Valentine´s Day
Is there a time for love, romance and relations?
The answer should be a resounding yes. To celebrate emotions, love and romance, people use a lot of symbols: flowers, gems, candy, food, drinks, dance, a romantic dinner, e Cards, jewellery and … chocolate!
The 14th of February is the day for friends and lovers to express their feelings and share a glorious custom by gifts of flowers, gems, romantic letters and more.
Since ancient times people is looking for a time to share glorious moments with those special beings and loved ones.
The Valentine e Cards are the inheritance from a man who was executed the 14th of February of the year 269. He left a note for the daughter of his jailer, to thank her for being so special to him. He signed what we would call an e Card with the signature: “From your Valentine”.
Pagan Romans celebrated the feast of Lupercadia which was one of the orgy-centric all day bashes enjoyed by Romans.
During Lupercadia, which was held on February 14, women would write love letters and leave them in a large urn. Each Roman man would draw a note and go after who wrote the message they chose. Lupercadia which was a fertility festival dedicated to Jaunus the Roman God and Godess of agriculture.
With the advent of Christianity, Lupercadia was banned and Valentine´s day was offered as substitute. Pope Getasius declared February 14 Saints Valentine´s day around 498 AD.
France and England people used to believe February 14 was the beginning of birds mating season, which reinforced the idea that the middle of February, Valentine´s day should be a day for romance.
Besides the United States, Valentine´s day is celebrated in Canada, Mexico, the United Kingdom, France and Australia. For a reason I do not know, Valentine´s day is celebrated in Venezuela in September.
Since ancient times, love, friendship and romance are the privilege of everybody. So, Valentine´s is the opportunity for us to show appreciation for those we love, for our friends and for those special beings close to our hearts on a creative and positive relationship.
A great way to show our feelings is by gifts of flowers. A bouquet of cut flowers is awesome as it is able to transform a normal environment into a beautiful garden.
Gifts are traditional as a way to show affection, love, romance and friendship.
Valentine´s day is marvellous to look for and then enjoy a little corner of paradise for a sexy weekend getaway. It is marvellous to enjoy a sense of privacy in sensual surroundings to inspire romance, seduce yourself and somebody special in a sleek sexy hideaway for lovers.
Find that magic place overlooking a lake. Enjoy fountains, fireplaces, a Watsu massage pool and a seductive, spacious Aqua Dolce for couples, compound.
What about enjoying a hideaway where you can arrange a Latin guitar trio to serenade you on the beach and have dinner on a moon lit patio.
For those who feel adventurous there are beautiful places where you can enjoy canoeing, diving, sailing, surfing, fishing and a lot more.
What would we do without romance?
Ancient Greeks helped to recognize the need to describe different kinds of love. They invented the word “eros” to describe carnal love and “agape” to mean a spiritual love.
Love and courtship have evolved with time. There was a time when scarcity on nubile women caused marriages to originate in captures, after men raided neighboring villages for wives. Then, the word honeymoon was born. There was a French custom originated in the fact that newly married couples went into hidden to avoid the kidnapped grooms to be rescued. After the moon went through all its phases, the couple drank a brew called metheglin which was made of honey.
At that time arranged marriages were the norm. They were business relations born out of the desire and or need for property, monetary or political alliances.
During medieval times, love emerged as a relevant cause for a relationship, in reaction to arranged marriages. The Victorian era, after 1830, brought romantic love to become the primary requirement for marriage.
Love, romance and friendship are great reasons to share, dine and gift.
Poems, cards, candy, food, drinks jewellery and romantic places are great ways to show loved ones how important they are for us.
Valentine day is the time to express love and celebrate the spirit of love.
Happy Valentine and great success for you with plenty of health and happiness.
