered with a snowdrop bouquet, another spring symbol in Romania.

Look how students from the Secondary School Remetea, Romania celebrated the first day of spring!
