Michaelmas Lore

Michaelmas Lore Image
* If you eat goose on Michaelmas Day, you will not be short of money all year round.
* A Michaelmas rot comes ne'er in the pot.
* If St Michael brings many acorns, Christmas will cover the fields with snow.
* Michaelmas chickens and parsons' daughters never come to good.
* Three things that never come to any good: Christmas pigs, Michaelmas fowls, and parsons' daughters.

* At Michaelmas time, or a little before,

Half an apple goes to the core;

At Christmas time, or a little after,

A crab in the hedge,

And thanks to the rafter. * So many days the moon is old on St Michael's day, so many floods after.
* Harvest comes as long before Michaelmas as dog roses bloom before Midsummer.
* On Michaelmas Day the devil puts his foot on the blackberries.
* St Michael's rain does not stay long in the sky.
* If it does not rain on St Michael's and Gallus [Oct 16], a dry spring is indicated for the next year.
