Perhaps not everyone knows, however, that <strong>February 15 is the day dedicated to singles<\/strong>, to those who are lonely and looking for a soul mate, the love of their life. The patron saint of this day is <strong>St. Faustinus,<\/strong> a young Roman knight who was imprisoned, tortured, and suffered martyrdom under Emperor Hadrian. As with St. Valentine, it is not in the end of this saint that we should look for the origins of his patronage as much as in his life and name. In fact, it seems that St. Faustinus, besides being a valiant horseman, was particularly good at helping unmarried young women find husbands, even despite their meager dowry.<\/p>\n<div class=\"link-product\">\n<div class=\"blocco-immagine\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4966 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.holyart.it\/couk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2024\/01\/St-Valentins-day.jpg\" alt=\"St Valentine's day\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" data-kale-share-title=\"St. Faustinus: why has he become the saint of singles?\" data-kale-share-url=\"https:\/\/blog.holyart.it\/couk\/?p=4965\" \/><\/div>\n<div class=\"blocco-contenuto\">\n<div class=\"blocco-acquista\">Buy Now:<\/div>\n<div class=\"blocco-titolo\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.holyart.com\/special-occasions\/st.-valentines-day?page=1&amp;_gl=1*u6axcj*_gcl_au*MjEzMjgwNzUyLjE3MDI1NjUxODE.*_ga*MTQ4NzE4MjM0Mi4xNjk0Nzg4MTQz*_ga_W18MV136NH*MTcwNTQ3ODkyNC4yNDkuMS4xNzA1NDg0MzIzLjAuMC4w\">St. Valentine&#8217;s Day<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"blocco-descrizione\">a wide selection of articles and gift ideas to celebrate this special day with your loved one.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Let&#8217;s see who this saint was and how the tradition of the Feb. 15 feast of singles came about.<\/p>\n<h2>The story of St. Faustinus and Jovita<\/h2>\n<p>Actually, one cannot talk about St. Faustinus without also talking about his brother, <strong>Jovita<\/strong>. The two were born in <strong>Brescia<\/strong>, Italy, in the second century AD, and like many of their young peers belonging to the nobility they embarked on a military career. They both became <strong>knights<\/strong>, demonstrating great bravery and military prowess, so much so that iconography has never ceased to depict them wearing Roman military garb while holding a sword. Their lives changed drastically when they met <strong>St. Apollonius, bishop of Brescia<\/strong>. The holy man won them over with his personality and converted them, leading them both to <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.holyart.com\/special-occasions\/baptism\">Baptism<\/a><\/strong>. Not only that: impressed by their oratorical skills and their abilities as preachers, he encouraged both to set out on the <strong>path of evangelization<\/strong>, appointing <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.holyart.com\/blog\/religious-items\/how-to-become-a-deacon-duties-and-education\/\">Faustinus a presbyter and Jovita a deacon<\/a><\/strong>. This is how they are depicted in sacred art, as an alternative to military garb.<\/p>\n<div class=\"link-article\">\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4967 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.holyart.it\/couk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2024\/01\/How-to-become-a-diacon.jpg\" alt=\"How to become a diacon\" width=\"150\" height=\"99\" data-kale-share-title=\"St. Faustinus: why has he become the saint of singles?\" data-kale-share-url=\"https:\/\/blog.holyart.it\/couk\/?p=4965\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"leggi-anche\">Read more:<\/div>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.holyart.com\/blog\/religious-items\/how-to-become-a-deacon-duties-and-education\/\">How to become a deacon: duties and education<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\nWho is a deacon and what does he do? How to become a deacon? Let\u2019s find out more about this figure that has always been present in the Catholic Church, and has important and solemn duties&#8230;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Unfortunately, these were years of harsh <strong>persecution<\/strong>. The Roman nobles of Brescia frowned upon the preaching of the two young men, and they invoked the intervention of Italicus, governor of Rhaetia, to eliminate them to preserve public order.<\/p>\n<p>Undertaking the persecution with the approval of the Emperor Hadrian, Italicus ordered the two knights to sacrifice to the pagan gods, and when they refused, he had them imprisoned. Hadrian himself, returning from his campaign in Gaul, wanted to attend their trial, and again he enjoined them to worship the Sun god. Faustinus and Jovita not only refused, but beat the statue of the idol, and for this blasphemous act Hadrian condemned them to death. Led into the circus they were locked in a cage with some tigers, but lo and behold, instead of attacking them the beasts snuggled at their feet like tame cubs. At that sight many of those present were converted, including Aphra, the governor&#8217;s wife. The latter, furious, ordered that the two knights be flayed alive and burned at the stake. But not even the fire dared to touch them, and this new miracle caused further conversions. Transferred to Milan they were imprisoned and tortured, then sent to Rome, and led into the Colosseum, but once again no vicious animal touched them. After further failed execution attempts, the two were brought back to Brescia and <strong>beheaded on February 15<\/strong>. They are patrons of the city.<\/p>\n<div class=\"link-article\">\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4968 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.holyart.it\/couk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2024\/01\/Holy-Martyrs.jpg\" alt=\"Holy Martyrs: sacrificing one\u2019s life in the name of God\" width=\"150\" height=\"99\" data-kale-share-title=\"St. Faustinus: why has he become the saint of singles?\" data-kale-share-url=\"https:\/\/blog.holyart.it\/couk\/?p=4965\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"leggi-anche\">Read more:<\/div>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.holyart.com\/blog\/religious-items\/holy-martyrs-sacrificing-ones-life-in-the-name-of-god\/\">Holy Martyrs: sacrificing one\u2019s life in the name of God<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\nThe Holy Martyrs are men and women, often very young, who sacrificed their lives for the love of God, and for this reason, they deserved beatification.

Add to this the assonance between St. Faustinus and St. Valentine, but also the etymology of the name Faustinus, which comes from the Latin &#8220;faustus,&#8221; <em>propitious, bringing good luck<\/em>. The Romans held in high regard the division of the <em>faustian and nefarious<\/em> days of each month, considering the latter dangerous because of negative astral influences. In this case, St. Faustine&#8217;s Day could be the lucky one for finding a soul mate.<\/p>\n<div class=\"link-product\">\n<div class=\"blocco-immagine\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4969 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.holyart.it\/couk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2024\/01\/AMEN-ring-in-925-silver-with-pink-finishing-heart-and-white-rhinestone.jpg\" alt=\"AMEN ring in 925 silver with pink finishing, heart and white rhinestone\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" data-kale-share-title=\"St. Faustinus: why has he become the saint of singles?\" data-kale-share-url=\"https:\/\/blog.holyart.it\/couk\/?p=4965\" \/><\/div>\n<div class=\"blocco-contenuto\">\n<div class=\"blocco-acquista\">Buy Now:<\/div>\n<div class=\"blocco-titolo\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.holyart.com\/religious-items\/prayer-rings\/ring-amen-in-925-silver-rose-heart-white-cubic-zirconia?_gl=1*6i919z*_gcl_au*MjEzMjgwNzUyLjE3MDI1NjUxODE.*_ga*MTQ4NzE4MjM0Mi4xNjk0Nzg4MTQz*_ga_W18MV136NH*MTcwNTQ3ODkyNC4yNDkuMS4xNzA1NDg0NzkwLjAuMC4w\">Ring AMEN in 925 silver, rose heart white cubic zirconia<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"blocco-descrizione\">The sterling silver faith ring is available in different sizes.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>February 15 celebrates St. Faustinus, the patron saint of singles in spite of himself.
