St Catherine's Day

St. Catherine's Day is the 25th of November. It has retained its popularity throughout the centuries. It commemorates the martyrdom of St. Catherine, one of the Fourteen Holy Helpers.
== Historical meaning ==
According to traditional accounts, St. Catherine was beheaded by Emperor Maximinus II around 305 AD in Alexandria. November 25 became the commemoration date in the 10th century, and many churches and particularly nunneries in Europe were dedicated to St. Catherine. In Lutheran countries, this day has also been associated with Catherine, the wife of Henry VIII.
Similar to St. Martin's Day on November 10, St. Catherine’s Day also marks the arrival of winter. Also like St. Martin’s Day, St. Catherine’s Day is basically a secular holiday. Generally, St. Martin’s Day and St. Catherine’s Day are described by their differences: St. Martin’s Day is primarily a holiday associated with men and St. Catherine’s Day is associated with women, which means that the latter day has acquired a strongly feminine orientation.
