Holidays on September 20 in Ukraine and the world, signs and memorable dates

Today, a number of important holidays and professional dates are celebrated in Ukraine and the world. In our country, these are Surgeon's Day, Inventor's and Rationalizer's Day, and Pharmaceutical Worker's Day. Believers honor the memory of the holy great martyr Eustathius Placidus, his wife Theopistia, and children Agapius and Theopistus. According to the new calendar, this day has a special spiritual significance, because the history of the holy family is an example of steadfastness in faith.

September 20 is popularly known as Cold Waters: it was believed that from this day on, the water in wells and rivers became colder, and autumn finally came into its own. According to signs, warm and clear weather on this day portends a long dry autumn, and strong winds - a harsh and blizzard winter.

It is not recommended to refuse help, borrow money, or have too much fun on this day. The day was considered a time for reflection and prayer.

In addition to religious traditions, September 20 is rich in international initiatives. Today is International Red Panda Day, World Gynecological Oncology Day, International Student Sports Day, World Juice Day, Software Freedom Day, and World Cleanup Day, when millions of people in different countries join in cleaning the planet from garbage.

This day also honors bone marrow donors – people who save the lives of seriously ill patients.

September 20 went down in history with the following events: the beginning of Magellan's circumnavigation of the globe (1519), the capture of Moscow by Stanislav Zholkievsky (1610), the opening of the first Cannes Film Festival (1946), and the creation of the National Security Service of Ukraine, the modern SBU (1991).

Born on this day: Valeriy Pereshkura, Ukrainian gymnast and Olympic silver medalist (1977), Inna Osypenko-Radomska, Ukrainian rower and Olympic champion (1982), and Yulia Batenkova-Bauman, biathlete and Paralympic medalist (1983).
