The third month of the year.
Very popular because the weather is changeable
For the Romans it was the month they started their military operations.
For common people, March is the month that swallows return and with them begins Spring.
On March 21 we have the vernal equinox where day and night have equal duration.
The weather in March is unstable for this and March is characterized with different funny names.
Nevertheless, Spring is just around the corner and the March rains are necessary for agriculture “if March makes two waters and April another one, joy to that farmer, which has many sown”
Especially for Greece, March is very important because on March 25 we celebrate in every city with a parade the raising of the flag of the revolution for the liberation from the Turks.
In modern times all Women also celebrate on March 8 and it is an opportunity to open a good wine.
