Ok, I will ask, what is St. John's day? I thought that John the Baptist day is in June, but I could be wrong.
There are 2 St John's Days, June 24 St John the Baptist
(John the Baptist is mentioned by the Roman Jewish historian Josephus[22] and revered as a major religious figure[23] in Christianity, Islam, the Baháʼí Faith,[24] and Mandaeism. He is called a prophet by all of these faiths, and is honoured as a saint in many Christian traditions. According to the New Testament, John anticipated a messianic figure greater than himself,[25] and the Gospels portray John as the precursor or forerunner of Jesus,[26] since John announces Jesus' coming and prepares the people for Jesus' ministry.)
and December 27 St Johns Day the Evangelist.
(Christian tradition says that John the Evangelist was John the Apostle. The Apostle John was one of the "pillars" of the Jerusalem church after Jesus' death.[7] He was one of the original twelve apostles and is thought to be the only one to have not been killed for his faith. It had been believed that he was exiled (around 95 AD) to the Aegean island of Patmos, where he wrote the Book of Revelation.)
St. John's Day, Masonic feast
Freemasons historically celebrate two feasts of saints who are both named John. The feast of John the Baptist falls on 24 June, and that of John the Evangelist on 27 December, roughly marking mid-summer and mid-winter. During the Eighteenth Century, the Premier Grand Lodge of England and the Grand Lodge of Ireland favoured the day of John the Baptist, while the Grand Lodge of Scotland, the Ancient Grand Lodge of England and the Grand Lodge of All England at York installed their Grand Masters on the feast day of John the Evangelist.
