This quirky tradition, celebrated every year between March 1st and 9th, is a mix of folklore, superstition, and pure weather-driven anxiety. It’s fun, it’s random, and it’s the closest thing we have to a personal weather-based fortune-teller.
What Are Babele and Where Do They Come From?
Babele (which literally means “The Old Women”) originates from the legend of Baba Dochia, a cranky old lady who defies the seasons. The story goes that she set out on a journey wearing nine heavy coats, thinking winter would last forever. But as the weather warmed up, she kept peeling them off—until a sudden cold snap froze her solid. Talk about bad timing!
Over time, this legend evolved into a fun yearly tradition where people choose a “Baba” (one of the nine days) to predict their year ahead.
