Did you know that March wasn’t always the third month of the year? In the ancient Roman calendar, March was actually the first month! That’s right! March originally kicked off the year with celebrations of new beginnings, planting, and, naturally, a lot of parties to welcome the spring season. Imagine New Year’s resolutions happening while the snow is still melting!
And here’s another quirky tidbit: the name “March” comes from Mars, the Roman god of war. So every time you march into March, you’re technically stepping into a month named after a warrior! Perhaps that’s why March is often full of energy, bold beginnings, and the occasional chaotic weather shift. It’s the perfect month to embrace both surprises and new adventures.
