5 April is the ancient Roman feast day sacred to #Fortuna, Rome's goddess of fate and luck. Today bold #Mars aligns with determined #Saturn in coldly calculating #Aquarius to remind you "audentes Fortuna adiuvat" (fortune favors the audacious). More here: https://t.co/0mNvS081Iv

We have checked the internet up and down, also the publicized inventory of the British Library, usually a sure source of knowledge.
Any hint is very welcome.

#OnThisDay, the Veneralia festival, in honor of Venus Verticordia and Fortuna Virilis. And for #FrescoFriday, an image of seated Venus from the 4th century CE. Found in #Rome and now in the Museo Nazionale Romano, Palazzo Massimo alle Terme.

(1) ROMAN EMPIRE (509 BC - 1453 AD)
THE Empire
Pax Romana
"The grandeur that was Rome" - enduring both as empire, and in its influence or legacy
