Why Is Valentine's Day Celebrated?

The origins of Valentine's Day trace back to ancient Rome and the festival of Lupercalia, a mid-February celebration of fertility and spring. Over time, the tradition blended with Christian stories of St. Valentine, a priest who defied Emperor Claudius II by secretly marrying young couples after marriage was banned for soldiers. He was later imprisoned and executed on February 14, 270 AD. Legend says he signed a farewell note to a jailer's daughter as "From your Valentine," inspiring the tradition of exchanging cards. By the Middle Ages, poets like Geoffrey Chaucer associated February 14 with romantic love. The practice of sending love letters flourished in the 1400s, and mass-produced Valentine's cards became common by the 19th century. Today, chocolates, roses, Cupid and romantic dinners remain enduring symbols of the occasion.
