This preparatory period, as well as the Lenten period, is called the period of the Triodion, named after the liturgical book “Triodion,” which is used intensively and exclusively during this time.
This book begins and continues for several weeks with hymns and readings aimed at preparing believers for reflection and repentance. It then proceeds with six weeks during the Lenten period, culminating later with the Passion of Christ during Holy Week. Therefore, the period of the Triodion has the most spiritual significance in Orthodox Christian worship.
The Triodion will be used in the church until the celebration of the Resurrection of Christ, the Great Pascha, after which it will be replaced by another book, the “Pentecostarion.”
