Moving (rolling) holidays... The movable part of the church calendar moves with the changing date of the celebration from year to year. All "mobile" holidays are counted from Easter and move in the space of the "secular" calendar with it.
Twelve rolling holidays:
Twelve feast days have one day of the forefeast, with the exception of the Nativity of Christ, which has 5 days of the forefeast and the Epiphany, which has 4 days of the forefeast.
The number of days after the feast is not the same - from 1 to 8 days, depending on the greater or lesser proximity of some holidays to others or to the days of fasting.
Some of the Lord's feasts, in addition, are preceded and concluded by special Saturdays and weeks (Sundays).
The services of the twelve holidays of the fixed circle are in the period. Services of the twelve holidays of the rolling circle are located in Lenten and Tsvetnoy.
In Russia, until 1925, the twelve holidays were both church and civil.
Great non-twelve holidays:
The feasts of the Nativity and the Beheading of John the Baptist, the Circumcision of the Lord, the Protection of the Most Holy Theotokos, the Holy Primary Apostles Peter and Paul, have no forefeast, afterfeast or giving.

Christian holidays
Christian holidays - certain days of the church calendar, marked by services of an individual liturgical nature. This is fixed in the names of the holidays and "times of penitence", the dates and the order of their celebration, as well as in the content of the texts sung during the service. Their purpose and meaning is the remembrance, glorification and theological interpretation of the key stages of the history of Salvation, which is embodied mainly in the events of the earthly life of Jesus Christ (Savior), and the Virgin Mary - a real participant in this divine-human process. Hence - an exceptional place in the calendar of holidays dedicated to Him.
The holidays are distributed within two overlapping annual cycles - (Menaion) and (Triode, or Passover-Pentecostal). Celebrations and commemorative events of the first cycle are strictly fixed only by the dates of the month (for the dates of the Julian calendar in relation to the modern civil one, an amendment is required: n - 13 days, - for the XX-XXI centuries). The holidays of the second are fixed only on the days of the week, being rigidly correlated with Easter, which is the starting point for the entire moving annual cycle. The date of the latter shifts within 35 days ("Easter limits"): from April 4 (March 22, O.S.) - to May 8 (April 25, O.S.).
The most important holidays of the modern Orthodox calendar are called "twelve", or "twelve" (from Slav. Two ten - "twelve") (see). as a "holiday feast" is outside this classification.
The second step in the festive hierarchical ladder is occupied by the holidays, which are called "great" in liturgical usage. These include: Protection of the Most Holy Theotokos (1/14 October), Circumcision of the Lord and the memory of St. Basil the Great (1/14 January), Nativity of John the Baptist (24 June / 7 July), commemoration of the supreme appointees. Peter and Paul (June 29 / July 12), the Beheading of John the Baptist (August 29 / September 11), as well as, according to some old calendars, the repose (death) of ap. John the Theologian (September 26 / October 9), commemoration of St. Nicholas, Archbishop Mir of Lycia (December 6/19) and the transfer of his relics from Mir to the Italian city of Bari (May 9/22).
All other numerous holidays are dedicated to disembodied forces (common holiday - Cathedral of the Archangel Michael, November 8/21), Old Testament and Christian saints, remembrance of significant events in Sacred Biblical and Christian history, the appearance of miraculous icons, the discovery of relics.
The constant canonization of new saints means the continuous replenishment of the Christian calendar.
The Church Charter (Typikon) provides for the gradation of all holidays into five categories according to the degree of solemnity of the performance of their divine services, which is recorded with special signs (the sixth category has no sign). The feast day of any temple (whose name he bears) is equated for him in the liturgical aspect with the twelve feasts. The same degree of solemnity can be inherent in "locally revered" holidays, even those having a modest liturgical status at the general church level.
The common holidays for all Christians are, first of all, Easter and the Nativity of Christ (the latter, as a special calendar celebration, does not have the Armenian and other Monophysite churches). The most important annual holidays are basically the same for Orthodox Christians and Catholics (because they are based on the same events of sacred history), but differ in dates, often names and semantic nuances, as well as in the nature of the celebration.
Many saints of the one Church are equally revered: the eastern ones in the West, the western ones in the East (Basil the Great - Ambrose of Mediolansky, etc.). But the saints of one Church, who lived after the division of the Churches (1054), can be venerated in another Church mainly at the local level, with the permission of the church authorities. The official Catholic calendar, for example, includes the names of Sts. Kirill Turovsky (May 11), Anthony of Pechersky (July 24), Equal-to-the-Apostles Olga and Vladimir (July 27 and 28), Boris and Gleb (August 5), Sergius of Radonezh (October 8); the Vladimir Icon of the Mother of God is also honored (September 7).
Protestants, rejecting the veneration of the Mother of God, saints, relics and icons, do not have their respective holidays in their calendars.
He studies holidays in the context of the general process of forming the church calendar (literally "holiday studies") - an auxiliary historical discipline, one of the sections of academic liturgy.
Liturgical texts are contained in the Service, in 12 volumes (for fixed holidays), Lenten and Color (for mobile), the Festive Minea, as well as in numerous editions of services for individual holidays, often containing historical information, commentaries, notation and other appendices.
“How to celebrate a holiday? We celebrate an event (to delve into the greatness of the event, its purpose, its fruit for believers) or a person, such as: the Lord, the Mother of God, Angels and Saints (to delve into the attitude of that person towards God and humanity, into its beneficial influence on the Church of God , generally). It is necessary to delve into the history of the event or person, to approach the event or person, otherwise the holiday will be imperfect, not pleasing. Holidays should have an impact on our life, should revive, warm up our faith (hearts) in future blessings and nourish pious, good morals. "
Holiday calendar: weekends, non-working days in 2018, 2019 (production calendar)
Production calendar of holidays for 2017, 2018, how we rest next year for the New Year holidays and not only ...
Every year we rest according to the approved calendar of holidays. This calendar of holidays is approved annually by the President of the Russian Federation. Due to slight shifts in the days of the week, the holidays themselves are shifted each time.
It is worth noting that every year, despite the fact that sometimes holidays fall on weekends, we rest approximately the same number of days a year. The thing is that there is an unspoken rule that if a holiday falls on a weekend, then adjacent working days become days off, in the same amount as holidays fell on a regular weekend.

Holidays in January
There are quite a few holidays in January. These are also the post-New Year holidays associated directly with the new year, for example, the old new year and the holidays that have historically hit the month of January. Moreover, in January there are many religious, political and simply historical holidays. All, or rather the most significant of these dates and holidays are given in our section "Holidays and Dates in January".

Holidays in February
The February holidays still keep everyone and everything in good shape. After all, they are not so insignificant and invisible. Each of you will name the most popular holidays in February. The first significant holiday is Valentine's Day, or as it is also called Valentine's Day.
But the second important date of February is Defender of the Fatherland Day. It also has a second name, just February 23rd. In fact, there are much more holidays in February. And you can get acquainted with all these holidays in our category.
Holidays in March
You will immediately say offhand the most important holiday of March! This is, of course, International Women's Day. Indeed, with spring, not only nature comes to life, streams run, the sun warms up, but our feelings begin to melt like wax candles. And first of all, this is connected with the beautiful and beautiful ... And that is why the first thing in our minds is remembered in March the holiday of all girls, women, grandmothers!
In fact, in March and many other holidays, professional and religious ...
Holidays in April
In April, the sun no longer tickles the nose, but really warms. You can walk more and longer. This means that the most valuable holidays are those that can be spent on the street and all together. As a rule, the most important Orthodox holiday falls in April, namely Easter. For this holiday, they organize a procession of the cross, a service and, of course, do not forget to decorate Easter eggs and bake delicious cakes!
Actually in this month, despite this great holiday, everything goes on as usual. That is, there are many professional dates in April, which also do not go unnoticed.
Holidays in May
Here it is, a truly warm spring month - May, the harbinger of hot summer, sultry days, warm nights. When each of us will taste the warmth, will spend a lot of time on the street and traveling, and just enjoy life without cold weather ...
That is why the May holidays seem to us especially joyful, warm, and bright. However, even if we discard the onset of the warm season, it cannot be said that the holidays in May are not important. Let's recall the most popular ones. Already on May 1 we are met by a holiday - the day of peace, labor, spring. May 9 - Victory Day. These are important holidays for the country and for everyone at once. And in May, there are many professional holidays: the day of the border guard, librarian, freelancer ... You can find all these holidays in our category.
Holidays in June
The first month of summer makes us happy with the day of our country, the Day of Russia. This is a significant public holiday, which is also a day off. Therefore, everyone knows about him! Someone on this day really stands up for the successes of our country and praises our difficult and thorny special path in the world among other powers. And someone just spends this summer day for the benefit of themselves and their family. In any case, the holiday turns out for everyone for the good and for joy!
And besides, the warm season for our country is already a holiday that is with us every day until autumn!
Holidays in July
So the hottest month of the year is already taking the bridle of the year in order to drive flying summer days, to give us unforgettable moments of the sun, warm rain and summer holidays. And apparently, since summer itself is not a bad holiday, there are not so many holidays in the summer months. Rather, they are not as significant as autumn dates and other seasons.
Here you can highlight the day of the kiss, the day of the baptism of Russia, the day of trade ...
Of course, there are many other dates in the month, but it is these holidays that seem to us the most significant on a general scale for our country and for our society. Therefore, be content with what you have and just enjoy every moment! Moreover, in the summer many have a vacation, which is also a great holiday!
Holidays in August
This is the last month of summer, which means it's time to take stock. The very results of the work that we did this summer. It is not for nothing that religious holidays associated with the harvesting begin in August. This is Khlebny saved, Honey saved, Apple saved.
The August holidays are holidays for those who have done a good job, those who will reap something, but will not easily remember the passing summer.
Also, how can you not remember the day of the Airborne Forces in August, many are looking forward to this holiday in order to hear and learn something new from what can be done unreasonable in the guise of a person, hiding behind slogans that only the like can do something special ... And sometimes it really happens that way!
Of course, in August, the holiday of the Day of the Railwayman is immediately remembered. Our country is large and there are many people of this profession in it!
Holidays in September
September has just begun and bam, it's already a holiday. This day everyone waits in its own way. Someone with special zeal wants to plunge into study in order to communicate with peers and comprehend the wisdom of the sciences, while someone is waiting for him with a certain hopelessness that there is nowhere to go.
But in any case, remembering the September holidays, it immediately comes to mind on September 1 - Knowledge Day. This day is always beautiful, meaningful, and also significant.
In addition, this month, only at the end of the month, there is also a holiday for all those who prepare children for school, namely preschool teachers.
From religious holidays one can recall the dates of many saints, be it the day of the Apostle Bartholomew, the prophet and the god-seer Moses, but there is nothing supernatural and great in this month!
So religious people can spend their strength and bright feelings on intensified school homework with their children, especially after the summer it is relevant.
Holidays in October
Well, the season is coming, and already warm seasons are behind and the season is coming - the charm of the eyes. October will delight us with such holidays as the Day of the Elderly. We don't know how much the holiday was chosen in accordance with the season, that is, it seems like elderly people and autumn, everything is intertwined, everything converges. We just have to say that this holiday is famous and obviously respected. After all, this date is well known!
Also in October, the day of the criminal investigation, the day of the customs officer and other professional holidays.
As for religious holidays, by analogy with September, there is a certain calm here, that is, there is nothing special. There are some saints' days, but it doesn't really matter.
Holidays in November
The cold season is coming, which means we all want to snuggle closer to each other, plunge into the atmosphere of warm family warmth, friendly relations and get-togethers. Holidays are already being held more and more at home, and their significance is no longer so important, because it is unlikely that it will be possible to go to a full-fledged picnic.
Actually in November the most important public holiday is the Day of National Unity. Which only confirms our words that everyone wants unity, but not everyone succeeds.
On this day, everyone also rests and most of it is spent at their own discretion, still having time to walk, while there is still no serious cold weather. In the month, of course, there is a professional holiday of a bank employee, RHBZ troops, KVN day ...
Holidays in December
Well, what a holiday we are waiting for this month, no need to tell anyone. Moreover, we are not waiting for him for a month, some are waiting for him all year. just as the New Year has passed, so many are ready to celebrate it again. But miracles do not happen, which may be for the better, because then the significance of the New Year's holiday would have disappeared. So, the most important holiday in December is New Year.
Also in December, the Day of the Constitution of the Russian Federation, Day of the Lawyer, Day of the Power Engineer. There are plenty of power engineers in our country, so the holiday is very popular.
Of the religious holidays, one can celebrate the Day of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker, or easier Nikolos, Klaus, and even easier our Santa Claus! So everything points to the celebration of the main date of the year, and everything else is on the way!
