Some Catholic Observances-customs of St. John’s Death
Because the forerunner of Christ, St. John the Baptist, whom the Lord Himself had called the greatest man born of woman, was killed as a result of Herod’s birthday revels, the Byzantine Catholic Churches observe today as a strict fast: no parties, no luxury foods, no drink. We see where these things can lead. Several popular local customs have arisen to mark this day among various Eastern Catholic countries and villages.
In various places, people may:
• Avoid eating anything on round plates, since Salome asked for John’s head “on a platter” (Mk 6:25). Use bowls instead.
• Avoid eating any round fruits or vegetables (they resemble a head).
• Avoid eating anything that requires the use of knives or anything that cuts.
• Avoid eating or drinking anything red (they remind us of blood and the sacrifice that John the Baptist made for truth and morality).
