To avoid having trouble on Tuesday, you need to know the prohibitions of the day.

On St. Mark’s Day, it is forbidden to hunt, fish, slaughter poultry and livestock. Also, don’t do needlework if it’s not your main job. It is better to devote one’s thoughts and actions to God, to prepare for Easter.

Women do not need to wear white ribbons in their hair or wear a white headdress. Also, you should not cut your hair, dye, curl or style your hair to avoid hair problems.
