God of Medicine’s Birthday is a holiday celebrated in Taiwan every year on the 15th day of the third lunar month; it falls on May 1 this year. This event celebrates the birthday of the deity Baosheng Dadi. Temples across Taiwan hold celebrations in his honor. Baosheng Dadi was an actual person who lived in the 10th century, even though he is now regarded as the deity of medicine. He was a talented Taoist practitioner and physician known for his miraculous healing abilities. In Taiwan’s municipality of Taipei and Fujian province, his birthday is frequently observed with celebrations and parades.
Erev Pesach (Israel)

Erev Pesach, or simply “The Passover ritual” which is celebrated this year on April 1 is an Israeli national holiday commemorating the feast of the Passover, a celebration of an event that took place in Biblical Israel. It is widely believed to have originated from a ritual that precedes the actual events of the Passover. In those times, to ensure the protection of a family home, an apotropaic rite was conducted where the blood of a slaughtered sheep was smeared on the lintels and doorposts to ward off demonic forces from the house. In the Biblical account, the Passover, the reason for the festival, came to life in Ancient Egypt, preceding the Exodus when God instructed the Israelites to smear lamb’s blood on their lintels and doorposts to spare them from the subsequent killing of all firstborns.
National That Sucks Day

National That Sucks Day, on April 15 each year, is an American holiday created by an American web content producer who rightly observed that the date on which the holiday is observed, April 15, is quite notable for several unfortunate events and occurrences. Two of the most notable tragic events associated with April 15 are the sinking of the “Titanic”, a ship built in the early 20th century, billed to be the biggest and most indestructible vessel ever made (it would later sink into the bottom of the Atlantic after hitting an iceberg). The infamous date also marks the day on which President Abraham Lincoln died.
