March: Bridge between Winter and Spring

The month of March gets its name from Martius, the first month of the ancient Roman calendar. Martius was named after Mars, the Roman god associated with war and believed to be an ancestor of the Roman people through his twin sons Romulus and Remus. According to legend, Romulus founded the city of Rome and the Roman Kingdom. Mars’s month Martius was considered the start of the season for warfare, and the festivals held in his honor during the month were paralleled by other activities held in October when the season ended.

Until around 153 BC Martius was also the start of the Roman calendar year, and several religious observances in the first part of the month began as New Year’s celebrations. March is the first month of spring in the Northern Hemisphere, which includes Europe, North America, Asia, and a section of Africa, and it is the first month of fall in the Southern Hemisphere, which encompasses South America part of Africa, and Oceania.

One of the most iconic quotes about March says that the month “comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb,” meaning that the wintry weather at the start of March gives way to balmy spring-like days at the end. Over the centuries, this idea has been reiterated in various forms by writers and poets, some of whom are represented below, along with other thoughts and feelings about March that may inspire you or make you laugh as you look forward to the official start of spring on the 20th.
