Celebrating 365 Days of Legends, Folklore and Spirituality for Nov. 13 – Juno – The Feronia

Juno – The Feronia

Feronia was a Goddess of spring flowers and woods (also associated with Flora) and, although this day was named for her, it became a day of recognition for juno, Minera, and Jupiter. The celebration took place on the Capitoline Hill where all three were enshrined. Juno was the sister-wife of Jupiter, forming a triad with Minerva. The festival would have included an animal sacrifice and an evening torch light processional.
