The Truth About February

Origins of February: February is an interesting and somewhat enigmatic month, standing as the shortest month in the Gregorian calendar with a unique 28 or 29-day structure. The name “February” has its roots in the Latin word “Februarius,” which is derived from “Februa,” an ancient Roman festival of purification. This festival, held on February 15th, was a time of cleansing and renewal, meant to purify individuals and prepare them for the coming year. The word “februum” itself means “purification” or “purging” in Latin, highlighting the month’s association with the concept of renewal and fresh starts.

Historically, February was the last month of the Roman calendar, which is why it was seen as a time to clear out the old and make way for the new. The tradition of purification, through rituals and ceremonies, marked the transition into a new period, embodying the essence of starting afresh.
