How do we choose a name for our baby? Often we rely on the popularity of the name, on its exoticism, or through this we express our deep respect for relatives. In all these cases, we rely only on external factors and do not think, and perhaps do not even know that the name directly affects the fate of the baby!

To select the ideal name, which will be a powerful energy support in the life of a child, it is necessary to take into account a lot of factors.

By date of birth, January 13, you can calculate only some of the qualities of the child

For example, according to astrological systems (calculation for 13.1.2016 12-00 Moscow)
The sign of the zodiac is Capricorn, the year is the fiery monkey.
You can calculate the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, other planets, Lunar nodes, the ascendant and the entire natal chart of the child.

And to say in general terms what will be the character of the child. But this is only a small, superficial part of the analysis of the essence of character. It is also necessary to take into account the influence of parents, who largely unconsciously and consciously change the character of the child. It is from parents that the child removes most of the patterns of behavior and relationships, at an early age copies unconscious stereotypes and takes the energy of parents for development.

And even if a thorough analysis is carried out, not astrologically, but through a direct analysis of the subtle plans and structure of the soul, to determine the life task of the child (what needs to be developed, supported and realized), the question of choosing the right name and evaluating the effectiveness of the influence of the name still remains adequately unresolved.

You can use name day data to see which of the prominent saints was born on this or neighboring days. And what name would you like.

You can add up all the numbers of this day, then again add up and count a certain number of life, the number of character, the number of fate.

Many different systems for miscalculation.

If you have a strong intuition, try choosing 2-3 names. Then send your suggestions to

Every parent worries about their child and wishes from the bottom of their hearts that life is pleasant and safe. And if choosing a name for a child can improve his fate, why not take advantage of such a unique opportunity.

Approach the assessment of the effectiveness of the impact of the name on fate consciously.
Give your daughter a name that will safely and positively influence her character, condition and life.

On the first day of the year, the church celebrates the memory of St. Elijah of the Caves, nicknamed Chobotok. Elijah was a native of the city of Murom, folk and folk legend identified him with the famous hero Ilya Muromets, about whom Russian epics told.

The Savior was born in the reign of Emperor Augustus in the city of Bethlehem. During the census, everyone had to be in the place where his family originated. Arriving in Bethlehem, the Virgin Mary and righteous Joseph did not find free places in hotels and stopped outside the city in a cave intended for keeping livestock. At midnight, the news of the birth of the Savior from the jubilant angels came to the shepherds, who came to worship the God-man. The feast in honor of this event was established in apostolic times, but until the 4th century. it was connected with the celebration of the Epiphany.

Having learned from the Magi about the birth of a new King, Herod ordered to kill all babies under two years old, hoping that among them would be the Divine Infant, in whom he saw his rival.

On this day, according to the Old Testament law, the Lord accepted circumcision, which was established for all male babies as a sign of God's Covenant with the forefather Abraham and his descendants.

On the same day, the memory of the Archbishop of Caesarea of ​​Cappadocia is celebrated.

Basil lived in the IV century, in Constantinople and Athens, he received an excellent education. Returning to Caesarea, he taught rhetoric, then was baptized and embarked on the path of an ascetic life. Together with his friend Gregory the Theologian, he retired to the desert to devote his life to God. Subsequently, the saint was ordained a presbyter, during the reign of Emperor Valens, a supporter of the Arians, he became an archbishop and made great efforts to protect his flock from heresy. He composed the order of the Liturgy, wrote Discourses on the Six Days, on the Psalms, as well as a collection of monastic rules.

January 15 is the day of the repose (1883) and the second finding of the relics (1991) of one of the most beloved Russian saints among the people -. Having taken monastic vows at the age of 27, the monk labored until the end of his life in the Sarov monastery, or in the forest wilderness. For his prayer feat, he was honored with repeated visits to the Queen of Heaven. Saint Seraphim departed to the Lord during prayer before the icon of the Mother of God. The monk was glorified as a saint in 1903. After the October Revolution, the relics of the saint disappeared and were discovered only in 1991, in the storerooms of the Museum of the History of Religion and Atheism, which was located in the building of the Kazan Cathedral in Leningrad.

January 17 - Council of 70 apostles of Christ, chosen by the Lord to proclaim the gospel to the whole universe.

The memory of these apostles is also celebrated separately during the year, and this holiday was established in order to show the equality of each of the seventy and thereby prevent disagreements in their veneration.

January 19 is celebrated - the twelfth holiday, established in honor of the Baptism of our Lord Jesus Christ in the waters of the Jordan River and in honor of the appearance during this event of the Holy Trinity. The Father spoke from heaven about the Son, the Son was baptized by the holy Forerunner of the Lord John, and the Holy Spirit descended upon the Son in the form of a dove. The next day, the Cathedral of the Forerunner and Baptist of the Lord John is celebrated - the one who served the cause of the Baptism of Christ, laying his hand on the head of the Savior.

On January 24, we commemorate the Monk Theodosius the Great, who became the founder of cenobitic monasteries. He was born at the end of the 5th century. in Cappadocia. For about 30 years the saint lived in the Palestinian desert, fasting and praying. Those who wanted to live under his leadership constantly came to him, as a result, a cenobitic monastery, or Lavra, existed according to the charter of Basil the Great.

The Holy Martyr Tatiana is commemorated on January 25. Tatiana, the daughter of a Roman consul, refused marriage, wanting to devote her life to the Lord. She was made a deaconess in one of the Roman churches and served God, caring for the sick and helping those in need. During the reign of Emperor Alexander Severus (between 222 and 235), Tatiana was martyred for Christ, refusing to sacrifice to the pagan gods and enduring terrible tortures.

On January 27, the church remembers the Enlightener of Georgia. She was born around 280 in Cappadocia into a noble, pious family. One day, Nina saw in a dream the Most Holy Theotokos, who handed her a cross from a vine and sent her to Iberia (Georgia) with an apostolic service. Nina came to Georgia in 319 and made a lot of efforts to enlighten this country - five years later Christianity was established in Georgia.

January 30 is the day of memory, the famous ascetic, the founder of hermitage, called the father of monasticism. Anthony was born in Egypt in 251. After the death of his parents, who inspired him with love for God and piety, he began an ascetic life. He had to fight the hardest temptations and attacks of unclean forces, but with God's help he overcame the tricks of the devil and went into the depths of the Thebaid desert to serve the Lord all alone. The saint spent 85 years in desert solitude, his example was followed by many of those who wished to spend their lives in an ascetic feat for the sake of the Lord.

It is important to note that on January 13, name days are celebrated only for those who received male names Michael and Peter. By the same names, following the old Orthodox tradition naming children, you need to name the boys born today.

Since there are no female names in the calendar for this day, for girls born on this date, it is necessary to select the names of those patron saints whom the Church honors on the eighth day after their birth, as they did in the old days.

If presented for a given day female names do not like it, you can move the name day to the fortieth day after birth, when, as required by the Orthodox canon, the child is supposed to be baptized.

The main birthday people today are Michaels, since it is on January 13 that the Church honors their Guardian Angel, the holy martyr Father Michael (Berezin).

Under his patronage are all those who are now celebrating name days. If a newborn boy is given the name Michael, then he will receive from his intercessor not only protection, but also great strength, as well as the best features inherent in the name.

So Mikhailov is distinguished by intelligence, wit, a penchant for introspection and serious reflection. For such people, nothing is impossible, if only they believe in themselves.

When to celebrate the name day and how to name the child correctly - the saints and the Orthodox holiday calendar for 2019 will tell you. The latter also contains a list of the names of the holy new martyrs, so the list of birthdays in it is more extensive.

Michael was from the family of a clergyman. Deciding to follow in the footsteps of his father, he went to study at the theological seminary, where he studied for only a year, and then voluntarily left.

He preferred teaching in the classroom to serving in the church, where he went from being a psalm reader to being ordained to the priesthood. Since there were many Mari among his parishioners, he learned their language in order to reach their hearts.

Fr Michael devoted much time to self-education, read a huge amount of religious literature, so he could answer any question of his parishioners, sincerely tried to help everyone.

For his wisdom, kindness and dedication, he was respected by others. The enormous authority of Father Mikhail among the population aroused fears among representatives of the Soviet authorities.

Outside the window, frosts are fierce, winds are blowing and a swirl is sweeping. This is in a year. And children born in this harsh month are distinguished by courage and patience. They are as constant and frosty as the weather in January.

But the fate of the crumbs is reflected not only in the month of birth, but also, of course, the name. Therefore, it is important to choose names for girls and boys born in January.
