Cum ții sărbătorile în funcție de cruce: roșie, neagră și albastră

In the Orthodox calendar, holidays are marked by different crosses, each indicating their significance and the rules to follow. The red cross denotes important feasts, while the black cross indicates lesser saints. The blue cross is used for specific celebrations, particularly related to the Virgin Mary, with meanings varying by calendar. On red cross days, believers are encouraged to attend church and refrain from work, while black cross days are less strict. Understanding these symbols helps the faithful recognize the importance of each day and the corresponding liturgical practices.
