V CALENDAS MARTIS MMDCCLVI A.V.C
Explanation
of various calendars
Being at the end of the original
Roman year, and preceding New Year's Day on 01 March, made this and the following
days especially representative of rebirth, renewal and full of the promise
of the coming Spring.
February is a month sacred to the gods Mars
(as Quirinus, or Romulus) and Juno, the wife of Jupiter. Juno (Hera, was the
mother of Mars. Mars was known to the Greeks as Ares, the god of war. The
war god was wild and ungovernable, a god who glorified in strife for its own
sake and revelled in slaughter. He was thought to gloat over the death and
destruction he caused. He was typically accompanied by his two sons Deimos
(Fear or Terror) and Phobos (Dismay or Flight from Fear).
In Egypt, this day was the Festival of Nut,
or Nut's birthday. Nut was the Egyptian goddess of the heavens. .
