Voditsi is a great Bulgarian holiday that dates back to ancient times. It is associated with the belief in the cleansing, healing and magical power of water, its ability to “remember” and the worship of people before its life-giving essence. The memory of water is a very old Bulgarian knowledge and in every name our ancestors relied on it – living, silent, loving, painful, colorful, healthy, vowed, awakened water. The old Bulgarians believed that at midnight the water begins to “hear” and come true! January 5th is the Night of Silent Water, when in the evening a vessel of pure water is brought out, which remains “silent” all night under the stars, and at midnight the sky opens and the most secret desires are fulfilled. The water is called out loud with the words “TO BE”! On January 6th, young men throw themselves into the river for health and masculine strength, and male children up to one year old bathe in cold water to become men. Throwing the Cross is a very old custom that symbolizes the return of the Life-giving principle of water. Whoever catches it will have a healthy and successful year. It is believed that on this day the water heals and strengthens, and whoever enters it washes away disease and sin. EN: Voditsi is a great Bulgarian holiday that dates back to ancient times.
