Saturnalia: 17-23 December
Mox ferias festibus agemus,
Paucas gustes Aureae Saturni Aetatis
Gaudete hoc vespero, nam omnes regulae transversae sunt!
Si placet, aliquo simplice vestitus
Iocosum pilleum Saturnalium gere!
Io, Io Saturnalia!
We very soon shall have our festive feast,
our little taste of Saturn's Golden Age.
Rejoice tonight for every rule's reversed!
Please dress in something comfortable
and wear a silly Saturnalia cap!
Happy, Happy Saturnalia!!!
— Latin Translation by Tanaquil Sergius
All AW is invited to join us for the Saturnalia Banquet for gifts and the Lord of Misrule!
