Beautiful Ladies ❤️on Orthodox Epiphany bathing -7 °C ? 2022

Orthodox Christians dipped into icy waters on Tuesday to mark the eve of Epiphany, ending their 12-day Christmas period. Most people take the plunge at midnight or on the day of the feast itself, which falls on January 19. But some were seen braving the ritual the day before Epiphany, submerging themselves into holes carved into ice to commemorate the baptism of Jesus Christ. Most people do it for fun, health, and tradition. A minority of people do this for religious reasons.
