Ash Wednesday: the beginning of Lent

Ash Wednesday (Latin: Feria quarta cinerum) marks the beginning of the forty-day period of fasting before Easter for Catholic believers. With the ashes of the burnt palm branches from the previous year, the faithful are blessed with a cross on their foreheads. Lent is a reminder of the 40 days that Jesus spent fasting and praying in the desert. The ash cross is one of the signs of salvation in the sacramentals.
