VALENTINE'S DAY IN AUSTRALIA

Valentine's Day is celebrated on the 14th of February in Australia and worldwide. This is a day to express love and appreciation for friends, family, and partners.
Australians celebrate Valentine's Day with a variety of activities, such as sending cards and gifts, romantic meals, flowers, and chocolates. There is also a popular tradition called 'Secret Valentines' in which people anonymously send small gifts to their loved ones.

There is some mystery around the history of Valentine’s Day, the most credible theory says that this special day is named after St. Valentine who is believed to be a priest who was martyred by Claudius II Gothicus over two centuries BC. There are several stories about different Valentines, but they were likely the same person.

A popular trait of this story is that St. Valentine was secretly marrying couples to save the husbands from war, that’s how his name became associated with love.

Despite the origin of this tradition, St. Valentine is generally not representative of this day, Cupid with his bow and arrow, along with red hearts and red roses have become the most iconic symbol of Valentine’s Day around the world.
