Io Saturnalia!
Dec. 25th, 2006 05:40 pmFor those who are followers of the Nova Roma path, and to all who honor the Roman deities, Happy Saturnalia!
For those who honor the Invincible Sun in all His/its many forms, a very Happy Birthday of the Sun to you! (For those from more Northern climes who wonder why I didn't say this at Yule, it's because at the more moderate latitudes the rising spot of the sun really does seem to just not move on the horizon from about the 19th to about the 23rd, thus "sol-stice," Sun-stands-still. The 24th or the 25th is when the newly growing light is actually measurable by sundial in Rome; thus the Roman celebrations come a few days after the Germanic Yule.)
And for those whose culture and/or religion are Christian, Merry Christmas!
