Few women know that it is customary to go to church not just in a headdress, but in a scarf of a certain color corresponding to the event.
A headscarf is considered an integral part of a woman’s outfit for going to temple. Naturally, no one will kick out a woman from their church if the color of her headdress does not match the holiday service. If the girl is decently dressed and covers her head, this is quite enough. However true believers must adhere to traditions and canons.
What scarf should you not wear?
Easter is a great holiday for all Christians. On this day, women dressed in their most elegant dresses and scarves. Moreover, each festive event was marked with a special color of the headdress.
There is even a certain reminder, following which a girl will not make a mistake with her choice of color.
A reminder for choosing the shade of a headdress for women
To put aside an accessory that should not be worn on Easter Sunday, we offer a detailed reminder.
- White.Snow-white linen is worn only on the occasion of great Christian holidays; Easter is one of these.
- Red. Will be needed for all subsequent Easter services.
- Yellow. Worn for ordinary Sunday services.
- Green. Mainly used for services on Palm Sunday and Trinity.
- Blue. Suitable for worship on the feasts of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
- Violet. To commemorate the Life-giving Cross of the Lord.
- Black. On days of mourning and during Lent.
- Burgundy and scarlet. On Maundy Thursday.
- With print, floral. Designed for “dirty work” for women helping in the temple.
Important! For women who do not regularly attend all services in the temple, two types of headdress will be sufficient. Light colors are suitable for all festive church events, and dark colors are suitable for days of fasting and mourning.
Even if a woman wears a black headscarf to a service on the occasion of the holiday, no one will kick her out of the temple. But this will disrupt the overall picture of the celebration and put the girl in a bad light. It is still better to take into account the color of the headdress in advance when choosing your outfit.
What scarves are best for visiting church on Easter?
The choice of scarf for the Easter service depends entirely on the woman herself. But you still need to adhere to certain rules and not anger others with your pretentious or frankly obscene appearance.
Not suitable for Easter Sunday
To do this, you need to exclude from your church wardrobe canvases with geometric designs or fashionable prints, as well as dubious symbols in the form of crosses, skulls and the like. It is worth putting aside dark-colored scarves, as well as green ones, which are worn on completely different days.
Can be worn
It's better to give preference light and weightless scarf, which can be successfully draped so that it does not slip from the hair. This will allow you to plunge into the festive atmosphere without being distracted by such trifles in the form of the constant return of the scarf to its original place.
Most worshipers note that for such a great holiday as Easter, only a plain snow-white scarf is suitable. It most closely matches the solemn atmosphere of the event.
