Lupercalia is a Pagan/Roman Feast of All that honors the coming of spring, purification of the city of Rome, and the bringing of life, or fertility.
These festivities included sacrifice to Faunus, the God of Agriculture, and the founders Romulus and Remus.
They ate the meat sacrificed, used the skins for clothing and protection, made broth with the bones etc, etc. Each piece of the animal sacrificed had a purpose.
The festival also included a matchmaking game where the people celebrating would put their names in a bowl & pick one after shuffling. They would meet with whomever they pulled from the dish & often times the matches became marriages.

The Catholic Church began transitioning Pagan/Roman faith into the modern Christianity/Catholicism that the people know today. This particular festival links to the Roman Catholic Saint Valentine because it is said that he was a major part in baptism, and bringing people towards Christianity, but also that he was decapitated for wedding soldiers because “single men made better soldiers,” according to Emperor Claudius II.
It has also been said that St. Valentine healed a blind child’s vision, and the day he was martyred- they found a note for the child in his cell that said “Your Valentine.”
Lupercalia became outlawed, and deemed un-Christian, and Pope Gelasius declared February 14th St. Valentine’s Day to honor the Patron Saint of Lovers, Beekeepers, and Travelers.

In 1380, Geoffrey Chaucer wrote the poem “The Parliament of Fowls” which read the following lines
“For this was seynt on Valentyne’s Day, Whan every foul cometh ther to choose his mate.”
In the middle ages, Valentine greetings were popular, but written Valentine’s started to appear in the early 1400s. The oldest Valentine still written today comes from a poem the Duke of Orleans wrote to his wife while he was a prisoner in the London Tower in 1415.
By the middle of the 15th century, the English had adopted Valentine’s Day as a celebration for the coming of spring, where matchmaking was considered a good omen for the paired couple’s future marriage.

Often brushed off as a Hallmark Holiday, today Valentine’s Day is a celebration of love, couples, and most importantly friendship.
To honor this, I spend 3 days on readings for relationships, karmic & divine flames, and the connections made in your path.
