homeschoolmom Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Oh... well, as far as I know there is no Catholic significance. Only silliness and birthdays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puellapaschalis Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 It's Armistice Day, but I'm not sure that's observed on Phatmass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chloeaustyn Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 [quote name='puellapaschalis' post='1677323' date='Oct 14 2008, 03:51 PM']It's Armistice Day, but I'm not sure that's observed on Phatmass [/quote] Ahhh, that would make so much more sense! I was always told you were supposed to make a wish at 11:11, and my Google search as well came up with relative nonsense. Now I don't feel so weird about why I insist on wishing every 11:11.. I always start it with a Hail Mary and make it some gift of virtue or plea of defense for my future husband as revealed by the end of my novena to St. Joseph.. he even tossed around the idea of getting married on 11/11/2011 once and has no idea about my daily wishes for him. Needless to say I melted.. but still wondered what the big deal was about the numbers. Armistice Day: my new answer if anyone asks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puellapaschalis Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Making a wish on Armistice Day? [i]Never[/i] heard of that When I was growing up it was all about proudly wearing our poppies, visiting the graves of those who came back, visiting the vets, watching the ceremonies and observing silence. They don't do it here - seeing as NL wasn't in the Great War, it would be a bit odd, but I miss it nonetheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lil Red Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 +J.M.J.+ from wikipedia: 1918 - World War I ends: Germany signs an armistice agreement with the Allies in a railroad car outside of Compiègne in France. The war officially stops at 11:00 (The eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month). I think it would be cool to wear a poppy on that day in remembrance of the ending of WWI.

Lil Red Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 +J.M.J.+ also from wikipedia: Twins Day (1987) in Taiwan: a festival for biological twins and other multiples. The eleventh day of the eleventh month (11-11) consists of the same numeral in pairs and symbolizes their characteristics.
