Patron saint of business people and of Cremona

Saint Homobonus (Italian: Sant'Omobono, German: Sankt Gutmann, Lombard: San Mobon) is the patron saint of business people, tailors, shoemakers, and clothworkers, as well as of Cremona, Italy. He was canonized in 1199 at the urgent request of the citizens of Cremona. He died on November 13, 1197 and his feast day is celebrated on November 13. He was a merchant from Cremona, northern Italy. Born Omobono Tucenghi, he was a married layman who believed that God had allowed him to work in order that he would be able to support people living in a state of poverty. His name is derived from the Latin homo bonus ("good man"). Homobonus was able to pursue this calling in life easily as a result of the inheritance he received from his father, a prosperous tailor and merchant. He practiced his business at Cremona with scrupulous honesty[citation needed]. He also donated a large proportion of his profits to the relief of the poor. Homobonus was a frequent church attendee that would partake in the Eucharist every day. While attending mass, prostrated in the form of a cross, on November 13, 1197, Homobonus died. Fourteen months later Homobonus was canonized by Pope Innocent III. In the bull of Homobonus's canonization Pope Innocent III called him "father of the poor", "consoler of the afflicted", "assiduous in constant prayer", "man of peace and peacemaker", "a man good in name and deed", "this saint, is still like a tree planted by streams of water that yields its fruit in our time."

The church of Sant'Omobono in Rome is dedicated to him.

Homobonus in popular culture [ edit ]

In recent years, statuettes of Saint Homobonus are being sold as novelty items or executive toys in the United States.[citation needed] As the patron saint of business people, Homobonus has become a relevant figure in corporate culture. In Italy a comune is named after him (Sant'Omobono Terme). In Rome, there is a church named after him (Sant'Omobono).

What is a Scorpios favorite candy?

Virgo - Candy Corn (gross, why bother) Libra - Gummy Bears. Scorpio - Twizzlers. Sagittarius - Skittles.

fm106.iheart.com - Your favorite candy according to your Zodiac Sign (LIST) | FM106.1

Halloween is just a few weeks away (THE BEST HOLIDAY EVER, AMIRIGHT?!?!), and I just want to make sure that your stretchy pants are ready for all of the candy you're going to inhale. Sure, you can stock up on candy now for the kids on the 31st, but let's be honest ... you'll eat at least half of the bag by then if not the whole thing.

Hungry yet?

I found this article on what your favorite Halloween candy is based on your Zodiac Sign. My birthday is June 16th (I like presents), which makes me a Gemini. According to this, Nerds are my go to candy. I like Nerds, don't get me wrong ... but they don't top Reese's. Ever. "Geminis are quirky, fun, and honestly, kind of nerdy in the best way possible. Accentuate your intelligence with some sweet and crunchy Nerds; maybe even get a few Nerds ropes, if you're feeling ~wild~. After all, Nerds are great in and of themselves, but everyone knows the ropes are downright impossible to resist."

Here's the rest of the list:

Aquarius - Sour Patch Kids

Pisces - Milky Way

Aries - Hot Tomales

Taurus - Reese's Peanut Butter Cups

Cancer - M&Ms

Leo - Twix

Virgo - Candy Corn (gross, why bother)

Libra - Gummy Bears

Scorpio - Twizzlers

Sagittarius - Skittles

Capricorn - Tootsie Pops

Does your sign correlate with your favorite candy? I'm so sorry, Virgos & Capricorns ... you got cheated.
