History of Rose Day: The Romantic Beginning of Valentine's Week
Rose Day celebration: Rose Day (February 7) is the first day of Valentine’s Week, celebrated by exchanging roses as a symbol of love, friendship, and passion. Lovers express their love by giving each other roses.
Generally, the historical origins of this day are associated with ancient Roman culture and medieval European customs. The Romans considered the rose to be the sacred flower of Venus, the goddess of love and beauty, which later became a means of expressing loyalty to their loved ones by knights in the Middle Ages.
Modern Rose Day is associated with the tragic history of Saint Valentine. He secretly married soldiers against the marriage ban of the Roman Emperor Claudius, which led to his imprisonment and execution on February 14.
While in prison, he wrote a love letter to the jailer’s blind daughter with a rose, signing it “From your Valentine”. From this event, the rose became an eternal symbol of love and the popularity of red roses spread during the era of Queen Victoria.
Even today, on Rose Day, red roses carry the message of love, yellow roses of friendship and white roses of peace, which deepen relationships. This day creates a unique opportunity to exchange love not only between lovers, but also between family and friends.
