Day 74 / 2022 Photo Project365

The 15th of March a.k.a.: “the Ides of March” is the 74th day of the Roman calendar, with great historical, cultural and religious significance. Turns out the 15th of any month is the “ides” of that month, a day/date which was considered by ancient Romans as sacred to Jupiter, their supreme deity. It seems that Jupiter had 12 holidays per year (at minimum) in his honor…

But waaaaaay more important than history and Jupiter, is the fact that today, Tuesday March 15th, is also the 74th day of my 2022
