National Thank God It’s Monday Day encourages you to love this day of the week! It has so many possibilities, yet most people find it difficult and even negative. All because it starts after the weekend. Doesn’t it deserve some respect?
History
According to the international standard ISO 8601, which describes the date and time format, Monday is the first day of the week. The first edition was published in 1988, replacing the norms used earlier. Notably, some countries have not adopted this standard, using Sunday as the first day of the week. During the development of paganism, Sunday was considered the first day, but it was a day off because of the Resurrection of the Lord. People were released from work affairs, did not do household chores, and rested.
There are many superstitions associated with Monday. For example, it was not recommended to formalize a marriage, start serious events, pay off debts, or invite guests today. Sometimes this is due to the belief that when creating the world, the Almighty never said “good” on this day. Believe it or not – it’s everyone’s choice. Astrologers consider Monday the most sensual day, saying that you need to limit yourself as much as possible from irritating factors. Even the National Day was invented to destroy stereotypes!
