Holidays October 6

Insurer Day

The insurance market in the Russian Federation is constantly developing and improving, offering clients a sufficient number of various services. This is due to the enormous work of insurers, who collect statistical data every day, analyze it, and study existing risks.

Story
The first insurance policy in human history was the Marine Insurance Act, issued in 1347. The first insurance of human life took place in London in 1583 by his vice-burgomaster.

The origins of automobile insurance were an accident that occurred between a car and a horse in 1898.

Russian insurance dates back to the reign of Catherine II, when, thanks to the manifesto, the first insurance institute was created. At that time, masonry buildings, plants and factories were insured. During the reign of Peter I, insurance of various goods was organized.

Thanks to a special commission created in 1826 in the Russian Empire, the first fire insurance company appeared.

In October 1921, Gosstrakh was established in the RSFSR. This decree served as an impetus for the development of the insurance industry in Soviet Russia.

In 1925, insurance activity was exclusively a state benefit, but in 1988 a law on cooperation was adopted, which served to form other non-state insurance associations. And in 1992, due to the large number of companies, an insurance law was adopted. In the same year, Gosstrakh of the RSFSR was transformed into the Russian State Insurance Company insurance company, and 18 years later, on the basis of ten territorial branches of the company, a single federal group, Rosgosstrakh LLC, was established.

Today in our country there are more than 1,200 insurance joint-stock companies and about 60,000 insurance agents.

World Habitat Day

Every year on October 6, the world celebrates World Habitat Conservation Day - an international holiday designed to draw humanity's attention to the problem of preserving the habitat of the fauna of planet Earth. This holiday was established in 1979 as part of the Berne Convention on the Conservation of European Wildlife and Natural Habitats.

Man, through his activities, has long influenced nature, changing it. Every year, more and more territories in the world become farmland, pastures, and are subject to changes due to the growth of cities, mining, construction of factories and other national economic facilities. Therefore, there are practically no places left on Earth where no human has set foot.

But uncontrolled human intervention in the laws and territories of nature has led to the irreversible extinction of hundreds of species of animals and plants. Over the 19th centuries AD, 150 species of mammals, mostly large ones, and 139 species of birds disappeared across the globe. And these numbers are not the last; today many species of the animal world are on the verge of complete extinction. But every extinct species is a very tangible and irreparable loss.

Man has learned a lot: he escaped into space, flew to the Moon, but he will not be able to create a tour or Steller’s cow again. Everything that disappears in the animal world disappears forever.

And World Habitat Conservation Day reminds all of humanity that all of us, humans, are only a part of nature and we owe everything we have to it. Therefore, this day is aimed at attracting the attention of the world community to the destructive impact of the anthropogenic factor on the environment.

Iraida Controversial

The national holiday “Iraida Spornaya” is celebrated on October 6 (according to the old style - September 23). In the Orthodox church calendar, this is the day of veneration of the martyr Raisa (Iraida) of Alexandria. Other names for the holiday: “Raisa”, “John’s Day”, “John the Baptist”, “Stove Coal Charm”. Controversial Iraida was nicknamed because of the weather, which could rarely be predicted on this day. On October 6, the real cold autumn began.

One day, coming to a source for water, Saint Iraida saw a ship filled with women and men in chains. These were monks, clergy and ordinary people captured for their Christian faith. Iraida at that very moment wished to join them. On the ship she was baptized and received the name Raisa. Upon the ship's arrival in the Egyptian city of Antipolis, she was the first to be tortured and tortured, after which she was executed. Following her, all the prisoners accepted the same fate.

In Rus' there was an interesting custom for this day. People who had problems with money wondered about their fate. To do this, you had to go to the confluence of two rivers and fill two jugs with the same amount of water. Then these jugs had to be brought home and observed from which the water would evaporate faster. If the water drawn from a more full-flowing river begins to decrease earlier, it means that financial troubles will continue.

At the same time, guessing about fate was considered useless - nothing could be changed anyway.

“Don’t swear off money or prison,” people said. But it was completely forbidden to count your troubles: they said: “As many as you count, you will call upon them.”

But they tried to attract good luck. In order to always be profitable, a coin with a flaw was placed in the wallet, but it was definitely not picked up on the road, but received from someone - as payment for labor, for goods sold, or as change.

On October 6, there was also a custom of burning coals in Russian stoves. “The conspiracy for the coals” was whispered by the housewives early in the morning. This was done so that the ovens retained heat longer, and the bread and food placed in the oven were well baked, cooked and did not burn. The conspiracy contained the following words:

“Give the baked goods an equal share with the woman’s share, mother!” Keep the coal, ash and liver on the hearth!”

Another tradition of this day was the baking of “nalivushki” - open pies, similar to modern cheesecakes. For liqueurs, potatoes were boiled, mashed into puree, which was generously flavored with butter, milk and eggs until a creamy mass was obtained. Sochny was rolled out from rye dough, potato filling was poured into the middle, the edges of the sochny were lifted and slightly wrapped. Sweet liqueurs were often baked for children, the filling of which consisted of cottage cheese, sour cream and honey.

Events of October 6 that happened around the world, in different years

On October 6, 1921, Gosstrakh of the RSFSR began its activities. And this date became the day of the birth of insurance activity in Russia.
On this day, the Council of People's Commissars of the RSFSR adopted the decree “On State Property Insurance,” which marked the actual beginning of the further development of state property insurance in our country. It was envisaged to organize insurance of private households in all rural and urban areas against fires, loss of livestock, hail damage to crops, as well as accidents on water and land transport routes.
The Main Directorate of State Insurance (Gosstrakh) was organized as part of the People's Commissariat of Finance, and urban and rural insurance bodies were created locally.
In the USSR, objective prerequisites for the demonopolization of the insurance market arose in connection with the law on cooperation adopted by the Supreme Soviet of the USSR on May 26, 1988, which provided for the possibility of creating cooperative insurance institutions.
During this period, the first alternatives to the USSR State Insurance system began to be created insurance organizations(ASKO, Progress, Rossiya, etc.). This process received a logical continuation in connection with the approval by the Council of Ministers of the USSR of the “Regulations on joint stock companies limited liability”, and then the adoption of the RSFSR Law “On Insurance” (1992), when the formation of new insurance companies became widespread.
Insurance is a special type of economic relationship designed to provide insurance protection to people and their businesses from various types of dangers.
In personal insurance, the object of insurance is property interests related to the life, health, ability to work and pension provision of the policyholder or the insured person. Personal insurance includes:

Planet Ruler: Venus. Responsible for charm and harmony. The influence of Venus is ideal for those who work in the beauty industry and marriage agents. The planet in exile is Mars. Responsible for lack of determination, as well as doubts in one’s own abilities.

Those born on October 6 under the sign of Libra are sociable, friendly, and approachable. They easily get along with people and put them at ease. Libras make friends quickly and do not lack attention from members of the opposite sex. In their personal lives they are characterized by a certain frivolity. Libra tends to demand devotion and fidelity from a partner. Representatives of this sign love adventure. They are not averse to trying their hand at implementing outright adventures. Everyday life makes them sad.

Those born on October 6 run the risk of getting too carried away by sensual sensations, chasing more and more exciting impressions. Women born on October 6th will give everything for love. They will not allow marriage or other social institutions to come between them and the object of their passion. In this regard, they are immoral and are capable of flaunting their feelings in a completely shameless manner. Men born on this day are less romantic in matters of love; they are more attracted to the romance of adventure, discovery, and danger.

Those born on October 6th are often highly valued as wonderful friends, not because of their loyalty or support of those around them, but simply because they are fun to be around. They add a frivolous mood to any party, preferring to be the center of attention. They enjoy being admired and feed off the energy of their listeners. Although those born on October 6 have an undeniable talent for entertaining friends, family and colleagues, and their extremely cheerful attitude usually encourages others, after a while the irrepressible buffoonery begins to become boring and gradually irritate. Sometimes it even seems that those born on this day deliberately deny the seriousness and deep meaning of life. The less sophisticated of them are sometimes so carried away by entertainment and a devil-may-care attitude towards everything that they end up losing what they have.

Most people born on October 6th, however, are reasonably optimistic. Despite their overflowing cheerfulness, there is a firmness in their character that allows them to weigh the consequences of their actions and the likelihood of success. Some of those born on this day may even be ruthless in achieving their goals. Those born on October 6 love modern conveniences, but at the same time are traditional in their tastes and interests. They can make their lifestyle elegant and enjoyable. However, they should beware of becoming too accustomed to comfort and luxury.
