Today's Goddess: Thalia

About Thalia: Among the Greek muses, Thalia is the goddess of festivity and humor. She inspires today's celebration with unbridled revelry and joyfulness to round out the year on a playful, upbeat note.
To Do Today: During the Middle Ages, around this time of year, a mock religious ritual took place, much like the impious Saturnalia. Normal roles were often reversed, and reverence went by the wayside, replaced by fun and pleasure. I see no reason not to follow the example of our ancestors and give ourselves time to frolic a bit today. Do something that energizes you, inspires you, or makes you laugh out loud. For example, throw yourself a party complete with silly decorations and hats. Watch your favorite comedy flicks with folks who make you feel good, and generally let Thalia live through (and in ) in your pleasure. To keep Thalia's playful, enthusiastic energy with you, bless an amethyst ( for joy and luck),
Saying,
"Thalia, inspire my humor and muse;
throughout my life, joy diffuse."
Carry this with you anytime you feel your sense of humor waning.
