The summer solstice is one of the noticeable the turning points of the year. Since ancient times all the Nations of the Earth said in late June, the feast of the peak of the summer. We have such a holiday is Ivan Kupala. However, this feast was inherent not only to the Russian people. In Lithuania it is known as the Lado, in Poland - as Sobotka, Ukraine - bathed or Kupalo. Our ancient ancestors had the deity is bathed, the personification of summer fertility. In his honor the evening and sang songs and jumped over the fire. This ritual act has become an annual celebration of the summer solstice, blending pagan and Christian traditions. Ivan the deity is bathed was named after the baptism of Russia, when he was replaced by none other than John the Baptist (or rather his people's way), whose Nativity was celebrated on June 24.
