On this holiday, people, drawing water, bring it home and store it throughout the year. It stays fresh all this time.
Also in January, they celebrate the Jordan or Epiphany (Jordan bathing (Epiphany bathing)).
Bathing at Epiphany was not as massively popular as, for example, the rite of blessing water, but over time it nevertheless gained popularity. Why do people bathe in the Jordan and what are the traditions about this?
According to the Orthodox tradition, everywhere on January, ice holes in the form of a cross were cut down in the ice of frozen rivers, called “Jordan“. A procession of the cross was performed to them in large cities and villages from early morning. Basically, those who were “hypocritical“ and sinned on Christmastide dived into the icy water in order to cleanse themselves
