The History Behind Valentine’s Day 

Valentine’s Day is an annual holiday that celebrates love and romance. The most popular martyrology associated with Saint Valentine was that he was imprisoned for performing weddings for soldiers who were forbidden to marry and for ministering to Christians persecuted under the Roman Empire. According to legend, during his imprisonment he healed the daughter of his jailer, Asterius.   This prompted Asterius to convert to Christianity and Valentine restored the girl’s sight. Before his execution, it is alleged that he wrote her a letter signed “Your Valentine” as a farewell. The day was first associated with romantic love in the circle of Geoffrey Chaucer in the High Middle Ages, when the tradition of courtly love flourished.  In 18th-century England, it evolved into an occasion in which lovers expressed their love for each other by presenting flowers, offering confectionery, and sending greeting cards (known as “valentines”). In Europe, Saint Valentine’s Keys are given to lovers “as a romantic symbol and an invitation to unlock the giver’s heart.”  Valentine’s Day symbols that are used today include the heart-shaped outline, doves, and the figure of the winged Cupid. The Greeting Card Association estimates that over one billion valentine cards are sent each year, making Valentine’s Day the second largest card-sending holiday of the year.   So, when you give your loved ones a special star gift this Valentine’s Day, make sure it is something meaningful and thoughtful!
