12 April - Thursday

Navy day - the rite of the resurrection of the dead (in general, with the onset of dry - birch, the Slavs begin ritual visits to the graves with the offering).
Treba is a primordially Slavic term, meaning worship, offering, sacrifice, the administration of the sacrament or sacred rite. In Slavic, "treba" means "T" - teya (I create), "R" - Ra (God), "B" - ba (soul) = "I pretend to the God's soul."
The Slavs buried their relatives in the barrows, they created triznu on these high embankments, they demanded, they made libations. On this day long dead people are brought to the water in the water, saying:
Light, shine, Sunny! I'll give you an egg, As a chicken blows in an oak, Take it to heaven, Let all the souls rejoice.
Treasures of the Slavs - this is food, household items, but only those that are made by themselves. From food and drink - it: kutya, pies, kalachi, pancakes, syrniki, colored eggs, wine, beer, eve (kind of braga).
"Aze and Roda and Rozhanice to keep bread and sires and honey ...", i.e. The requirements for each God are accordingly determined.
The shell of a consecrated red egg is thrown into the water. It is believed that the shell will reach the forgotten souls of the dead (those who have not been mentioned for a long time) to the Mermaid day.
On the night before the Navy Day, navi (strangers, abandoned, buried without ritual and not buried dead at all) rise from the graves, making people dress up for the spring maidens again.
