Under the protection of the goddess Flora: Goddess of flowers, gardens, spring and fertility in mythology, Flora (or Flora) was a deity venerated by the Romans. Great floral games were organized in her honor so that she could offer the people good harvests for the year. Let them be guided by their auras to welcome the beautiful season with the Flore square notebook. Inspired by According to Ovid, Flora has its roots in Greek mythology, where she was then called Chloris. This nymph of the Fortunate Isles was endowed with incredible beauty, to the point of seducing Zephyr, god of the west wind. After having kidnapped her, he married her and offered her for domain the empire of flowers and eternal spring. The people of the Sabines took over from the Greeks this cult of a divinity of flowers. They called her Flora, and marked the arrival of spring with festivals in her honor. Convinced of the power of Flora, the Romans organized great festivals in her honor. These festivities, called Floralies (Floralia), lasted five days during the spring. Originally, the Floralies did not take place every year: they were celebrated only when the weather and the climate foreshadowed poor harvests. It was not until 114 BC that the Senate decided to make these floral games annual, following the sterility of the land which lasted for several years and which was naturally attributed to the anger of Flora. The Floralies were therefore organized each year at the end of April until the beginning of May. The celebrations took place at night with torches, in a rural atmosphere where young women performed dances, songs and dramatic performances. A naive dance expressing joy and spring renewal was made especially in honor of the goddess and hunts were also organized in a circus dedicated to the event, called the circus of Flora. But soon, these festivities degenerated into a licentious spectacle, punctuated by obscene dances performed by naked courtesans. Cato, a Roman statesman and writer, attended and, shocked by this atmosphere of perversion to honor a goddess, could not sustain the show until the end.
