It’s rare that I do one, but I just made a protected post. If you should feel the urge, all my friends are privy to my latest tribulation at work.
February 21st
Some sources say Feralia lasted for one day only, which is variously stated as the 17th and 21st. Others extend it over a period of 11 days, from the night of the 8th to the day of the 18th. Instituted by Numa Pompilius, this is the last day of Mania and Parentalia. Family reunions are held and the Lares, the ancestral spirits guarding homes, are honored. This is the Roman All Souls’ Day, during which each household makes offerings at the graves of its dead. The spirits of the dead are abroad in the world and hover over their graves. Food and goods are left to appease them. Mania takes part in the festivals of the Compitalia and the Feralia.
This is the birthday of Patricia Telesco.
The 8th day of Parmutit is the Day of counting the partos of the eye of Horus.
