Spring is coming symbolically with one of the most beautiful local customs (to be sure, Bulgarians have the same custom).

Mărțișor is an old tradition celebrated all over Romania every year, on March 1st. The name Mărțișor is a diminutive of March (Martie in Romanian). On this day, Romanians buy silky red-white threads (șnur) tied into a bow to which a small trinket (or, as in this picture, Spring flowers) is attached and offer them to their (female) family members, friends and colleagues to show friendship, respect or admiration. It is believed that the person who wears the red and white string would enjoy a prosperous and healthy year. In eastern Romania ( Moldavia and Bukovina), the red and white string was complemented with a small - gold or silver - coin. After wearing the coin for twelve days, the women would buy fresh cheese with it, hoping that their skin would be healthy and beautiful the entire year.

Much like in Bulgaria, the custom is clearly very old, pre-Christian and linked to fertility cults. Mărțișor trinkets initially consisted of small river pebbles, colored in white and red, stringed on a thread and worn around the neck. They were worn, to bring good luck and good weather, from March 1 until the first trees would bloom. When the first trees were flowering the Mărțișor were hanged on tree branches.

On March 1, Romanians celebrate spring by giving each other as gifts small charms attached to a red and white string, called mărțișor. These AI generated images are inspired by some of the designs from my childhood mărțișor collection.

Happy Spring!

Did you know that March 1st means the beginning of spring, for Romanians, it is closely linked to the tradition of offering mărțișor, an ancient symbol celebrating the change of seasons and the rebirth of nature. Last year, a bill was even submitted to the Senate calling for 1 March, the day of the "Mărțișor", to become a national Romanian holiday. The aim was to promote the traditions associated with Marțișor. Only that Romania has already had this obligation since 2017 when the Mărțișor entered the select list of UNESCO intangible heritage. #martı #luxury #abundant #UNESCO #martisor #martisoare #gratitude #familienzeit #martisor #mărțișor (hier: Amsterdam Netherland) https://www.instagram.com/p/CovZ8bwscNY/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
