Today it is Dies Fastus – normal working day on which modern Romans may do their daily civic businesses. Keep in mind that today is Dies Ater – Unlucky day. There were several kinds of such days in Ancient Rome: dies vitiosi, postrudiani, etc., but their exact meaning and differences are not clear enough for us – Romans of today. We discourage modern Romans from starting new projects, making journeys, signing contracts or going surfing or skiing or doing anything risky at all. You better avoid addressing and offering a sacrifice to celestial Gods and Goddesses on this day. Get home, drink some wine and read a good book instead!
It is the fourth day before Nonae Ianuariae.
It is the B nundial day, 3 days before Nundinae – the market day this year.
