Ask the Russian film "The Trick of Fate" to reflect at least ten Russian festivals.

65438+10.7 is Christmas in Russia, while 65438+10.4 is New Year in Russia. 65438+ 10/9 is also an important folk festival-the baptism of Jesus. People think that the spring water on this day has the effect of treating diseases. Many people swim in spite of the cold and don't get sick this winter. On this day, most people are used to going to church to get holy water. The water taken on June 9, 65438+10/October 65438 is not bad all year round. Most residents in Russia believe in the Orthodox Church, accounting for about 70% of the total population, but there are also people who believe in other religions and atheists in Russia, so the national holiday is still at 65438+ 10/.

People make preparations for the New Year in advance. In small villages and towns, the local government decorated the central square with real Christmas trees, and colorful lanterns appeared on the tallest building. In big cities, real Christmas trees and artificial Christmas trees can be seen everywhere. In Moscow, shops and restaurants must be dressed up before the new year, or they will be fined. City management authorities are responsible for street lighting and organizing outdoor recreational activities during festivals.

In Russia, it is eclipsed without gifts. Although it is generally acknowledged that people give money to relatives in recent years, most people buy gifts. Everyone, from babies to great-grandmothers, should get presents. There are all kinds of gifts, from squeaky toys to comfortable slippers. According to the custom, on the morning of June 65438+ 10/day, children should look for their own gifts under the Christmas tree, but they usually pester their parents to give gifts in advance. In this way, adults can relax, sit down and chat with relatives and friends, while children can play with new toys. If you want to give the children an unforgettable holiday, you can find a special company. The characters in the New Year's fairy tales, the snowman and the snow girl, will go home. The old snowman will take out the gifts ordered by his parents from his big pocket, while the snow girl will play with the children. Company leaders asked customers not to let the ice-snow old man and his master drink, because they would go to many homes to pay New Year greetings on this day. If everyone buys him a drink, the consequences will be unimaginable. However, it is still possible to invite Snow Old Man and Snow Girl to have a holiday dinner together. Nowadays, the content of holiday meals is relatively reduced, and people try not to overeat. However, you can still see some cold dishes on the traditional family holiday table, including the famous Russian salad with mayonnaise sauce, frozen meat, horseradish fish, homemade pickled red fish, pickled mushrooms, sliced bread with red fish eggs and so on. Hot dishes are the characteristics of each family. Meat, fish and poultry always have to be put in the oven whole or in large pieces, so the holiday dinner is more grand. Russia has had such a saying since ancient times, "big fish and big meat are in a good mood." In recent years, the China Zodiac has appeared on the table of Russians. If it's the Year of the Rooster, most people won't have chickens on their dining tables.

The activities of New Year, Russian New Year and Christmas are intertwined, making the festival more lively and festive. Before the arrival of the new year, people began to get busy and immerse themselves in the festive atmosphere. Every household should clean up, buy exquisite food, decorate new year's fir trees, and prepare the whole family to get together and welcome the new year happily. The streets are full of colorful Christmas trees. The tree is covered with various decorations, including ribbons, colored lights and various small gifts.

During the New Year, it has become a tradition for many cities to hold various "city nights". Place Chinese fir trees in the central square of the city and organize mass celebrations. On New Year's Eve, fireworks or bonfires will be set off in many places. When the Kremlin bell rings on TV and the radio rings 12, the announcer congratulates the people of the whole country on the New Year. At this point, everyone stopped all activities, shouted "Hula Dance", congratulated each other at the same time, and sat down to enjoy drinking. According to the custom, you have to drink champagne before you can drink other wines and eat New Year's Eve. After dinner, people sit around and watch special programs prepared by TV stations to welcome the New Year, or hold various entertainment activities, such as dancing and singing. Some young people even went to the streets to party until dawn. There is a traditional Russian proverb that "people who are unhappy in the New Year will have a bad year". So, everyone played all night.

Since ancient times, young girls have divined marriage during this period. The Orthodox Church condemns the act of divining the future, but it is allowed during Christmas and baptism, so the custom of divining fate in winter is very popular in Russia. The most famous divination method is the ring in the water. You need to take an ordinary flat cup without any pattern, fill it with water, carefully put someone else's wedding ring in the middle, and then look at the middle of the ring. After a while, the girl will see her fiance. If you eat something salty before going to bed and ask him to appear, you can still see your future husband in your dream. The simplest method of divination is to use snow: go outdoors at night, lie on the snow, then get up and leave, and never look back. Look at this position in the morning: if the marks on the snow are all lines, then the husband will be a rude and hasty person; If the imprint is flat, then the husband will be a gentle and kind person; If the imprint is deep, then you will get married more than once; If the imprint is covered up, then you won't get married in the near future.

These are just the surface to welcome the new year. Russians are used to associating winter festivals with magic, magic and fairy tales since childhood. Everyone expects something unusual, but it must be something very good. Everything that happened during the festival received special attention. People often choose to have sex on New Year's Eve.
