The Origins of Mother’s Day
Although the particular importance since the beginning of time is given to mothers , the idea of devoting them a feast day has emerged during the time of the Greeks and Romans. In Greece , they already had the custom of celebrating the two goddesses Rhea and Cybele, Mother of Gods divine . Every year at the beginning of spring , a grand ceremony is organized in their honor. In Rome , they celebrate the feast of Matraliae (from the Latin mater ).
It is therefore we found the traces of Mother’s Day from the fifteenth century. Indeed, in England it was accustomed to celebrate Mothering Sunday the 4th Sunday of Lent. Then it was the turn of the US to create a special day for mothers. Proposed by a young woman who has just lost his mother , the official day in honor of World Moms was established in 1907 by the US government.

In France, it is said that it was Napoleon who had for the first time given the idea of inventing a moms day. But it was only in 1918 that the city of Lyon inaugurated the first Mother’s Day to honor the mothers and wives who lost their husbands and son during the war. This day then formalized in 1929 and registered in the calendar in 1941 on the 2nd Sunday of May.
