Walpurgis Night
The Walpurgis Night is named after the holy Walburga. She was a Benedictine abbess from England (710-779). Walburga is the catholic patron saint of plague, and her Walpurgis oil is said to have healing powers. She was also the patron saint of pregnant women and protected them from starvation. Even today, you can see a representation of St. Walpurga at the stained glass windows of Regensburg Cathedral.
After her canonization, the annual celebration took place there on 30 April. The nine days before that was called Walpurgis Days. Nine is a mystical number, which is also associated with witches. The figure stands for strength and mighty power.
Especially in Bohemia and Lower Austria, these days are celebrated. During this time, a window is always opened to protect the Walburga from ghosts. You should receive a piece of gold from her, as thank you.
Quote of the day
Witch’s one-times-one
This, you must ken!
From one make ten,
And two let be,
Make even three,
Then rich you'll be.
Skip o'er the four!
From five and six,
The Witch's tricks,
Make seven and eight,
'Tis finished straight;
And nine is one,
And ten is none,
That is the witch's one-time-one!
