New Worlds of Body, Mind & Spirit Since 1901

Color of the day: Brown Incense of the day: Sage Meditrina was a Roman goddess of healing. Libations in her name were made by drinking both old and new wines and stating that one was healed. The actual date of her festival, Meditrinalia, hinged on the harvest; it could occur anywhere from early to mid-October. Some scholars believe it was celebrated for the duration of that time, and that the goddess was created after the reason for the libation. A modern twist on this festival is to see how to mix and match the old and new in your life. What needs harvesting? What needs healing? What can be joined together, and what needs to be separated out? What needs to move in a new direction? Pour a libation of your favorite beverage in honor of Meditrina, celebrate your accomplishments, and declare yourself healed. |
