JANUAR

When the clock strikes twelve on New Year’s Eve and
December passes into January, we say farewell to the year just
gone and we hail the New Year ahead. It is fitting that this first
month should be called January, for the Roman god Janus who
gave this month its name was always represented with two faces,
one that gazed at the past and one that looked to the future.
However, before the name January was adopted in England, this
month was called Wulf-Mōnath, or “wolf-month,” because at this
time of the year the bitter cold brought wolves into the villages to
forage for food.

This month was named after the Roman

god Janus,latin word ( Januarius)
known as the protector of gates and
doorways who symbolize beginnings
and endings. Janus is depicted with two
faces, one looking into the past, the
other with the ability to see into the
future.
