Firstly, how did February get to be February?
February, the shortest month of the year, got its name from the Roman festival Februa, essentially an ancient version of a spa day dedicated to purification. Imagine ancient Romans looking at their calendars, realizing they've just survived January with its endless nights and overambitious New Year's resolutions, thinking, "What we need is a good cleanse." So, they named February after Februa, deciding it was the perfect time to hit the Roman baths, not just to wash off the regret of buying yet another unused gym membership, but also to prepare for the coming spring by ceremonially saying goodbye to winter (and perhaps a few stubborn holiday pounds).
It's as if the Romans understood that by February, most of us would need a restart button on those New Year's resolutions. So, they dedicated the month to purification, sweeping homes and souls clean of last year's mess, all in the chilly embrace of the year's shortest month. It's the time of year when you're meant to detox your spirit (and your pantry), making room for the new seeds of spring. Thanks to February, we have an annual excuse to declutter our lives, or at least to pretend we're going to, until we get distracted by Valentine's chocolate.
