On September 29, Christians celebrate the day of Saint Michael the Archangel. The leader of the heavenly armies wears armor, a shield and a spear, holding a sword in one hand and a two-armed balance for the accounting of souls in the other, trampling the devil in the earthly world.
Mihály the Winged Angel, at the "gate" of the autumn point, the "dying" of nature, the third corner point of the sacred year, the equinox in autumn, i.e. "the evening of the year", with the outer light turning inward, steadfastly as the "traveller and advocate" of the soul stands at the "turning inward", increasingly dark point of the cycle of the year. Balance…
Mihály, a true soul guide. Who is the weigher of human souls, the judge of the dead, and their otherworldly advocate. He is the one who also took Mary to heaven on his horse on the Milky Way, on the highway of Heaven to the Kingdom of Heaven.
The gate is not meant to shut you out, but to show you the way in! - the real way that Mihály shows...
BECAUSE MICHAEL IN THE THIRD "GATE" OF THE AGE, WITH THE PALLOS OF JUDGMENT AND THE SCALES OF TRUTH IN HIS HAND, COUNTS OVER HUMAN NATURE AND ALSO SHOWS THE WAY IN EARTHLY EXISTENCE.
He entrusts the earthly mortal to consider what he has to overcome and overcome by learning from the mistakes of the past.
With the coming of the end of the agricultural year, and after accounting for crops and animals in the peasant calendar, the 40-day time of comfort until Catherine's Day, the little carnival, began. This was the time when going to the fair and the fair began, and the balls and entertainments were held then. And as the ancients believed - with the help of "Szent Mihály Wine Strainer" even the new wine matured on Michaelmas Day. A series of joyous celebrations began, because at this time everyone found their way home from the outside world...
However, for Hungarians, this day means something else: the first victorious battle of the Hungarian revolution and freedom struggle of 1848-49, where Jellasics chased the Croatian Ban armies almost to Vienna after the Battle of Pákozd, Lieutenant General János Móga proclaimed for all time that a small nation with his love of freedom, he once again stepped onto the stage of world history and "even though we couldn't bear the impossible" for the silenced Europe ("shame on him") - as before and so many times since then - we set an example of heroism and courage.
The archangel took the souls of our heroes to heaven on his horse! Without consideration!
