The tradition of Mother’s Day can be traced back to spring festivals in ancient Greece which paid tribute to the mother of their gods. The mother’s name was Rhea, the Titaness daughter of the earth goddess Gaia and the sky god Uranus, Gaia’s son in Greek mythology. But the clearest modern reason for celebrating Mother’s Day is linked back to the early Christian festival known as Mothering Sunday. During the 1600s in England, the fourth Sunday of Lent which was two Sundays before Easter Sunday became known as Mothering Sunday. On this day, Christians honored Mary, the mother of Jesus Christ. They would do this by decorating churches with flowers as well as jewels. Soon thereafter, the Mothering Sunday celebrations started to include the celebration of actual mothers as well and not just Mary. During this day, maids, as well as servants, were permitted to go to their homes and pay a visit to their mothers. During the celebrations, families would eat lots of food and give small presents to their mothers.
Many other countries celebrate their own Mother’s Day at different times throughout the year. For example, the United Kingdom celebrates it on the fourth Sunday of Lent but in Norway, it is celebrated on the second Sunday of February. Meanwhile in Egypt, Mother’s Day is celebrated on the first day of spring. Besides the United States, the Philippines, Japan, Denmark, Finland, Italy, Turkey, Australia, and Belgium celebrate Mother’s Day on the second Sunday of May. In Thailand, Mother’s Day is celebrated in August. This day coincides with the birthday of their current Queen surrogate. In Ethiopia, Mother’s Day is celebrated with large feasting as well as singing and dancing. In Brazil, Mother’s Day is the second biggest holiday with Christmas being the first and in Serbia, they celebrate the entire family in the same month. While Mother’s Day is celebrated in December along with Father’s Day as well as Children’s Day. In Germany Mother’s Day is called Muttertag and is usually celebrated on the second Sunday in May unless it falls on Pentecost.
