Do you know who St. Valentine was?:
a) a priest in the Roman Empire who helped persecuted Christians during the reign of Claudius II, was thrown in jail and later beheaded on Feb. 14.

b) a Catholic bishop of Terni who was beheaded, also during the reign of Claudius II.

c) someone who secretly married couples when marriage was forbidden, or suffered in Africa, or wrote letters to his jailer’s daughter, and was probably beheaded.

d) all, some, or possibly none of the above.

If you guessed d), give yourself a box of chocolates. Although the mid-February holiday celebrating love and lovers remains wildly popular, the confusion over its origins led the Catholic Church, in 1969, to drop St. Valentine’s Day from the Roman calendar of official, worldwide Catholic feasts. (Those highly sought-after days are reserved for saints with more clear historical record. After all, the saints are real individuals for us to imitate.) Some parishes, however, observe the feast of St. Valentine.

The roots of St. Valentine’s Day lie in the ancient Roman festival of Lupercalia, which was celebrated on Feb. 15. For 800 years the Romans had dedicated this day to the god Lupercus. On Lupercalia, a young man would draw the name of a young woman in a lottery and would then keep the woman as a sexual companion for the year.

Pope Gelasius I was, understandably, less than thrilled with this custom. So he changed the lottery to have both young men and women draw the names of saints whom they would then emulate for the year (a change that no doubt disappointed a few young men). Instead of Lupercus, the patron of the feast became Valentine. For Roman men, the day continued to be an occasion to seek the affections of women, and it became a tradition to give out handwritten messages of admiration that included Valentine’s name.

There was also a conventional belief in Europe during the Middle Ages that birds chose their partners in the middle of February. Thus the day was dedicated to love, and people observed it by writing love letters and sending small gifts to their beloved. Legend has it that Charles, duke of Orleans, sent the first real Valentine card to his wife in 1415, when he was imprisoned in the Tower of London. (He, however, was not beheaded, and died a half-century later of old age.)

We would like to thank everybody who took the time to enter the competition. We received entries from all over Australia, as well as people from Canada, Europe and Asia. With all those entrants we were wondering what would happen if an overseas winner emerged. Well, as chance would have it, when the draw finally took place, the winning entry was from Rachel of Reedy Creek, on Australia’s Gold Coast.

Rachel is just one of the family members who frequently visits the Burleigh Showcase Jewellers Store at Stockland Burleigh Heads. Congratulations Rachel, we hope that you enjoy the challenge of deciding which Pandora Bracelet and/or beads that you will finally select to take advantage of the Pandora Jewellery $100 Gift voucher that you won in our November Pandora Promotion.

Then you can select the bead of your choice, click the position on the bracelet that you would like the bead to be placed, click the mouse, and start building your Pandora Bracelet
