Table Custom
Obiceiul mesei |
| Another custom that is still alive in the countryside is called "The
Table" and it is performed on Saint Vasile's Day.
A group of four boys and girls gather together round of a table. On each corner of it is placed one of the following four objects: a coin, a slice of corn musk, a mirror and piece of coal. The participants know the meaning of the four objects, but they don't know where placed are because the objects are covered by a tablecloth. The children have to choose one table corner. He/ She who will find the coin will gain money. He/ She who will find the corn musk will have food. He who will find the mirror will have a beautiful face and a pure and noble soul. The fourth will be unlucky because he/ she finds the piece of coal. Un alt obicei care încã se mai practicã în
zilele noastre la tarã se numeste "Masa" si are loc în ziua
de Sf. Vasile.
