On April 19, 2018, the national holiday of Eutychius the Quiet and Erema Proletny is celebrated. On this day the Church remembers Saint Eutyches, Archbishop of Constantinople and martyr Jeremiah.

This day received the names “Quiet” and “Flying Day” for the sign by which the grain yield was judged: “The calmer the weather, the higher the harvest. If the wind is strong, you won’t collect seeds.”

According to legend, Eutychius was born in the village of Divine, Phrygian region. His grandfather was a priest. He raised intkbbee grandson in Christian piety. At the age of 12, Eutyches went to Constantinople to study, but chose the path of a monk for himself. He settled in the Amasia monastery and became a monk.

For his life pleasing to God and full of strict fasts, Eutyches was appointed archimandrite. In 552 he became patriarch. A year later, he was sent to the V Ecumenical Council instead of Metropolitan Amasia, due to the latter’s illness. When Patriarch Menus met Eutyches in Constantinople, he predicted to him that he would become the new archbishop. The Apostle Peter asked for the same thing when he appeared to Emperor Justinian.

At the Meeting, the priests of the Orthodox Church anathematized new false teachings. One of them claimed that the body of Jesus Christ was incorrupt even before the Resurrection. The blessed king Justinian succumbed to this heresy. After her condemnation by Bishop Eutyches, the governor brought down anger on him and expelled him from Constantinople.

Eutyches spent 12 years in exile in the Amasia monastery. There God gave him the gift of healing and prophecy. During this time, he performed many miracles and predicted the names of the emperor's successors. In 577 Eutyches returned to Constantinople. He was restored to the rank of archbishop. But he did not remain in office for long. In 582, Saint Eutyches passed away into another world.

Little is known about the martyr Jeremiah of Rome. There is a mention of him by Pope Gregory I. Jeremiah lived in the 3rd century. He suffered martyrdom during the persecution of Christians.

According to signs, if it is a quiet day and a starry night, peas will be born.

Wild ducks settle closer to water bodies - expect a dry summer.

EVTYCHY QUIET AND EREMA PROLETNY
The day of April 19 got its name in honor of the saints - Archbishop Eutychius of Constantinople, who lived in the 6th century, and in honor of the martyr Jeremiah, who died in the 3rd century for the faith. Our ancestors judged the future grain harvest based on the day of Eutyches and Erema. They watched the weather for this purpose. On this day, a good omen was the lack of wind. The peasants said: “If Eutychius is quiet, then there will be a harvest of early grain, and if Erem is beaten by the wind, then he will knock off the ear.”

Usually, apple trees bloom on Eutyches, which were a symbol of girlish beauty and innocence in Russian folklore, so the bride in wedding songs was often compared to a tree in bloom. On this day, the peasants respected the apple tree; they went into the garden to bow to it and paint the trunk to protect it from harmful insects, and support its fragile branches so that they could withstand the future harvest in the summer. On this day it was supposed to eat pickled apples - if the owners had them until spring.
