Hi my steemians friends!
Today I want to talk about Carnival! Because life is a carnival!
🎉 🎉 🎉
🎭 Carnival
The Carnival is a festive Western Christian and Greek Orthodox season. Generally celebrated in February or early March, carnival involves a public celebration or parade. The inhabitants wear costumes or masks, makeup ... and meet to sing, dance, make music in the streets. It is a convivial and warm moment that allows to modify and shake conventions and social rules. I love it! 😍😍😍
🎭 Origins
The Carnival tradition dates back to the Paleolithic (minus 15,000 to 10,000 BC). It dates from the discovery of "the man in the mask" in the cave of the Three Brothers in Ariège in France. In my country of origin, I'm so proud 😆😆😆!
It is from the Middle Ages that the mask was used as a costume. Then, under the reign of Francis I, this accessory reappeared in the form of the "loup" (from Italy). Under Louis XIV, the ballet artists dancing for the King had a "loup" to masked their faces.
🎭 The modern Carnival
The Carnival has its origins in Europe where it developed before spreading around the world!
Nowadays, carnival masks can range from simple "wolf" to the most elaborate makeup or masks. But their function has remained the same: to hide the faces of the participants to allow them to have fun in complete freedom!

Life is like a carnival. The cotton candy is all of the sweet things in your life. The carnies are the unwanted junk. The rides represent all of the diversity and choices

My experience is with Mardi Gras, and I have always loved it. Easily one of my favorite holidays. I'd love to go visit the other versions around the world. Be sure to share your costume! My grandmother used to make all of the costumes for the kings/queens of the large mardi gras krewes in New Orleans.

Muy atractiva tu publicación, y me uno al comentario del amigo venezolano que te acaba de comentar. Es cierto que aquí , en mi país nos gusta la fiesta, y más aún cuando ésta celebra la vida, la alegría.
Noté que al inicio de la publicación escribes afirmando que es una fiesta cristiana occidental, en realidad es primera vez que leo que su origen es cristiano....
Excelente pulicación!!! Saludos desde Venezuela

They have a Mardi Gras event in Mobile Alabama where my daughter lives. Quite an event. They have what they call a King cake there that is just delicious. They put a plastic baby in it to represent the baby Jesus. The person who finds the baby in his piece of cake is blessed with having to buy the cake in the next year.

Another great article. Just a week back we took kids to the carnival. And it was a hell of a experience. Right from the food, stalls, concert to rides. Everything was super cool. I think it was an excellent time to socialize, gather and enjoy !

I've never heard of this before but I think I just added it to my bucket list. the costumes alone are fuckin' GORGEOUS. It sounds like a mushroom trip without the drugs. So many colors and beautiful things in one place at one time. Thank you for showing us some of the beauties around the world we may have yet to uncover.
