Gouves Epiphany
Today is Epiphany and here in Greece it is also known as Theofania or Fota, the Festival of Light marking the end of Christmas. This means that it is also a big Name Day for many, so if you know anyone named Fotis or Fotini, or Rania, Ourania, Theofanis then wish them Χρονια Πολλα (Xronia Polla, many years).
To celebrate the Epiphany, a priest will bless a body of water, a river, lake or the sea. During the blessing he will throw a cross in to the water and locals, mainly boys and men, will jump in to find it and the one who does will have good luck throughout the year.
