Abstract

In this paper, which is part of a Master (The psychological meaning of the liturgical Apodosis of Christian feasts), a psychological interpretation of the spiritualization of time is attempted, which is experienced by every believer during the Apodosis of a Christian feast. Institution, after seven days of a feast (i.e. Apodosis), originated from the Jewish Sabbath, passed away and is a global ― although Christian has been replaced today with Sunday ― a springboard for humanitarian, ecological, moral, social, qualitative, cultural, socioeconomic, political and spiritual guides, measures and related initiatives. Thus, Sunday, and every festive Apodosis is an extremely necessary existence-psychological act, function, experience and situation for each person, if the person wants to remain human, and mainly free from any kind (material or mental) addictions and idols.
