**New Delhi, February 7, 2025** – Valentine’s Week 2025 is officially underway, beginning with Rose Day on February 7th and culminating with Valentine’s Day on February 14th. This annual celebration of love and affection encompasses a week of themed days, each offering unique ways to express feelings for romantic partners, friends, and family.
Rose Day, the first day, sees the gifting of roses to convey emotions, with different colors carrying distinct meanings. The tradition, rooted in ancient civilizations and linked to the legend of Saint Valentine, a 3rd-century Roman priest who defied an emperor’s ban on marriage, sets the tone for the week.
The week continues with Propose Day (February 8th), Chocolate Day (February 9th), Teddy Day (February 10th), Promise Day (February 11th), Hug Day (February 12th), and Kiss Day (February 13th), each offering a specific way to express affection. Valentine’s Day itself celebrates romantic love but increasingly includes expressions of friendship and familial bonds.
For those less enthralled with traditional Valentine’s celebrations, Anti-Valentine’s Week follows from February 15th to 21st. This lighthearted counter-celebration emphasizes self-love, healing, and embracing singlehood.
