仲夏节 Midsummer

(重定向自Litha)

仲夏节是夏至来临时的庆祝活动,在北欧是一个重要的节日。仲夏节在丹麦、芬兰及瑞典都是公众假期。在东欧、中欧、英国、爱尔兰、冰岛等地也有庆祝仲夏节。仲夏节是欧洲北部地区居民的重要传统节庆活动,在一些地方,当地居民会在这一天竖立仲夏柱(Maypole)。仲夏节在北欧当地成为一个庆祝的重要节日,和当地偏寒冷的气候有关系。

而在葡萄牙前殖民地澳门,也有庆祝圣若翰洗者节,但并不是与夏至有关,而是庆祝1622年6月24日,荷兰试图入侵失败。此日在澳门回归前称为「城市日」。

在古代,欧洲的一些人们相信如果在仲夏夜前夕摘取金盏花等草药,将具有神奇的治愈效果;当地居民于外出时便点起火炬或篝火,以驱逐野外的孤魂或精灵。

Danes celebrating Midsummer by singing the Midsummer hymn by the bonfire
Midsummer bonfire in Seurasaari. Bonfires are very common in Finland, where many people spend their midsummer in the countryside outside towns.

Midsummer, also known as St John's Day, is the period of time centred upon the summer solstice, and more specifically the Northern European celebrations that accompany the actual solstice or take place on a day between June 19 and June 25 and the preceding evening. The exact dates vary between different cultures. The Christian Church designated June 24 as the feast day of the early Christian martyr St John the Baptist, and the observance of St John's Day begins the evening before, known as St John's Eve.
