Today it is Dies Comitialis – almost the same as Dies FASTI, but these days are reserved for public gatherings of Romans – comitia. So, if your local community is going to appoint a gathering to discuss certain matters and make decisions – these days are just perfect for that!
It is the 6th day before Idus Ianuariae.
It is the H nundial day, the 5th day before Nundinae – the market day this year.
On this day Romans worship: – Iustitia, Goddess Justitia was introduced by emperor Augustus, and was thus not a very old deity in the Roman pantheon. Justice is one of the virtues celebrated by emperor Augustus in his clipeus virtutis, and a temple of Iustitia was established in Rome by emperor Tiberius. Iustitia became a symbol for the virtue of justice with which every emperor wished to associate his regime; emperor Vespasian minted coins with the image of the goddess seated on a throne called Iustitia Augusta, and many emperors after him used the image of the goddess to proclaim themselves protectors of justice. Though formally called a goddess with her own temple and cult shrine in Rome, it appears that she is from the onset viewed more as an artistic symbolic personification rather than as an actual deity with religious significance.
