February 14th – The Celebration of Valentine’s Day
The 14th of February is Valentine’s Day, the day on which we celebrate and explore love in all its many ideals.
How a day for lovers came to be celebrated during the middle of February is interesting and has many origins.
History shows that Valentine’s Day began during the Roman Empire with the Lupercalia festival held in honour of the God of Fertility. The festival enabled young men to search for and choose a soul-mate to wed, which was a common practice during this time.
