Popular superstitions dictate that one should exercise caution on the thirteenth day of March, as it is believed to be a day of ill-omen. To avoid any potential misfortune, it is prudent to abstain from any activities that may be deemed as inauspicious.

March 13 is the National Day of Vasily Kapelnik and the Day of the Memorial Church of Saint Basil the Decapolite.

What you should not do:

You cannot leave the house without praying. Do not pour water into a fire to put it out. It is impossible, after combing the hair, to pick it up from the comb and throw it into the fire – this can torture a migraine. You can’t talk loudly while lighting a fire, or sort things out – trouble will happen. You can’t promise something while standing by the fire – you still won’t be able to keep it, no matter how hard you try. You can’t be greedy, otherwise luck will go away. I can’t sweep. A broom can sweep happiness, prosperity and health out of the house. But you can wash the floors. You can’t be lazy. It is desirable to spend today extremely productively, working tirelessly.

Panels:

Rain that day – to a wet summer. If the snow on the roofs has already melted, the thaw will soon begin. Cloudy weather – expect frosts at night. Sunny weather – for a fertile year. On Vasily, the Sun in circles – to the harvest. Long icicles – long linen. Long icicles – for a long spring. If the thawed patches around the tree have steep edges, the spring will be steep, the canopies – the spring will be long. Expressed drops – to a large harvest in the summer. The towers have arrived – soon the snow will melt, but the summer will be rainy. Circles around the sun – for a fruitful year and a good bite in August-September. A southerly wind blows with a resounding drop – to a good harvest and good fishing. Cloudy during the day, freezing at night. In prolonged bad weather the sparrows would suddenly chirp – expect this to get better. Vasily the dropper gives drops, there will be drops – by the happy new year.
