Flores de Mayo
Flores de Mayo (Spanish for "Flowers of May") is a festival held in the Philippines in the month of May. It is one of the May devotions to the Blessed Virgin Mary and lasts for the entire month. The Santacruzan is the pageant on the last day of ''Flores de Mayo'', held in honour of Helena of Constantinople (known as Reyna Elena) and Constantine the Great finding the True Cross in Jerusalem. Its observance in May probably stems from the old Galician date for Roodmas, which was abolished when Pope John XXIII combined it with the Feast of the Triumph of the Cross on 14 September. ==Etymology== The name of the festival is derived from the Spanish language word ''flores'' meaning "flowers". Other names are "''Flores de María''" ("Flowers of Mary") and "''Álay''" (Filipino for "offering").
