Groundhog Day (Canadian French: Jour de la Marmotte; Pennsylvania German: Grundsaudaag, Murmeltiertag) is a traditional holiday celebrated on February 2. According to folklore, if it is cloudy when a groundhog emerges from its burrow on this day, then the spring season will come early; if it is sunny, the groundhog will supposedly see its shadow and retreat back into its den, and winter weather will persist for six more weeks.

In France we call it Chandeleur (Candlemas), and the celtic paganist european tradition is more linked to the bear, not the Groundhog. Here's the wikipedia : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Candlemas and a french folk page about it with some music : http://coeremieu.duo.free.fr/coeremieu. ... ..%22.html
