Dear Friends and Clients
Have you ever wonder why we celebrate certain dates on the calendar? Or perhaps why that holiday fell on that particular day? We did a little research on the internet and located several websites containing information regarding the most popular dates for the month of March. The information is condensed to provide you with a quick read.
March 14, 2010 – Day Light Saving Time Begins
It’s that time again; it’s Spring ahead, and that means we will all need to set our clocks ahead one hour, in other words, we will gain back that hour we lost in November.
Day Light Saving time was first passed in 1918, it stated that daylight saving time must begin at the same time on the second Sunday in March.
Likewise, this same rule requires that the regions that observe daylight saving time begin at the same time, switch back to standard time at 2 a.m. on the first Sunday in November.
March 17, 2010 – St. Patrick’s Day
There are many legends associated with St Patrick Day. One legend has Saint Patrick put the curse of God on all the venomous snakes in Ireland and he drove all the snakes into the sea where they drowned.
True, these are mostly legends, but, after some 1500 years, these legends have been slowly combined with the facts. And together they have helped us know the Saint and the spirit behind celebration of the day. Patrick's mission in Ireland lasted for over 20 years. He died on March 17, AD 461. That day has been commemorated as St. Patrick's Day ever since. The Irish have brought with them the celebration of St. Patrick Day everywhere they populated as part of their national tradition.
The leprechaun, a Celtic fairy, has become entrenched as a chief symbol for this holiday, as is the shamrock, an ancient symbol for the triple goddess Brigit. It is fitting that this holiday should fall at the time of the year when the return of spring begins to seem at hand. As the holiday spread, icons like the green color, the tri-leafed shamrock, the leprechaun, and the pot of gold have been added to the celebration of this Day?
March 20, 2010 – First Day of Spring
Saturday, March 20, at 10:32am PDT; the Sun enters Aries. It is one of the two days of the year that the Sun moves across the celestial equator. This is the imaginary line among the stars that lies directly above the Earth's equator circling from east to west, the Sun rises exactly due east and sets exactly due west. This marks the First Official Day of spring.
