Around The World

According to the Christian Church calendar, the Virgin Mary was born on this day. *** The Eve of the Festival of Venus was celebrated annually on this date by the ancient Romans. On this night, the goddess of love and beauty was honoured and invoked with prayers, love songs, libations, and passionate lovemaking. It was also a time when sorceresses performed all forms of love magik and marriage-mate divinations. ((( I wonder why on this day - when Her day is a Friday. Food for thought. I think I will personally honour Her on Friday.))) XXX
