January is named after Janus, the Roman god of
doorways and of beginnings and endings. He is represented with a two sided
head, one looking ahead and the other always looking behind. He symbolically
represented that Rome was the first real civilization, looking back at those
primitive cultures before them. Some Roman coins showed him with and without
beards, even occasionally with four heads. Janus is also one of Saturn's moons.

pink carnation represents a Mother's undying love. |
