The Dark Origins Of Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day is a time to celebrate

romance and love and kissy-face fealty. But

the origins of this festival of candy and

cupids are actually dark, bloody — and a bit

muddled.

Though no one has pinpointed the exact

origin of the holiday, one good place to

start is ancient Rome, where men hit on

women by, well, hitting them.

Those Wild And Crazy Romans

From Feb. 13 to 15, the Romans celebrated

the feast of Lupercalia. The men sacrificed a

goat and a dog, then whipped women with

the hides of the animals they had just slain.

The Roman romantics "were drunk. They

were naked," says Noel Lenski, a historian

at the University of Colorado at Boulder.

Young women would actually line up for the

men to hit them, Lenski says. They believed

this would make them fertile.

The brutal fete included a matchmaking

lottery, in which young men drew the

names of women from a jar. The couple

would then be, um, coupled up for the

duration of the festival — or longer, if the

match was right.

The ancient Romans may also be

responsible for the name of our modern

day of love. Emperor Claudius II executed

two men — both named Valentine — on

Feb. 14 of different years in the 3rd century

A.D. Their martyrdom was honored by the

Catholic Church with the celebration of St.

Valentine's Day.

Later, Pope Gelasius I muddled things in the

5th century by combining St. Valentine's

Day with Lupercalia to expel the pagan

rituals. But the festival was more of a

theatrical interpretation of what it had once

been. Lenski adds, "It was a little more of a

drunken revel, but the Christians put

clothes back on it. That didn't stop it from

being a day of fertility and love."

Around the same time, the Normans

celebrated Galatin's Day. Galatin meant

"lover of women." That was likely confused

with St. Valentine's Day at some point, in

part because they sound alike.

Shakespeare In Love

As the years went on, the holiday grew

sweeter. Chaucer and Shakespeare

romanticized it in their work, and it gained

popularity throughout Britain and the rest

of Europe. Handmade paper cards became

the tokens-du-jour in the Middle Ages.

Eventually, the tradition made its way to the

New World. The industrial revolution

ushered in factory-made cards in the 19th

century. And in 1913, Hallmark Cards of

Kansas City, Mo., began mass producing

valentines. February has not been the same

since.

Today, the holiday is big business: According

to market research firm IBIS World,

Valentine's Day sales reached $17.6 billion

last year; this year's sales are expected to

total $18.6 billion.

But that commercialization has spoiled the

day for many. Helen Fisher, a sociologist at

Rutgers University, says we have only

ourselves to blame.

Page 7: THE HAPPY WHISPERER NEWSLETTER...1 1 THE HAPPY WHISPERER NEWSLETTER RM BEGG KYNETON AGED CARE ISSUE 2. FEBRUARY 2017 RM Begg Kyneton Aged Care Inc. 27-35 Epping Street, Kyneton, VIC

"This isn't a command performance," she

says. "If people didn't want to buy Hallmark

cards, they would not be bought, and

Hallmark would go out of business."

And so the celebration of Valentine's Day

goes on, in varied ways.

Many will break the bank buying jewelry

and flowers for their beloveds. Others will

celebrate in a SAD (that's Single Awareness

Day) way, dining alone and binging on

self-gifted chocolates. A few may even be

spending this day the same way the early

Romans did.

But let's not go there.

“Don’t even

think about

it buster!”
