Celebrations for March

Notes

March is named for Mars, the Roman god of war, known for his ferocity in battle and his impeccable taste in armor, who once tried to take a vacation. Picture him swapping his battle attire for a Hawaiian shirt and flip-flops, attempting to blend in at the beach. Instead of commanding legions, he's now wrestling with a beach umbrella that refuses to stay put and mistaking sunscreen for war paint. His idea of a "peaceful retreat" involves challenging Poseidon to a friendly game of beach volleyball and sending mischievous seagulls to steal Neptune's trident. Despite his efforts to relax, Mars can't help but strategize the perfect sandcastle siege, proving that even the god of war needs a little R&R—though his version includes a bit more conquest and a lot more SPF.

March Merriment celebrates the transition from winter to spring with whimsy and wonder.

Welcome to the March Merriment, where the promise of spring mingles with the playful spirit of mischief! March is not just about marking the transition from winter to spring—it's a 31-day cavalcade of celebrating the unsung moments that make life brighter. March has everything from tipping your hat to the first brave crocus pushing through the snow to the annual debate of whether it's too early to pack away the winter coat. Don your green attire early for St. Patrick's Day and keep it on for the rest of the month's verdant vibrancy. Get ready to salute the stubborn snow shovel for one last hurrah and perhaps even engage in leprechaun spotting. March is where whimsy and wonder are just around the corner, waiting to be greeted with open arms and a ready smile. Let the March merriment commence, a delightful dance into the dawning of spring!

Firstly, how did March get to be March?

March was famously named not after the action of walking in a straight line but after Mars, the Roman god of war, apparently because the Romans thought spring was the perfect time for a bit of conquest and gardening. Imagine ancient Roman generals, fresh from a winter cooped up, looking at the blossoming daffodils and thinking, "What a splendid time for a skirmish!" Thus, March became the month where you could simultaneously plant your petunias and plan your pillaging. It's as if Mars himself looked down upon the Earth, saw the flowers blooming, and declared, "Ah yes, the perfect backdrop for dramatic battle scenes." So, while we might think of March as the month for spring cleaning, the Romans were all about spring conquering, making it the only time of year when it was perfectly acceptable to wield a sword in one hand and a watering can in the other.
