The End of the Year

 Welcome to Toni Taddeo's Tuesday 4 in the new year.  We wish you a very Happy New Year! 


January is named for  Janus the two faced god who looked into the past and future. Some believe he was Noah who may have been worshipped by his progeny. He certainly looked into the pre flood world and the new world.  

The Anglo Saxons called January Wulfsmoanth meaning Month of the Wolf and the Wolf moon appears in January.

1.  January 1, 1892 Ellis Island opened it's doors.  Did any of your relations enter the United States through Ellis Island?  If not, do you know your family's history?

2. Januray's birth stone is garnet and the flower is the carnation.  Do you have favorite gem stones or flowers?

3. January 6 is Epiphany. Many take that day as the final day of the Christmas celebration and take down their decor.   What about you?

4. There is some scientific  evidence that January can set the tone for your entire year. What do you think of this? Do you make resolutions, etc? Do you pick a word of the year or have any traditions like that?
