Recognition Around the World for Mothers' Day

By Andrea Cagle


The Mothers Day celebration is really well-known to most people as an occasion of celebrating the love and appreciation felt for mommies everywhere. More and more widely this also means celebrating the people in our lives who have been like mothers to us as well. Mothers Day is celebrated at numerous times between cultures, and this happens for number of reasons; here are some quick facts about the observance of Mother's Day at home and abroad!

The festivities of the present- day U.S. & many other countries date back to an essay penned by Julia Ward Hose in the 1870s, & later when Anna Jarvis promoted setting an official celebration in the early 1900s. The earliest origins of the modern Mothers Day, however, may lie in the society of the ancient Greeks. The Greeks held a festival in those days that functioned to honor mother goddesses, and human mothers by extension, every year around the vernal equinox. After the Romans took power later on, they continued this tradition.

In the United Kingdom, the date on which Mother's Day is celebrated each year is related to the timing of Lent, whereas Canada and the United States always celebrate on the second Sunday of May. The second Sunday of May is, in fact, the choice of 82 different countries on six continents. Overall, May is by far the most popular month in which to set Mother's Day, with 104 countries choosing to celebrate sometime during the fifth month.

In other nations such as Bulgaria & Ukraine, Mothers Day occasions take place on March 8th to coincide with the observance of International Women's Day. Still other locations, including Egypt, observe Mothers Day on March 21, the spring equinox; this may just be a throwback to the original celebrations so many centuries ago. In the same manner, other days are frequently chosen to coincide with the local culture's established festivities of mothers, much like many other well known holidays.

Mother's Days in many countries are major gift-giving occasions, & there can be a lot of pressure to formulate the absolute perfect gift. Jewelry is always a safe bet, & there are many options of special mother's rings and other mother's jewelry available, which is customized with the birthstone of each child.
