a. d. VIII Kal Iun C: Dedication day of three temples to Fortuna Publica (194), Fors Fortuna, and Fortuna Primigenia (52) on the Quirinal.

Pliny wrote that, "throughout the whole world, in all places and at all times, Fortuna alone is invoked, alone commended, alone accused and subjected to reproaches; deemed volatile and indeed, by most men, blind as well, wayward, capricious, fickle in Her favors and favoring the unworthy. To Her is debited all that is spent, and to Her is credited all that is received; She alone fills both pages in the ledger of mortals' accounts; and we are so subject to chance that Fortuna Herself takes the place of God; She proves that God is uncertain" (Nat. Hist. 2.22).

Go, Quirites, celebrate with joy the goddess of Good Fortune (Ovid Fasti 6.775)
