Plugul Mare - 31 dec 2011
In dimineata de 31 decembrie pornesc sa colinde adultii, formind asa-numitele cete ale Plugului mare, la sarbatoare participand nu numai tinerii, ci si varstnicii.
Plugul pus pe roti si impodobit cu brazi decorati cu panglici colorate, ciucuri, covrigi si mere rosii, avand in varf un stergar brodat, acesta confera ritualului un statut special. El este tras de doua pana la patru perechi de boi sau de cai, ori tractor. Odata intrati in curtile gospodarilor, vataful, adica seful cetei, incepe sa recite Plugusorul, acompaniat de sunetele buhaiului si ale fluierului. La final, flacaii trag brazda cu plugul in mijlocul curtii, in semn de belsug. Acest obicei isi are radacinile in stravechea credinta dacica a perpetuarii vietii, a noului inceput.
