Dominic is the patron saint of astronomers. Dominic was born in Caleruega, halfway between Osma and Aranda de Duero in Old Castile, Spain. He was named after Saint Dominic of Silos. The Benedictine abbey of Santo Domingo de Silos lies a few miles north of Caleruega. In the earliest narrative source, by Jordan of Saxony, Dominic's parents are named Felix Guzman and Juanna of Aza. The story is told that before his birth his barren mother made a pilgrimage to the Abbey at Silos, and dreamt that a dog leapt from her womb carrying a flaming torch in its mouth, and "seemed to set the earth on fire." This story drew resonance from the fact that his order became known, after his name, as the Dominican order, Dominicanus in Latin which a play on words interpreted as Domini canis: "Dog of the Lord." Jordan adds that Dominic was brought up by his parents and a maternal uncle who was an archbishop. The failure to name his parents is not unusual, since Jordan wrote a history of the Order's early years, rather than a biography of Dominic. A later source, still of the 13th century, also gives their names as Juana and Felix.Nearly a century after Dominic's birth, a local author asserted that Dominic's father was "vir venerabilis et dives in populo suo" ("an honoured and wealthy man in his village"). The travel narrative of Pero Tafur, written circa 1439 (about a pilgrimage to Dominic's tomb in Italy), states that Dominic's father belonged to the family de Guzmán, and that his mother belonged to the Aça or Aza family.Dominic's mother, Jane of Aza, was beatified by Pope Leo XII in 1828.

Dominic est le saint patron des astronomes. Dominic est né à Caleruega, à mi-chemin entre Osma et Aranda de Duero dans la Vieille Castille, en Espagne. Il a été nommé d’après saint Dominique de Silos. L’abbaye bénédictine de Saint-Domingue-de-Silos se trouve à quelques kilomètres au nord de Caleruega. Dans la première source narrative, par la Jordanie de Saxe, les parents de Dominic sont nommés Felix Guzman et Juanna d’Aza. L’histoire est racontée qu’avant sa naissance, sa mère stérile a fait un pèlerinage à l’abbaye de Silos, et a rêvé qu’un chien sauta de son ventre portant une torche enflammée dans sa bouche, et « semblait mettre le feu à la terre ». Cette histoire a tiré la résonance du fait que son ordre est devenu connu, d’après son nom, comme l’ordre dominicain, Dominicanus en latin qui un jeu sur les mots interprété comme Domini canis: « Chien du Seigneur. » Jordan ajoute que Dominic a été élevé par ses parents et un oncle maternel qui était archevêque. L’omission de nommer ses parents n’est pas inhabituelle, puisque Jordan a écrit une histoire des premières années de l’Ordre, plutôt qu’une biographie de Dominic. Une source ultérieure, encore du 13ème siècle, donne également leurs noms comme Juana et Felix.Près d’un siècle après la naissance de Dominic, un auteur local a affirmé que le père de Dominic était « vir venerabilis et plonge dans le suo popul » (« un homme honoré et riche dans son village »). Le récit de voyage de Pero Tafur, écrit vers 1439 (sur un pèlerinage à la tombe de Dominic en Italie), affirme que le père de Dominic appartenait à la famille de Guzmán, et que sa mère appartenait à la famille Aça ou Aza. La mère de Dominic, Jane d’Aza, fut béatifiée par le pape Léon XII en 1828.

The small black snakes appear at the church of Panagia of Langouvarda on the site of a monastery, established as a nunnery and dedicated to Our Lady of Langouvarda. The myth about these snakes is attached to the year the monastery was attacked by pirates in 1705. The nuns prayed fervently to the Virgin Mary for protection and were subsequently transformed into the snakes to avoid being taken as prisoners. The snakes have a small cross on their head and their tongues are also in the shape of a cross. They are known to belong to the Telescopus fallax species, also known as the European Cat Snake, and they appear in and around the courtyard of the church, on the walls and on the bell tower. The snakes show no fear while the services are held and are harmless during the festivities. As soon as the Liturgy concludes on the 15th of August, they become hostile and aggressive and disappear back into the wilderness of the area. The snakes cannot be found until the following year. The inhabitants of the villages consider them to be holy, collecting them and setting them on the silver icon of the Virgin of the Snakes (Panagia Fidoussa). It has been documented by the locals that during World War II and the year of the island's destructive 1953 earthquake in August, the snakes failed to appear. The locals now use this as a sign that if the snakes do not show just before the 15th of August that something bad is imminent.
