HISTORY BEHIND VALENTINES DAY

romantic valentine day poems quotes angelic graphics navigation directory
"The History behind Valentines Day" can really be traced back about 1500 years ago when while awaiting his execution, St. Valentine restored the sight of his jailer's blind daughter. On the eve of his death, St. Valentine wrote a farewell note to the jailer's daughter, signing it, "From your Valentine..." This then is thought to be the start of the current day tradition of sending Valentines Day cards. Then in 496 A.D. Pope Gelasius set aside February 14th to honour St. Valentine so then this special date became the excepted date for exchanging Love messages and St. Valentine became the "Patron Saint of Lovers".
St. Valentines Day is usually celebrated by sending poems and simple gifts such as flowers or candy to friends and romantic interests. It has always been a day dedicated to lovers and lover wanna be's. There are many records as to the history of Valentines Day and here are some of the most notable:
The Story of Lupercalia
One tradition observes that Valentine's Day has its origins in the Roman festival of Lupercalia, observed on February 15th. Lupercalia celebrated the coming of Spring in the Roman calendar. February was observed later in the year than it is today. Lupercalia was associated with the Roman gods Lupercus and Faunus. Lupercus watched over shepherds and their flocks and the festival of Lupercalia became a celebration intended to ensure the fertility of flocks, fields and people.
The celebration of Lupercalia transformed and spread as the Roman Empire grew. When the Romans conquered France, it was then that the first Valentine-like cards may have been exchanged. Apparently, a container in which women had placed their names (possibly accompanied by love notes) was used in a lottery. Men drawing a women's name would either seek or were guaranteed that woman's favors.
The Legend of Saint Valentines Day
The legend of St. Valentine stems from real-life martyrs from the Roman Empire known as Valentines. It is unsure who was the St. Valentine, but there are two possible candidates. One of these Valentines is believed to have been a Roman priest and physician. He was killed in the third century, during the persecutions of the Emperor Claudius II. After his death this Valentine was buried in the Roman road Via Flaminia. Pope Julius I is said to have later built a basilica above his grave. A second Saint Valentine candidate, believed to be a bishop of Teni, a province in central Italy, was executed in Rome.
These men's status comes from legends of harboring Christians from persecution, curing the blindness of a cell keeper's daughter, and conducting marriages while they were forbidden during times of war. It is this, along with the traditions of Lupercalia, that came together to honor St. Valentine as the patron saint of lovers.
The Legend of "Eros", "Cupid" and "Amor"
From its association with Lupercalia, and that day's connection to fertility, comes St. Valentines association with love and romance. This led Valentine's enthusiasts to appoint the Roman god Cupid as a patron of Valentine's day. Cupid is also known as Amor or Eros in Greek mythology. Eros seems to have been responsible for impregnating a number of goddesses and mortals. The ancient Greeks believed Eros was the "Love force", a force they believe was behind all of creation.

SWEET THINGS TO DO FOR VALENTINES DAY

romantic valentine day poems quotes angelic graphics navigation directory
There are many sweet things to do and ways to celebrate Valentines Day. This day for Lovers is usually celebrated by sending poems and simple gifts such as flowers or candy to friends and romantic interests. In the United States, Esther Howland is given credit for sending the first valentine card. Commercial valentines cards were introduced in the 1800's and now this date is highly commercialised but as in any holiday, it's the individuals intention that gives it the greatest meaning and purpose. The spirit of goodness continues as valentines are sent out with sentimental and romantic poems or verses and children exchange valentine cards at school.
Hundreds of years ago in England, children dressed up as adults on Valentine's Day and went singing from home to home. The popular verse they sang was:
Good morning to you, valentine,
Curl your locks as I do mine
Two before and three behind.
Good morning to you, valentine...
In Wales wooden love spoons were carved and given as gifts on February 14th. Hearts, keys and keyholes were favorite decorations on the spoons. The decoration meant, "You unlock my heart..!"
In the Middle Ages, young men and women drew names from a bowl to see who their valentines would be. They would wear these names on their sleeves for one week. To wear your heart on your sleeve now means that it is easy for other people to know how you are feeling.
In some countries, a young woman may receive a gift of clothing from a young man. If she keeps the gift, it means she will marry him. Some people believe that if a woman saw a robin flying overhead on Valentine's Day, it meant she would marry a sailor. If she saw a sparrow, she would marry a poor man and be very happy. If she saw a goldfinch, she would marry a millionaire.
A love seat is a wide chair. It was first made to seat one woman with her wide dress. As it evolved, the love seat or courting seat had two sections, often in an S-shape. In this way, a couple could sit together, but not too closely..!
Some other Sweet things folks do to celebrate Valentines Day
Think of five or six names of boys or girls you might marry. As you twist the stem of an apple, recite the names until the stem comes off. You will marry the person whose name you were saying when the stem fell off.
Pick a dandelion that has gone to seed. Take a deep breath and blow the seeds into the wind. Count the seeds that remain on the stem. That is the number of children you will have.
If you cut an apple in half and count how many seeds are inside, you will also know how many children you will have.

Angelic Realm Two: "The Guardian Angels"
"Guardian Angels" are perhaps the most well known of all Angels dwelling within the "Angelic Realms". They are Spiritual Beings who are continually in the Presence of the Divine and take their greatest Joy in singing praises to Our Creator.
"The Guardian Angels" serve as Divine Messengers, bringing God�s Will and Word to all humanity with their particular attention turned toward those who directly call upon them. Although for most of our lives we as humans seem unable to see "Our Guardian Angels", they remain ever present and always ready to protect and watch over us.
The role of "Guardian Angels" is both to Guide the petitioner to good thoughts, words and deeds, as well as to Protect and Preserve us from evil. "The Guardian Angels" aid their petitioners in the fulfillment of Prayer and also serve in the capacity of representing individual souls to God at the time of Translation or death. "Our Guardian Angels" are intent on obtaining from God all the graces and favors conducive to our Eternal welfare and their greatest mission and desire is to see us home in Heaven.

Angelic Realm Three: "The Forgiveness Angels"
Whenever we are hurt or gravely disapointed along the path of life, we may call upon "The Forgiveness Angels" who are the foremost example of supreme Compassion in this world and the next. This Angelic Realm is whole-heartedly focused upon during those times in our lives when we can think of no earthly reason to forgive or be forgiven. The "Forgiveness Angels" dwell and have their being in a state expanded perception and higher understanding which is rooted in a realm beyond normal human possibility and comprehension.
"The Forgiveness Angels" may impart knowledge, insight and forgiveness in a dream or vision which may spontaneously heals all mental, emotional and even physical wounds through the auspices of their sacred interventions. This divine intervention is often known simply as "Grace". The result is freedom from resentments and regrets as well as an enhanced ability to make the world a more loving place for souls to dwell within...

Angelic Realm Four: "The Faithfulness Angels"
When we place "Trust in ourselves or another", we in turn invest our belief in the strength to fulfill a nobel goal or everyday challenge and trust in the possibility that it will be accomplished. Faithfulness is blossomed thru "Trust" and when we begin to trust the higher power inside of which "The Faithfulness Angels Realm" reside, we empower our own sense of Purpose and Being. When we trust a person at their word, we in a real sense elevate them in their perception of being trust-worthy. Of course trust is developed through sincere thoughts, words and actions and when we choose to trust someone who has betrayed us in the past, with that act of faith, we sow the seeds of healing and growth,and allow the possibility for what was wronged to be righted once again...

"The Joyfilled Angels" may well be the Angelic group which is most sorely needed in the world with it's constant barrage of sadness, violence and chaos in the current day. The enduring message of "The Joyfilled Angelic Realm" is to "Never Give Up" and to remember that regardless of how down trodden this short life on earth may become, "Father Mother God" can still fully Heal and Restore all injuries and inequities if we are but willing to humbly open our Hearts to the "Everlasting Joy" of their Holy Spirit.

What a blessing it is to have a friend who is loyal through thick and thin unto the end. How rare, indeed, are "The Loyalty Angels" who will stand by us no matter how seriously our trust and belief in them is lacking. An Angel sent forth from of "The Loyalty Angelic Realm" often acts without evidence or weight of public opinion on our side and solely in our most benevolent of interests.

In the quiet moments of early dawn or dusk, when our spirit longs to write, sing, dance, paint or draw, it is "The Creativity Angels" that revel in any opportunity given to cause us to be inspired and filled with meaningful Artistic expressions. These Angels may appear when the mind is more still, quiet and yet focused on perceiving a deeper meaning to the myriad of artistic and expressionist mediums available. As in all Angelic appearances they must be called upon or invited by conscious desire or by the unwitting and often unforeseen circumstances that cause us to "Let go and let good be expressed naturally..."
"The Creativity Angels" may help us to discover a deeper meaning or the perfect key word or sentence hidden within a string of what otherwise may appear to be a jumble of random words. Whether we create poetry or prose, painting or sculpture, movies, music, dance, massage or any kind of expressionist movement that allow us to share our Heartfelt thoughts and feelings, we may call on "The Creativity Angels" to help us in adding Beauty and Joy to our lives and our world...

Angelic Realm Ten: "The Innocence Angels"
I've heard it said that life would be more fulfilling if we reversed the order of existance. That is, start with Old Age and work our way back to childhood. It seems that either way we do eventually become more like children in our later golden years in this life. The most cherished qualities of life seem to be the childlike wonder and innocence yet sincere optimism we once possessed more trully and freely as children. Before we learned to be more careful and take charge or be in control was life not more simple and less cumbersome during those early and carefree days..? "The Innocence Angels" are perpetually as we may remember ourselves being at one time not so long ago... They may be called upon to assist us in releasing doubts, fears, regrets, inhibitions and the burdensom complexities of our quite serious adult existance and aide us to rediscover "The Child Within" so we may be playful, curious, an carefree once again...

The nurturing of an ever-closer relationship with the Creator through their Creation is the fulfilling mission of these Angels dwelling in a Natural and Supernatural realm of existance.

Preparation:
To begin your St. Valentine's Day Prayer, sit in a quiet place where you will be undistracted and undisturbed for a 5-10 minute period. If you already have a prayer or meditation altar, place some colorful flowers preferrably in full bloom on you're altar. If you do not have such a place set-up then you can use a simple table or chair to place you're flowers upon along with whatever objects or items you find to be inspiring or uplifting in nature. Perhaps a card or picture of an Angel or best of all a photo of some one or a group of persons you Love...
Focus on this special Prayer time to reflect on the words in the Prayer posted below as well as you're concentration on increasing the Love, Care and Compassion in your life. This focus on Goodness magnified is the goal in making Valentine's Day or any day a more beautiful Loving Day...
Prayer for Valentines Day
Dear Lord, who art high in the Heavens,
Giver of Love and Passion,
And He who strings the heart�s cords,
Lead the Lovers this day,
February ten plus four.
The day during the month of two,
When the date is the perfect number of God
Greater two souls and two hearts...
Some Loves are fleeting ,
But that which is built on you,
will never fail.
So guide the Lovers to know what is to be.
Your truths the Lovers� mouths should speak,
For Your truth is that
which is honest to the heart.
Only this then, should pass
over the red lips of the Lovers...
Your art, the Lovers simply a medium.
It is only with True Hearts
that You can create a Masterpiece,
So let the Lovers remember
that their Soul�s Desire,
Is the one for which You light their Fire.
And let it be You,
who creates the Art of the Lovers.
The art of two into one. Amen...

Valentine's Day Love Poem
by Elizabeth Barret Browning
How Do I Love Thee..? Let me count the ways
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of Being an ideal Grace...
I love thee to the level of everyday's
Most quiet need, by sun and candlelight
I love thee freely, as men strive for Right
I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise...
I love thee with the passion put to use
In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
With my lost saints, I love thee with the Breath
Smiles, tears, of all my life..! and, if God choose
I shall but love thee better after death...
Unending Love
by Rabindranath Tagore
I seem to have loved you in numberless forms, numberless times...
In life after life, in age after age, forever.
My spellbound heart has made and remade the necklace of songs,
That you take as a gift, wear round your neck in your many forms,
In life after life, in age after age, forever...
Whenever I hear old chronicles of love, it's age old pain,
It's ancient tale of being apart or together.
As I stare on and on into the past, in the end you emerge,
Clad in the light of a pole-star, piercing the darkness of time.
You become an image of what is remembered forever...
You and I have floated here on the stream that brings from the fount.
At the heart of time, love of one for another.
We have played along side millions of lovers,
Shared in the same shy sweetness of meeting,
the distressful tears of farewell,
Old love but in shapes that renew and renew forever...
Beautiful Dreamer
by Stephen Foster
Beautiful dreamer, wake unto me,
Starlight and dewdrops are waiting for thee,
Sounds of the rude world heard in the day,
Lull'd by the moonlight have all pass'd away..!
Beautiful dreamer, queen of my song,
List while I woo thee with soft melody,
Gone are the cares of life's busy throng.
Beautiful dreamer, awake unto me..!
Beautiful dreamer, awake unto me..!
Beautiful dreamer, out on the sea,
Mermaids are chaunting the wild lorelie,
Over the streamlet vapors are borne,
Waiting to fade at the bright coming morn...
Beautiful dreamer, beam on my heart,
E'en as the morn on the streamlet and sea,
Then will all clouds of sorrow depart,
Beautiful dreamer, awake unto me..!
