Laeserin @Laeserin - 6d
Good morning and welcome to the first day of Lent. 🐟 The season stretches until the evening mass on Holy Thursday, where it merges into another season, the Holy Triduum, in which fasting and abstinence continues. Some people take breaks from Lent on Sundays, to celebrate the Lord's Day, but they still end up fasting for at least 40 days. #AshWednesday #Aschermittwoch
If you want to count along, during the 2025 season, I've listed the number of the day, the date, and the occasion here. Easter Season begins on the first Sunday after the Paschal full moon and continues on, for 50 days, until Pentecost.
In some regions, Ash Wednesday is also called the "Nurse your Fat Tuesday digestive problems, sleep in until 2 pm, and then drag yourself to church in the evening and try to look solemn", day. Few know this.
