The night time is the water of San Giovanni. In accordance with legend, this night the basin with herbs and flowers dipped in water should be displayed to be used tomorrow morning for laundry and purification.
In accordance with custom, this night, after sundown, a combined salad of herbs and flowers is harvested within the fields. The harvest should then be positioned in a basin to be left exterior in a single day to soak up the morning dew. Tomorrow morning, June 24, San Giovanni water can be utilized to scrub fingers and face, as a proprietary hearth and purification. In accordance with custom, water has therapeutic and protecting properties, brings well being, luck and prosperity, prevents ailments and disasters and protects area crops.
