Why did you play dura on your birthday?

Usually, people blow out the birthday candles on the cake on their birthdays. The tradition of blowing out candles on birthdays originated in ancient Greece. The Greeks often offered sacrifices to themis, the goddess of hunting and the moon, on her birthday. In memory of Al themis, people will prepare a round honey cake in advance and put it in the temple. The round cake reminds people of the moon. Around the cake, people will put some big candles to imitate the brilliance of the moon. During the worship, people knelt down to thank Al themis and blew out the candles. From this custom, the tradition of wishing before blowing out candles has been preserved.
