No balcony and no yard with shoes and clothes spread out.
A walk through the Greek neighborhoods, both in the cities and in the countryside, on the evening of November 7 in past decades it hid a unique phenomenon. No balcony and no yard had shoes and Laid out clothes.
An old custom ordered Greek housewives not to leave clothes and shoes outside the house on the eve of the Brigades. Because the night before the dawn of the great celebration of Orthodoxy, Brigaders Michael and Gabriel would take with them the objects and the souls of these people.
The old custom
On November 8, the Church celebrates the assembly of the Archangels Michael and Gabriel, as well as the rest of the Incorporeal and Heavenly Angelic Orders. Archangel Michael and Archangel Gabriel are usually depicted with a sword.
We like to keep traditions and not because we are afraid that our souls will be taken away, it’s just nice to keep some customs of our grandparents. So tonight, don’t leave clothes spread out and shoes on your balcony or in your yard.
Also, on the eve of the Feast of the Archangels, you cannot take the garbage out at night.
