Going to bed late on this day is not recommended, as it may attract evil spirits.

Avoid negative emotions
Cursing and showing negativity on Proclus' day can turn against the person himself.
Negative situations that occur today may return in the future with double force.

Entrance doors should not be left open. Protect the entrance to your home from dark forces.
Don't do any repairs
Today is not the best day for home renovations or rearranging furniture.
However, cleaning during this time will prove beneficial.

Drive away evil spirits
On this day, it is customary to curse evil spirits and drive them away with the help of words and rituals.

The sleigh route opens on Proklov Day. So you can safely go on sleigh rides.
Before you leave, don't forget to ask Saint Proclus for help and good luck on your journey.
